    It's probably built like one of those fake iphones - all nice on the outside and noting but crap inside.

    Was it the big spider that knocked it over?

    That building is supposed to be able to withstand a level 9 earthquake.

    Ask the lads on that site would they be interested in building an Irish economy from scratch? If not I have an attic that needs to be converted

    Health and Safety? Doesn't exist in China.
    Here's a photo I took of a 100+ storey skyscraper under construction.

    Zoom in to the guy working on the edge.

    That video doesn't show the ground works.:mad:

    I remember working with a builder where we arrived at a site, dug the foundations and 8 weeks later someone was living in the house.

    ok so it may have been put up in 2 days but clearly was not built in 2 days as all the stuff was premade, probably over months and months

    If you gave the same machinery and those premade fabrications to Irish developers they would take months to do it and would over budget by €4 million.

    I fully agree! I've lived in China and saw for myself that Health and Safety is non existant in China. In general there is no value put on human life there.

    That's just the shell that went up from what I could see, it didn't look modular so the interior still has to be done.

    The workers probably built it under the threat of a public hanging if they missed the two day deadline. Motivating the staff, China style.

    I think it's part of the new Chinese space program.
    They're just going to keep building upwards.

    Planning permission would be denied on the grounds that it is high.
