How The Chinese Built A 30-Storey Hotel From Scratch: Super-Fast by Nobody: 3:50pm On May 17, 2012 |
They're a 21st century super power with super computers and a super economy that's the envy of the world. Now China can claim another title - the fastest builders on the planet after putting up a 30-storey 183,000-square-foot hotel in just 15 days, or 360 hours. A construction crew in the south-central Chinese city of Changsha completed this remarkable achievement with no injuries to any worker. The Ark Hotel was built on Dongting lake, in the Hunan Province, by Broad Group, a Chinese construction company which specialises in sustainable architecture. It was built to withstand a magnitude 9 earthquake, as tested by the China Academy of Building Research, who claim this is five times more quake-resistant than conventional buildings. All the materials were prefabricated and sections built to specification off-site, so there was very little wastage. The builders took just 46 hours to finish the main structural components and another 90 hours to finish the building enclosure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdpf-MQM9vY |
