Dusit Thani Sri Lanka - Phase 1 (14th November 2019)

“Sunday the 10th of November is a significant milestone for the project. The pouring of the 6th slab on tower A. This level is a transfer level, where the building changes from a column and beam structure below to a structural wall and flat slab above.

The concrete pour for the transfer floor, The Milestone, Sunday, 10th of November at 8.30 and using two concrete pumps, the team work continuously for 25 hours completing the pour on Monday morning.

This was the largest pour in the project to date with almost a 1000 cubic meters of concrete weighing over 2300 tonnes.

The work on Tower A will now progress to the typical floors and we have a target to complete 3 typical floors a month.

Over the next few weeks we will complete the 6th slab on Tower B. This pour will be of a similar size to the one we just completed on Tower A. We will then continue to construct the typical floors on Tower B.“

Dusit Thani Sri Lanka - Phase 1 (25th October 2019)

“The month of October signifies the end of the rainy season in this part of Sri Lanka. Despite the rain, the progress has been good on the completion of the 5th slab in both towers.

The false work and majority of the form work has been completed on the 6th slab to Tower A. This level is the transfer level with beams up to 2 meters deep and over 400 cubic meters of concrete in the 6th slab of Tower A alone. The transfer slab on both towers will be completed in November and we will move on to the construction of the typical floors.

The target is to complete 3 typical floors a month on each tower. We are looking forward to the drier months ahead. We will continue to increase the number of labour on site as we progress with the typical floors on both towers and commence the block work to the basement levels.“

Dusit Thani Sri Lanka - Phase 1 (01st October 2019)

“We are now coming to an end of the rainy season in this part of Sri Lanka. The superstructure works are progressing well and some of the architectural features of the building are now becoming clear.

The 05th slab on both towers have been poured. This forms the gymnasium level on Tower A and the first level of apartments on Tower B.

Work to the 06th level in Tower A are in progress. The formwork and reinforcement to the walls and the core walls can clearly be seen as can the falsework to the 06th level.

It is now possible to see the double-height columns that form a part of the entrance area to the building. This feature provides an unrestricted view from the entrance to the sea when you arrive at the building.“
