Name of Project<\/td>\r\nExpress Rail Link XRL810A West Kowloon Terminus (WKT) Station North<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Exact location of project<\/td>\r\nThis project is the single largest project currently underway in Hong Kong with a Contract Sum of HK8.9B, carried out by the Leighton-Gammon JV. Project began in 2011 and it involves the construction of a 250,000sqm rail terminus building with 15 high speed rail tracks for the HK-GZ high-speed railway project. The West Kowloon Terminus has won many awards including Best Futura Mega Project in MIPIM Awards 2012 and Best Future Building of the Year 2015. It will be the largest below ground terminus station in the world once completed.\r\n

\r\n\t\tOverview: What is this case study and why have you selected it.\r\n\t<\/h3>\r\n\t

The focus of this case study is the construction of path-way on the roof top of the station that form “Green” Terminus featuring People-Oriented Design.\u00a0\u00a0 Lysaght Bondek II Composite Slab of 250mm thick (4 hours FRP) is designed to form part of the three hectares green plaza above terminus.<\/p>\r\n

Area of Walking Path formed using Composite Slab (1mm Lysaght Bondek II steel decking) is approximate 6500m2.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"csae-3-1\"\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"csae-3-2\"\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t

The project site used 2 pins per pan per side to fix Bondek II decking onto beam.\u00a0 Washers were used to give extra security but not mandatory.<\/p>\r\n

Though Leighton-Gammon JV’s Metal Works applicators have not come across Gas actuated System in the past, it is comparably easy for them to get familiar with the fixing method after safe operation training.<\/p>\r\n\t

Ramset Trakfast 800 Gas Actuated System has provided outstanding benefits over the other traditional methods listed below:<\/p>\r\n
