中文A unique cityscape, rich history, and a multifaceted blend of industrial heritage, artistic endeavors, and everyday life—all of this is the allure of Shanghai's Yangpu Riverfront. This 15.5-kilometer stretch of the Huangpu River's shoreline was once the "eastern gateway" to Shanghai's century-old industrial development, carrying the glorious memory of the city's century-long industrial civilization.
Since its commencement, construction on Plot 01E4-03 of the Pingliang Community, a mixed-use commercial site within CITIC Pacific Real Estate's Yangpu Riverside project, has garnered widespread market attention. Meeting high expectations, this project aims to create a vibrant, integrated community that blends a century of industrial heritage, modern lifestyle aesthetics, and a vibrant riverside landscape.
The 33,188.9 square meter plot is planned for the construction of five 15- and 17-story high-rise residential buildings and a large-scale commercial office building. The construction area also includes two outstanding historically protected buildings and two cultural relics sites: the former site of the Huasheng Printing Company, the former Daye Printing Factory staff housing, the former building at No. 307 Pingliang Road, and the former site of the Si'en Civilian Compulsory School, the first workers' school in Hudong.
Based on a deep understanding of the geographical and cultural characteristics of the Yangpu Riverfront, the project adopts the core concept of "protective development." The design and planning incorporate the preservation, restoration, and revitalization of the area's historic buildings.
The static drilling root pile drilling rig, with its environmentally friendly, energy-saving, vibration-free, low-noise, and high-efficiency construction advantages, truly demonstrated its effectiveness in this environment. During construction, its all-electric drive, vibration-free, and low-noise construction methods effectively protected the area's historic buildings, earning it the nickname "Historic Building Protector" by on-site construction parties.
The proposed buildings (structures) will be constructed using the static drill root pile method. The total number of root piles used is 1,627, approximately 54,499 m, with a pile diameter of 600 mm, a pile depth of 27 to 53 m, a base diameter of 900 mm, and a base height of 2 m.
1. Compression resistance: PHC 500(100) AB C80 + PHDC 500-390(90) AB-400/500 C80;
2. Pull-out resistance: PRHC 500(125) Ⅳb C80 + PHDC 500-390(90) C -400/500C80;
3. Compression and pull-out resistance: PHC 600(130) AB C80 + PHDC 650-500(100) AB-500/600C80.
The construction site faced numerous environmental constraints, the most significant of which were: First, the construction site's proximity to a residential area required strict noise control during construction to prevent disturbance. Second, the two outstanding historical buildings and two cultural relics sites within the construction area required strict and focused protection. Construction equipment was prohibited from causing adverse effects such as foundation vibration and site deformation. This necessitated the use of non-soil-displacement piles, placing extremely stringent requirements on equipment performance.
The SEMW SDP220H static drilling pile drilling rig boasts high torque and drilling capacity through a pure electric drive, along with highly visualized process monitoring. While ensuring efficient construction, it is vibration-free and low-noise, while also being environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. Equipped with intelligent construction management software for real-time monitoring of the construction process, and utilizing advanced hydraulic base expansion technology, the project completed the installation of 10 piles, covering a distance of approximately 300 meters, in 12 hours, effectively protecting the area's century-old historical buildings.
The on-site construction manager emphasized, "During our collaboration with SEMW, we've clearly felt the absolute superiority of SEMW's static pile drilling equipment in terms of efficiency, drilling torque, quiet operation, and environmental friendliness, which gives us complete confidence."
With its superior product performance, ultra-high construction efficiency, and comprehensive service support, the SEMW SDP220H static pile drilling rig has become a veritable "guardian" of this historic preservation project.
In the future, with increasing environmental pressures, scarce land resources, the increasing emphasis on cultural values, and technological advancements, "re-creation" rather than "re-construction" of existing buildings will inevitably become the dominant model and inevitable choice for urban development. These historic buildings will be upgraded and renovated while preserving their original architectural features while incorporating modern aesthetics. The superiority of SEMW's static pile drilling equipment has been further verified and recognized in this preservation project for a century-old industrial heritage building, and will be more readily applied to more historic preservation projects across China.
