One of the top construction companies in this country that builds complex buildings is attracting attention as it participates as a national policy research agency for developing high-rise building technology.

Last July, Ssangyong E&C (Chairman Kim, S.Joon), successfully completed the skeleton work of the Singapore Marina Bay Sands Hotel, which was known as the most difficult to build in the world as it was inclined at a maximum of 52 degrees, announced that it was recently ed as a joint research agency of the high-rise composite building core engineering technology development project being implemented by the government.

Ssangyong E&C now participates in research and development of the high-rise composite building project team in ‘the VC-10 Tasks’ (the 10 largest tasks that can create future values) being implemented by the Ministry of Land, Transport and Marine Affairs from 2006 according to the ‘Construction and Transportation R&D Innovation Roadmap.’

Ssangyong E&C will carry out the ‘Atypical Integrated Design System Development and Research,’ which is a core task of the high-rise composite building project, until 2014 together with 23 related groups of academic circles, construction companies and design companies including Dankook University and POSCO E&C. One of the major tasks is to realize design that considers safety, functionality and economic efficiency in constructing atypical buildings that are difficult to construct as they have unique shapes such as an asymmetric or curved design.

It is expected from this research that building projects from foreign companies that are of a high difficult index will increase by utilizing the technologies that are developed based on Ssangyong E&C’s high difficulty index architectural design and building know-how.

A spokesperson of Ssangyong E&C said, “Once we successfully completed some high-class construction projects such as the work at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, we received complimentary calls from other research groups that participated in the competition,” adding, “we plan to contribute to enhancing our national technological competitiveness based on our performance and know-how of constructing high-class buildings with high difficult index. performance and know-how.”
