Reinforced concrete (RC) frames
Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames are the backbone of countless structures, offering exceptional strength and flexibility for architects, engineers, and builders alike. At MJ Rooney, we possess a wealth of experience in RC frame construction, utilising cutting-edge techniques and meticulous execution to deliver exceptional results for your project.
Using our own in-house proprietary formwork systems and innovative temporary works designs we can deliver RC Frames on time and within budget.
Advantages and disadvantages of using RC frames
ADVANTAGES
High Strength and Durability: Ideal for long-lasting, resilient structures.
Fire and Weather Resistance: Superior resistance to fire and adverse weather conditions.
Versatility in Design: Flexible design options to accommodate various architectural styles.
Cost-Effective for Large Structures: Economical for extensive projects due to material availability and longevity.
Reduced Maintenance Costs: Low maintenance requirements, saving time and resources in the long run.
DISADVANTAGES
Longer Construction Time: Typically, it takes more time to construct compared to steel frames.
Higher Initial Costs: Initial setup and material costs can be higher.
Heavier Weight: The weight of RC frames needs to be carefully considered during foundation design and overall building weight distribution.

Our formwork and falsework expertise
Formwork and falsework are crucial components in RC frame construction. Formwork serves as the temporary mold for concrete, shaping it into the desired structure. Falsework provides temporary support until the concrete achieves adequate strength.
At MJ Rooney, we use cutting-edge formwork and falsework systems to ensure precision and efficiency, minimising waste and maximizing structural integrity.
