The first high-rise concrete modular integrated construction building in Hong Kong.

A new multi-award-winning development of high-rise living quarters for firefighters in Hong Kong, China has been successfully delivered using modular construction. Created from 3726 factory-made concrete modules, it is the first high-rise concrete building development in the region to adopt the 'modular integrated construction' method. This paper describes the modular construction process, the NEC-based procurement approach and the innovative technologies used in the development's design and construction, all of which contributed to a highly efficient and sustainable solution.
