New Singapore Condo Towers Use PPVC

Two new condominium complexes will soon rise above Singapore following a USD113 million agreement between United Venture Development and Dragages Singapore, a subsidiary of Bouygues Construction.

The striking design by ADDP Architects consists of two 140-metre, 40-storey tower blocks which will create 505 apartments across a floor area of 46,000 sq.m.

Singaporean regulations dictate that 65 percent of the superstructure of the towers must employ PPVC (Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction). Dragages’ design utilises a modular construction system on a reinforced concrete structure which will see tower cranes install some 1,900 modules.

Construction is expected to begin in 2016 and last three years.
