NOVEMBER 2005

I heard there were about 700 piles that were to be dug inorder to tranfer the load of the superstructure above. You can see for yourself the larger number of piles over here.

Does anyone ever get the feeling that counstruction in Pakistan takes ages? Maybe our builders need new equipment and more workers?

Yes, I have been thinking the exact same thing for a couple of days. I believe it is because of using the slow 'traditional' methods instead of adapting and changing to a better and more efficient approach. I still see same thekaydaars and workers trying to delay the projects in order to get more dihaarees. Also manual labour is used instead of machinery as there is no lack of workers and they are cheap (relatively).
This approach sadly results in delayed projects, cost over runs and p*ssed off investors.

Salam,

Techno-Architect! Great stuff is comming from you. Keep it up. Those pictures are nice. Gives us a sense of some development taking place.

One little point though. I think there is some repetition of one or two pictures here. I think the First construction pic of Post #28 in "Telecom Tower, Tallest in Islamabad" is the same as the Second construction pic of Post # 3 in "Islamabad:Islamabad stock exchange tower". Or may be i'm too sleepy right now and they are two different pictures!!? (or may be they are the same projects!!?)

In general, i think, some very fine quality posts (pictures and comments) are comming from you. You are a good forumer.

Peace.

In the pics posted by Abid, 11 out of the 13 top floors have already being built. I can only count 3/4 floors making up the sqaure base. Which brings the total to 16/17 floors. Someone please help me out.

Might be having 17 floors and 3 - 4 basments

I think It is in fashion nowadays in Pakistan to count basements tooo
