en.Wedoany.com Reported - GS E&C announced on the 7th that it has signed a business agreement for "Innovative Technology Cooperation for Super High-Rise Construction" with Miura Sangyo, Miura Cement, and Saint-Gobain Korea Holdings (GCP Korea). The four parties will jointly develop low-viscosity, high-flowability concrete technology suitable for super high-rise buildings to enhance the efficiency and stability of mixed cement transportation and upper structure pouring.
According to the agreement, GS E&C is responsible for establishing technical performance evaluation standards and overseeing trial construction and comprehensive verification. Miura Sangyo and Miura Cement will develop cement that reduces viscosity while maintaining strength and performance, optimizing mix design and production processes. GCP Korea will leverage global application cases of concrete in super high-rise buildings to be responsible for the development and formulation optimization of admixtures.
This collaboration aims to solve the problems of difficult concrete transportation and slow pouring in super high-rise construction. Through low-viscosity, high-flowability formulations, pressure loss during high-pressure pumping can be reduced, ensuring stable quality for upper structure pouring. Once the technology matures, it is expected to shorten construction periods and improve construction quality.
GS E&C plans to prioritize the application of this technology in the already contracted Seoul Yongsan District Hangang Apartment Reconstruction Project and the Busan Citizens' Park Promotion Zone 1 Redevelopment Project. Both projects are super high-rise or multi-tower projects in high-density urban environments, demanding extremely high performance for concrete construction.
Miura Sangyo and Miura Cement possess experience in cement production and special concrete R&D in the Japanese and Korean markets, while Saint-Gobain Korea has global case studies and technical expertise in the field of concrete admixtures. As a major comprehensive builder in Korea, GS E&C has undertaken numerous super high-rise landmark projects. The complementary resources of the three parties cover the entire process from material development and formulation verification to construction application.
This collaboration will enable GS E&C to establish a differentiated advantage in high-performance concrete construction technology and set new technical standards for the Korean super high-rise construction market.
