Abstract
A new multi-award-winning development of high-rise living quarters for firefighters in Hong Kong has been successfully delivery 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.
期刊介绍：
Civil Engineering, listed by the Web of Science, is the ICE''s flagship journal. Practical and diverse in its scope, it publishes overview papers for the non-specialist on any subject relevant to civil engineering today. Topics range from landmark projects to philosophical, ethical, environmental, management and safety issues.
Peer review, copyediting, and colour publication by Civil Engineering are free. If accepted, published papers are easily found by Google search, as well as in specialist citation indexes. There is also the option of making your article open access, should you wish to.
Published authors receive a free electronic copy of their article to share with their peers. Furthermore, as well exposure to ICE''s 91,000-strong membership, published papers are promoted via our social media channels, accessing the wider civil engineering community.
It is free to submit a paper to this journal. Papers appear Ahead of Print (below) as soon as they are ready to be published. Ahead of print articles are fully citable. using the DOI system
