Ye Mu called a white roofed sightseeing car, and the journey was not fast, enjoying the scenery along the way.
The two major construction teams in the Ark District, the No. 1 Ark Group in charge of SOM Architectural Design Firm, have begun ground construction, and the busy workers on this construction site are like a team of ants with a clear division of labor......
As the director of engineering, Sears and more than a dozen of his assistants are in the engineering command vehicle, controlling the progress of the project through the information fed back by Huaxi Intelligence and the information transmitted by various departments. The No. 1 construction site, counting the surrounding greening and post-production personnel, the total number reached 5,000. Among them, there are 2,000 people directly involved in the construction of the building, divided into more than a dozen teams to construct at the same time, and five teams are working in Ark No. 1 at the same time, requiring each team to install the honeycomb canopy frame, and the established position of each frame can not appear 0.5 mm deviation, otherwise there will be no way to connect when the project is summarized. Nine other trumpet-sized arks are also being built......
There is still a small problem in terms of installation accuracy, there is a three-dimensional laser measuring instrument, the measuring instrument directly scans out a three-dimensional model, where there is an error in the installation, Huaxi intelligent computer will remind where. The biggest difficulty lies in the project itself, Ark 1 has a hollow design, that is, there are no erect pillars to support it. The bearing force of the building is all due to the curved structure......
Overall, Ark One is progressing fairly quickly. Ark Two has just completed the underground construction and is still working on the above-ground construction part.
"You're building a gymnasium?" Zhang Yun saw the No. 1 Ark rising from the ground from a distance, was stunned for a moment, and asked.
"A large greenhouse complex, which is now being built as a supporting building for the main greenhouse. Ark No. 1 and Ark No. 2 are under construction, and these two arks belong to the second class ark, with a standard maximum diameter of 310 meters and a height of 37 meters, with a total of nine. The second-level ark is equipped with three levels of arks: third, fourth, and fifth, and the maximum diameter of the ark ranges from 30 meters to 70 meters. Finally, there is the main ark, the same flying saucer-shaped structure, with a diameter of 3,100 meters and a height of 370 meters. Ye Mu said, and drove the car closer to the No. 1 Ark construction site.
Zhang Yun was stunned when he heard it, with a diameter of 3,100 meters...... That is, the area of Quping is at least 7.5 million square meters, more than 11,000 acres, and a man-made dome?
It's really crazy......
Not to mention the cost of construction, even if it is completed, the annual maintenance cost will be an astronomical amount. Even if Ye Mu is the owner of NB100 and the majority shareholder of New Century Iron and Steel Group, it should be very difficult to build and maintain such a large greenhouse area.
The construction site looked chaotic, Zhang Yun frowned at first, and then saw Mingtang after a while. In fact, it is chaotic but well organized, there are almost no idle people in sight, and every job is clear, and there is a job in hand...... This is difficult to imagine in the construction of large projects.
"Hey, boss." Johnson saw Ye Mu, and he drove a Wrangler patrol car to stop in front of Ye Mu.
"Why did you come out on patrol too?" Ye Mu glanced at the work clothes he was wearing and asked.
"I just went to Huaxi New Town. The police station was established in the new town, and the community management committee invited us to take over the security of the new town. I was just about to ask for your opinion. Johnson is more interested in this proposal, but it needs Ye Mu's support.
The police system in the United States is very complex, with more than 80 types of federal police alone, and states have their own state police (except Hawaii), and each local administrative unit (including counties, cities, towns, and villages) also has a separate police system. For example, the state police are only responsible to the state government and are not under the leadership of the federal police, and the municipal police are only responsible to the city government, not the federal police or the state police, and only cooperate with each other in business.
The county sheriff is usually elected, and the small town of Park originally had its own small town sheriff, which was upgraded to the county, and the small town police department was automatically upgraded to the county police department. The number of people in the county police station is usually not very large, but depending on the economy of a place, the economic situation of the county is good, and the number of police officers can also be appropriately increased. Anyway, you can have money.
"We'll talk about this later." Ye Mu has not yet decided whether to make his private security team a county police agency accountable to the public.
After taking Zhang Yun to visit the construction site at close range, Ye Mu said: "With such a building complex, with drawings and a complete construction plan, how long will it take for your heavy infrastructure to complete a project?" ”
"Except for the preparation time, the formal construction should only take five to seven months." For such a large project, the preliminary preparation is even longer than the construction period. For example, Ark No. 1, which is in charge of SOM Architects, took a year and a half to start construction. The No. 2 Ark in charge of Baihua Architecture, on the basis of SOM Architectural Design Office, was still prepared for half a year before construction.
"It's been too long. This is north of Montana, at an altitude of more than 1,500 meters. Winter came very early, and there was no way to construct it in mid-November. If you're sure to build an ark before winter the group comes out......"
It's now mid-May, and there's only six months to mid-November. If you slow down, you'll have enough time to prepare.
"This ...... Time is running out. Preparation for a large project, such as steel, glass, cement and other materials......"
"Uncle, the main job of our logistics company is now to be responsible for the transportation of materials in the Ark District. As far as I know, the carbon steel honeycomb structure of the Ark is manufactured by a specialized steel mill. If it is needed here, it is not a problem for the steel mill to manufacture and transport it immediately. Our company is responsible for the transportation of other materials needed, and there is no problem in the procurement of materials. Chen Jia answered beside him. After all, I have followed two projects, and I am familiar with this business.
"If the material can keep up, the equipment problem will remain......" Zhang Yun glanced at the No. 1 Ark under construction at the same time, and the number of engineering vehicles used was huge: "I also need architectural drawings and model structures." I wonder if Ark 3 is completed by the end of the year, whether Heavy Infrastructure will be able to participate in the construction of the following works. ”
"Of course, as long as the building is qualified. Time is money, it's fast enough, and I don't mind contracting it to you in the main ark. Ye Mu shrugged and said.
"Can you tell us about the cost of Ark 1 and Ark 2? To come up with the fastest time, we can't calculate the cost one by one and give the project a competitive quotation. ”
"$850 million for Ark 1, $710 million for Ark 2......"
Zhang Yun nodded, two of the same buildings, the cost of No. 1 is more expensive than No. 2 It is easy to understand, and even the cost of No. 3 Ark will be cheaper: "I also need a copy of the information of the Ark, take it back and study it." Get back to you in ...... week at the latest"
Back at the hotel, Ye Mu turned on the computer and gave Zhang Yun a copy of the building materials of the ark. It's not a classified document, and it's even included in their Landmark Atlas by SOM Architects. It is known as the two major benchmarks of architecture in the new century. In the future, there will be many workers working in the Ark Construction, and there will be nothing to keep secret.
On the one hand, the meaning of New Century Architecture is to use century carbon steel buildings, and on the other hand, it is different from traditional buildings to erect a benchmark for new super buildings. The emergence of Century Carbon Steel marks that the construction industry has entered a new era, such as the current Burj Khalifa, in the era of Century Carbon Steel, there is no difficulty in construction technology.
There is also the 1,600-meter-high Kingdom Building being built by the tyrant kingdom Saudi Arabia, which is also made of century carbon steel, and pushes the original plan of 1,600 meters to 2,780 meters. It is another benchmark of new century architecture and the main symbol. The building is equivalent to an independent city, and even has its own high-tech ecosystem, where food and vegetables can be self-sufficient......
Compared with the Kingdom Building, Ye Mu's ark group is still a little insufficient. However, the ark area under construction is just a part of Ye Mu's ideals...... (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
