In modern construction, among the applied building systems there is the most universal building system which is based on the technology of monolithic construction. One of the main problems of constructing monolithic buildings is the necessity of improving the process of supplying concrete to the formwork. An expert assessment of the methods used to supply concrete to the formwork allowed to determine the scientific direction for improving this technological process. Equipping the tower crane with a vertical and horizontal concrete pipeline will create a new unit, designed not only for the installation of formwork, but also for pumping concrete mix and will serve as another scientific step towards solving the problem of automation of technological processes of monolithic construction.
