night by the 40m high steel roof lanterns at the roof
top, providing as the Landmark feature of the
development.

To ensure compatibility of the structures built in

phase one with the current seismic design codes,
and also enhancing the safety standards of the
structures, carbon fibre strengthening is used to
enhance the strength and the ductility of the
required structural members. The strengthening
works include full wrap for columns, strip wraps
and strip strengthening for beams and walls.

irregularity in both horizontal and vertical structural
arrangement.
In order to mitigate the adverse effect during
seismic events, structural dampers are introduced to
change and control the structural properties such
that the critical seismic movements can be
controlled.
The Phase two construction was carried out on top
of operating retails podium. Settlement joint using
the rocking slab approach were design to mitigate
the effect of the differential settlement. Careful
planning of the whole construction procedure
including material handling, formwork erection,
concreting, together with safety precautionary
measures were implemented and resulted with no
adverse effect to normal operation of the retails
podium during towers construction period.

Three Pacific Place is recognized as a successful
urban redevelopment project in Wanchai District,
which comprises of a 38-Storey Grade A+ office
tower on top of two levels of podium and three
levels of basement in Phase 1 with structural
provision for a future extension, a pedestrian
subway connecting to MTRC Admiralty Station
and a provision of pedestrian footbridge.
A highly eccentric reinforced concrete core wall
abutting the eastern faade provides the overall
lateral stability of the tower. State of the art
structural optimisation has been carried out to
reduce the concrete volume by 3,502m3 and
increase the total usable floor area by 606m2.
350mm thick post-tensioning flat slab with the
maximum span of 16m (simply supported) and
4.5m (cantilevered) is adopted as the office floor
system. The storey height and clear height of the
office floor are 3950mm and 2750mm respectively.
Structural provision for possible inter-storey
staircase openings on the office floor has been

allowed for on the post-tensioning slab to suit the
tenancy possible requirements.
Ten numbers of composite columns located around
the perimeter at 9m to 13.5m c/c and the core wall
provide the gravity load support system. Due to the
requirement of maintaining the distance of the
exterior column face to the faade constant, the
composite columns have been eccentrically
transferred seven times from 1800mm diameter on
G/F to 800mmx800mm on Level 37.
Steel trusses cantilevered from the core wall are
used to support the plant room level on the roof to
create double storey height on Level 38.
The tower is rested on a 3 to 3.5m thick reinforced
concrete raft on Grade III Rock.
Due to the phased
possession of the site
in five parcels and the
future extension
requirement, the
overall building
structures are to be
designed for three
different cases namely
the phase 1, the future
extension and the
construction stage.
The completion of the
foundation and core wall construction under Wing
Fung Street West prior to the superstructure
construction was rendered due to the sequential site
acquisition. Back calculation method to determine
the maximum height of the curtain wall could be
erected without extra strengthening works to the
permanent structures as well as retrofit construction
technique for foundation and core wall of the
concerned portion were adopted.
The first three-dimensional tensioned cable net
glass wall system in Hong Kong has been installed
on the podium to create a very transparent view.
The height of the cable nets are 21m and 10m at
Queens Road East and Star Street.
The development comprises of eight major
interrelated tender packages namely Demolition,
Excavation and Lateral Support, Advance
Foundation, Advance Steelwork, Main Contact,
External works and Pedestrian Subway. Very detail
collaboration of the tendering strategy as well as
structural design warranted the tower completion
on time and within budget.

The MTR Choi Hung Park and the Ride
Development is a multi-functional
residential/transport interchange building situated
above the existing MTR Choi Hung tunnel and
was completed in December 2005. The
development, site fronts Clear Water Bay Road,
were carried out before and during construction
where the appraisal results were analyzed in
detail and integrated into the structural design.
The approach of Observational Method was
adopted to eliminate the uncertainty on prediction
of the structural behaviours during construction
above the existing trusses on MTR tunnel.
Several design options with different scenario of
podium construction progress in different
portions were provided and arrangements were
made for design decisions during construction.
The development is within the protection areas
for railway, water main and drainage culvert at
where the construction is constrained. Clear
Water Bay Road is a busy traffic main linking
between the city centre and the outskirt.
Horizontal pipe piles and grouted pillar supports
were introduced for subway construction that
resolved the excavation problem at busy road.
And special ramp design together with the well
planned phase traffic diversions streamlined the
construction of the car access ramp to the
development PTI.
For a structure adjacent to a busy highway as well
sitting next to and on top of an operating MTR
tunnel, innovative and comprehensive engineering
designs are the major solutions to complete the
most challenging construction. Integration of multi-
discipline engineering professions lead the project
towards a successful outcome.
