- Features high-end residential units, a luxury hotel, and premium office spaces.
- Facilitated Vietnam's largest concrete pour this included installing 6,500 tonnes of steel and pouring 8.4m deep pile foundation.
- By separating the tower’s pile cap excavation from the podium basement, allowed us to cast the concrete cap earlier, cutting the programme by three months.
The record setting 'Landmark 81' stands at 150m taller than The Shard in London, dominating the city landscape in Vietnam. It is the centrepiece of Vinhomes Central Park, towering over the other 17 skyscrapers within the multi-functional ecological development.
Landmark 81's design reflects our client’s vision of a luxury development set over 81 storeys. The mixed-use tower includes high-end apartments, a hotel, executive floors and 360 degree observatory decks.
To construct the tower’s pile cap on which the foundations sit, our construction management experts planned, set up and managed the delivery of the largest continuous concrete pour ever seen in Vietnam. This involved excavating 25,000 cubic metres of soil, installing 6,500 tonnes of reinforced steel, and using 17,000 cubic metres of concrete to create the 8.5 metre thick pile cap for the tower’s foundations. This engineering feat required detailed logistical planning, including the construction of temporary roads and walkways, staircases and specially designed cooling systems.
