Reasons Why Malaysian Timbers are the Preferred Choice!

Sustainable Renewable Versatile Durable Diverse

Malaysian timbers, exported to more than 160 countries, have continued to be favoured and featured in building applications in various parts of the world. The remarkable performance characteristics of many Malaysian timbers have allowed architects and designers to feature timber in extraordinarily imaginative ways and time-transcending designs that match beauty with functionality.

EDITOR’SNOTE In the last couple of months, we see progress everywhere. Malaysia now moves forward under the guidance of a new government, various shakers and movers across the industries appearing in the news with their latest innovations and services, and we ourselves race against time to accomplish our objectives-of-the-day.

So in this issue, we bring you the industry’s latest progress. Firstly, featured on our cover is the 11-acre Setia EcoHill Park by S P Setia, which was awarded the

SENIOR DESIGNER Mohamad Azhar Kasim

& GLC category at this year’s Malaysian Landscape Architecture Awards (MLAA) Mulia Group took the industry by storm in 2016 with The Exchange 106, its 106-storey signature office tower in the heart of Tun Razak Exchange (TRX).

Scheduled to be completed in 3rd Quarter of 2018, Mulia is set to create waves in the industry once again as we draw closer to its completion date. Read all about The Exchange 106 in the projects section.

Another highlight is Singapore’s sparkling crown, the Jewel, at Changi Airport. Led by renowned Canadian-Israeli architect Moshe Safdie, the Jewel will not only increases Changi’s passenger handling capacity but also redefines the meaning of airport travels – in line with the strategic intent to cement Changi Airport’s position as the region’s preferred airport hub upon its completion in 2019.

In line with ‘PROGRESS’ as our theme for this issue, we also feature various exhibitions, product launch and more happenings to keep you up-to-date with the industry’s latest offerings, so you can progress in your own venture.

Last but not least, we would like to congratulate all winners of PAM Awards 2018 and ILAM’s MLAA 2018, as well as the two Malaysian youth innovators who were the only Malaysian recipients of the prestigious Queen’s Young Leaders Awards.

Happy reading. The e-version of Building & Investment Magazine is available at www.b-i.biz.

JEWEL CHANGI AIRPORT: Singapore’s sparkling crown

Singapore’s Changi Airport is ranked by many organisations as the world’s number one airport. However, the Airport Management are not resting on their laurels. They have upped the ante by pushing further for a mixed development called Jewel at the airport, which is scheduled to open in 2019.

The Jewel’s facade is made up of more than 9,000 pieces of custom-made glass, close to 18,000 pieces of steel beams and over 6,000 steel nodes, with no single piece having the same dimension and specifications.

Construction work started in spring 2016.

Decoupling the forming and the reinforcing operations The core of the Exchange 106 is made of reinforced concrete and the floor slabs are of steel-composite design. The core wall reduces its size at Level 33 and Level 51. Working closely with the highrise specialists at headquarters in Amstetten, Doka Malaysia developed a practical formwork and safety concept adapted to the tight construction schedule and the customer’s high safety requirements. “Mulia’s Exchange 106 project is a fast-track super highrise building, and as such we felt it was important to have a reliable partner on board with both international and local expertise. Doka’s climbing formwork system for the core along with on-site instruction for formwork assembly and operator training allow us to confidently cycle floor to floor with the greatest efficiency and assurance of high quality”, emphasizes Corey Suckling, Project Engineer from Mulia Property Development. After Level 51 the tower raises with a 3-day cycle to the sky.

On this project the building core is exceptionally large and is being built with Automatic climbing formwork SKE plus. SKE100 plus and SKE50 plus climbing units are in use. The combination makes the implementation of the project solution efficient and fast as well. With a lifting capacity of 10 metric tons per climbing unit, the SKE100 plus system is eminently suitable for the structure of the building core and the high ratio of reinforcing material. The automatic climbing systems are combined with Large-area formwork Top 50 to give the concrete its shape. The Top 50 formwork is suspended on rollers, so forming times are fast and stripping paths large. Changing form-facings is a complex job, so for this build the formwork was faced with Xlife sheets and fitted with steel corners, permitting high numbers of re-use cycles.

The Automatic climbing formwork SKE100 plus has rising working platforms. In other words the formwork and the reinforcing operations are decoupled, so work proceeds on a number of different levels at once. All the forming work is done on the main working platform. Other working platforms are integrated above and below. They are for the jobs of installing the reinforcement, pouring the concrete, operating the climbing system, finishing the concrete and installing connectors for the steel composite floor slabs. All these jobs proceed in parallel, so progress on the build is faster and construction time is shorter. What is more, the SKE100 plus system has plenty of storage place for reinforcing materials, so the site crew has everything ready to hand.

Building core climbs in two sections Another particularity of this build is that the building core is divided into two sections with multiple shafts. So the entire climbing scaffold on the outside of a core section can climb quickly and safely in a single repositioning operation. No apertures occur during climbing, so no construction materials or gear can fall from the platforms. Alternate repositioning of the sections of the building core speeds up construction to a tremendous extent.

“We have to stick to a 4-day cycle, so everything has to be coordinated. All the influencing factors have to interact seamlessly: fast repositioning of the climbing system, ample storage space for the reinforcement and different jobs going ahead all at the same time. The crew splits into parallel teams for working the formwork, placing the reinforcement, pouring the concrete and doing the various finishing jobs. The timing is all-important”, stresses Thomas Hofer, Senior Engineer, Doka Malaysia.

While working out the details of the formwork solution, Doka was planning for optimum usage of the cranes on the inside and outside of the building core. The cranes integrate seamlessly into the formwork concept. The concrete placing boom system is also repositioned with the Automatic climbing formwork SKE100 plus. This SKE100 plus climbers, which supports the CFB, is located separately underneath the core formwork. This allow more flexibility. The corewall system can be repositioned to the next level independent and at the same time other locations can be casted by using the CPB.

S Forward-thinking formwork planning – right from the start the cranes were taken into account in the formwork concept. So now they integrate seamlessly. Doka also supplied all the illuminated logos.

Safety first The Exchange 106 will have a steel skeleton façade. The Doka Protection screen Xclimb 60 with trapezoidal metal sheeting provides all-round protection during construction. A special feature of the variable enclosure is that it has integrated Material Catch Fan what means the safety nets are mounted to the protection screen and also get repositioned together with the screen. All the work connected with the reinforcement, the installation of Bondek (loose formwork) and the pouring of the concrete carries on inside the protection screen.

The steelwork and the welding work proceed above the protection screen. The nets catch tools and small items if they are dropped. This solution was designed specifically for the high safety requirements on the Exchange 106 build. The material was installed in January 2017. This will be the first time they have been used on a building project anywhere in the world. //

S The building core is divided into two sections and is being built with Automatic climbing formwork SKE100 plus and SKE50 plus. The entire outside of a section can be repositioned in a single operation with hydraulic cylinders.

S Topping out at 492 metres, the Exchange 106 will be another architectural highlight in the skyline of Kuala Lumpur.
