SkyPark- A Huge Rooftop, Steel Structure Spanning Three High-rise Towers

摘要

As its name implies, SkyPark is an aerial park constructed atop three high-rise towers in Singapore (Photo 1). It measures 340 m in total length and 40 m in width. As a new landmark, SkyPark celebrated its grand opening in June 2010 and now stands out among the various facilities operated by Marine Bay Sands Pte Ltd., an integrated resort company in Singapore. A joint venture between JFE Engineering Corporation of Japan and Yongnam Engineering & Construction Pte Ltd. of Singapore was awarded the contract in April 2008 to construct the steelwork for SkyPark. The joint venture immediately commenced a detailed design and erection plan and in July 2009 started the on-site work to complete the erection of an 8,000-ton steel structure in a mere nine months.
