yes i have read it yesterday that china was able to build a building in such a short time. and i watched that video. although i don't know if that includes the preparation. maybe the preparation is totally separate from the building time. but still that is such a feat. but it has less cement that is why. more like a materials that has been screwed together. maybe it is more like a toy called lego. anyways, it is good that we can build that fast. hopefully we can see than in our country also.

That is rather an insane feat any way you slice it. Given that in this country, sometimes it is lucky to rather get construction done in about fifteen months of anything, never mind fifteen days. Still that is just amazing. Of course it will be even more amazing if it is a building that is going to hold up in the long term but still that is very encouraging progress. What people can do is truthfully amazing to say the least. There are just a lot of ways where people can cut down the work and it is going to work out great. Hopefully it holds but if it does, then that is going to be a good thing. It is a level beyond what most could see. Fifteen days is amazing, given the fact that some building projects in other countries can extend to over a year.

I have read about it in yahoo news. You guys check it out for those who haven't read. And truly I was shocked. It seems impossible but possible for China. Congratulations to them. Someday Philippines will be able to build a building in 15 days also. Hopefully.

Don't believe them, if it's true i doubt they will use it for permanent or long term use. the problem with that is stability. maybe they can make one but only for good design and create a world record. but there's no way they can make a strong structure within 15 days. if i ever ask to stay there i would gladly decline

Wow that seems wonderful! I also think that they didn't count the preparation time there. Since it was like a lego where they will just screw the materials to erect the building. I do think the preparation time to design it and bring all the materials have taken some time.

Wow, good to hear countries doing so great. I just hope the building is safe enough. I love China, they are advancing so fast in all fields.

That's really a great feat, and I too would like to see that done here in our country, but I guess it might be a while for that to happen, not with unscrupulous government officials preying on private construction firms. But I hope they didn't sacrifice safety for a speedy construction.

Ha ha, how are you! This is true. I am in China's shenzhen, here it is a small fishing village, but after a 30 years of construction, here have become the high-profile international metropolis. Many of the buildings here are all in a short span of time of construction up. Shenzhen is beautiful. You are welcome to shenzhen play! Happy every day!
