Punggol Emerald ( newly launched in April 2010 )

The whole site of Punggol Emerald was cramped with heavy building construction equipments.

Drilling, carting away dug-up mud, inserting steel cyclinders, reinforcement cage, concreting and load testing of piles........all these work will be on going for the next two months before we can really see concrete foundations.

At the moment this is the main entrance to Punggol Emerald Site.

Trying to find a good focal point to shoot photos / pictures to reveal specific details as construction progresses. Finally found a few good locations.

Initial pictures showed only heavy building equipments working on site. Pictures were captured through the building site main entrance.

Three months later, some Blocks are already three floors above ground level.

This is the bird-eye view of Punggol Emerald.

Close-up pictures showing Blocks 265A and Block 265B. Constructional details, method varies from project to project.

Notice concreting of the floor slabs are carried out only after the prefab stores are in placed. In some other projects, the floor slabs are precast.
