Construction begins on the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park<\/h1><\/div>
<\/div>
Teams from Bachy Soletanche Group Limited<\/a> will be building the foundations<\/a> for the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park at Lok Ma Chau Loop. The project has reached an important milestone with the start of work on the foundations for Building 1.<\/strong><\/div>\n

The Project<\/h2><\/div>

This project involves the construction of the foundations for two sections: building 1 (section 1) and the connection area between the service networks (water, electricity, etc.) (section 2). Both sections are to be built within 11 months. Section 1 involves the installation of 28 bored piles with a diameter of 3 m, an average depth of 45 m and a widening diameter of 4.95 m into the rock socket.<\/p>\n

Crews will also install a grout curtain consisting of 282 813 mm diameter interlocking pipe piles, 52 king posts and a steel work platform. This section requires bulk excavation of a total volume of 28,300 m\u00b3, with a shoring system comprising three to four layers.<\/p>\n

Section 2 includes the construction of 4 bored piles 2 m in diameter with an average depth of 44 m and a widening 2.5 m in diameter. It also includes the installation of a grout curtain consisting of 64 813 mm diameter interlocking pipe piles.<\/p>\n

For this section, a total excavation volume of 3,143 m\u00b3 and a shoring system comprising four layers will be required. A pile cap and a concrete structure will also be built.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Addressing Challenges<\/h2><\/div>

The teams were not immune to difficulties. Indeed, the congested site area, measuring 60 m x 45 m in section 1 and 27 m x 15 m in section 2, made it difficult to coordinate simultaneous work between bored piles and pipe pile operations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To mitigate this problem, the team has prepared a step-by-step and activity-by-activity detailed program plan for work sequencing to ensure the project runs smoothly.<\/span><\/p>\n

To improve program efficiency, the teams took proactive measures to reduce project duration:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
