Pan-United Corporation’s subsidiary has completed a mass pour of concrete for casting of the raft foundation at The Skywaters at 8 Shenton Way, a building set to be Singapore’s tallest when completed in 2028, according to a release dated March 12.
The 63-storey mixed-use development tower sits on a site that spans 10,984 square metres (sqm). Pan-United says that the mass pour was executed non-stop for 35 hours with one truckload of concrete delivered to the site every two minutes, along with the project’s main contractor China Harbour Engineering Company.
This was done with its technology arm, AiR Digital, which allowed it to auto-replenish raw materials to ensure that trucks shuttled between plant and project site with no disruption.
The Skywaters is Singapore’s first project to utilise Pan-United’s Grade 105 PanU Super High-Strength Concrete which reduces the amount of concrete and reinforcements required for the raft foundation.
It is also being furnished with PanU CMC+ which is a material that traps industrial waste carbon dioxide in concrete which makes the building a carbon sink.
Shares in Pan-United closed 1 cent higher or 1.639% down at 62 cents on March 12.
