Project:
ZhongHua Secondary School
Developer/Owner:
Ministry of Education
Description:
Design & Build of 3 & 4 Storey Sec
School Buildings with a multi-purpose hall.

Reinforced concrete pre-cast piles were used as the building’s foundation. The first storey slab was designed as a flat-plate incorporating the pile cap as a drop panel. The other floors were designed as post-tension flat-plate supported by two-tier pre-cast columns. This system offers quick-paced construction. As the school is close to neighbouring structures, a soldier pile retaining wall construction was used; between piles a 150mm thick skin wall was cast. This method of construction minimized disturbance to the neighbouring residents.
