A few companies in China compete over building construction times. Examples include a 57 story tower built in 19 days and a 15 story hotel in 48 hours. These are just assembled from pre-fab components, so it might be 3 years of prep followed by a few days of assembly. I think the end goal is prestige. I'm partial to LiftBuild's method of building the central tower first, and then constructing each floor at ground level and hoisting it up the tower and into place. The bulk of construction is done on the ground, faster building with less rigging and safety requirements. I think they averaged 10 days per floor on their last build. https://www.liftbuild.com/ |
