- Synopsis
- Based on the actual results of HiRC technology, our super high-rise RC structure technology, we have developed a new technology capable of constructing reinforced concrete structures up to 50 stories by making use of high strength structural materials together with the rationalization of both design and construction method. This new technology has been fully realized in the construction of The Scene Jhoku, a super high-rise RC structure of 45 stories with the height of 160m thanks to the high strength concrete with the designed compressive strength of 60 MPa using belite portland cement and the high strength reinforcing steel bar with the yield point of 700 MPa. Here in thispaper, the execution of the high strength concrete together with the outline of the construction work will be reported.
