In November, Guangdong Overseas Construction Group (GOCG)
was awarded as the Main Building Contractor in a grand
ceremony that featured entertainments by well known
celebrities. This milestone further cemented Creek
Marina Marina’s reputation as being an exemplary
developer which is able to deliver all that has been
promised. The excellent collaboration between 2
world-renowned companies - Meinhardt Singapore and GOCG
- will ensure that Creek Marina project will be on, if
not ahead of schedule.
Basement piles for all the blocks have been fully
completed. Ultimate pile load tests for the building
have ended. PMC (UK) also performed various tests
starting from November 2006. These include Ultimate
Compression, Static Load Test, Pile Dynamic Analysis
(PDA) Test on Static Load Test Pile and PDA Test. This
test provides mobilized soil resistance to the skin of
the pile shaft and pile toes. It also helps to detect
piles head deflection or extent and location of any
piles damaged. The successful completion of the test
pile will pave way for drilling of the building piles.
These tests are expected to be completed by early
January 2007. Phase 1 of the project will be handed to
the main building contractor, Guangdong Overseas
Construction Group (GOCG) by end of 2006.
