NBC Nightly News featured this cool video today of a 15-story hotel “snapped together like Legos” and built in just 6 days in China’s Hunan Province thanks to the innovation of prefab construction. The Ark Hotel, built in Changsha, is another example of the successful use of prefab construction such as the building of the Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton, Ohio which we told you about previously.
Enjoy!
The building of the Ark Hotel was achieved with high quality and sustainability (the hotel is built to withstand a level 9 earthquake), maximum safety (not a single worker was injured) and high efficiency (industry experts said there was only 1 percent construction waste). It is an impressive example what can be achieved with this emerging building concept.
