Report

Technical Visit to Sea Piling works of Tseung Kwan O – Lam Tin Tunnel Tsueng Kwan O Interchange and Associated Works

By Mr. John CHAN

 

On 15 June 2019 sunny morning, a group of civil engineering students from Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education (IVE) (Tuen Mun) visited the site of sea piling works for the Tseung Kwan O – Lam Tin Tunnel Tsueng Kwan O Interchange and Associated Works. Materials Division of HKIE had arranged this technical visit for them, and this visit was conducted by Mr. CHENG Tak Sum, Senior Construction Manager, and Ir MAN Ngo Yin Leo, Assistant Project Manager of Shanghai Tunnel (HK) Co., Ltd., one of the main contactors of this construction contract.

 

The technical visit was divided into two parts, the first part was project introduction and briefing of construction technologies and plants for sea piling works by Mr. T. S.CHENG. He shared his over 40 years experiences in civil engineering construction to the students, enriching their horizon from construction site safety to construction details, he went through every steps of the procedure of construction of sea piling works, including setting-out of location of piles, construction of temporary steel platforms for driving of steel casing and concreting technique for sea piles. Mr. CHENG’s fruitful sharing gave great benefits to the students.

 

The second part was site inspection from the observatory platform, Ir Leo MAN  guided the students to understand the details of sea piling works including the site arrangement of marine works, use of barges & tug boat and construction sequences of piling works at sea etc. This visit was an opportunity to let the students deeply understand the details and challenges in marine engineering works and widen their horizon in civil engineering construction.

 

Finally, we would give a sincere thanks to Ir LAM Chi Sing of the Materials Division, HKIE for his co-ordination and arrangement of this fruitful technical visit for IVE students.
