Normally architect or structure engineer need to certify the work completed before they can collect money from bank. Bank will release base on the cert.

If not misttaken, klcc also done by big raft foundation. Anyway, just my guess only. I also hope they can progress and soon we can see the superstrucure is up.

I wish i can attend the meet up as im not at kl

How is the sales for eve suite?

Aiya... Dont need to worry so much la. Half year later u will see the structure is up.

Arhictect and structure engineer should verify before issue the certificate and allow contractor to claim.

Maybe for those didnt buy will regret when the structure is up and completed. Hahaha...

They only start their exvation last year december or november. Within 3to 6 months should be able to see the structure. May be this project is 48 months period from the spa. Someone can clarify on this.

Not sure how is icon city progress. They are doing earth work last december.

I saw one of the picture which the mobile crane is hanging the pile for the piling marchine. Anyway, hope this project will success. Important is good finishing and less defect. I just invest 430k compare to icon city 800k.hahaha...

I received one letter something like confirmation undertaking.

What i mean is actual im planning to buy icon city service apartment. But i went to see this eve suite and decide to invest on this. At least if something happen, wont lose so much. But i thing there is no problem to this project. Hopefully it can complete on 2014.

Any news? Look quite down.

No. Im not worry. Just want to keep this forum busy and updates and news as im not stay in kl.

Yes. This one you will not see the pile expose from ground. This pile is not required to joint, if you see the close photo for the piles which is different with rc square pile. It cannot be joint. So i believe few months later you will see the structure up. Actually they did all the sheet pile for temporary works.

Using rc piles doesnt mean is for small structure. It depend on the soil investigation report to see how good the condition of the soil. It can be a big raft foundation without piles.

If you look at the pile type they use, could you advise how the pile can be joint? It is not male and female end plate type.

Therefore, it is only one length of the pile can be drive in. Correct me if im wrong.

Added on March 26, 2012, 1:16 pmThanks for sharing the brochure, that mean the first length they are using cast iron pile head and the second length will connect using the male and female commection and weld?

Then it is funny why never see the piles exposed from ground.

So i just guess they just need one pile length to improve the soil.

Thanks for sharing ur experience

I usually see the rc piles will be expose. Anyway, guess should have their reason. Let me check with site RE and will explain further if get other info as most of the project we do are using bored piles.

Dont need to worry la. Before bank release payment, developer have to submit certification of completion issue by architect normally and certify by structure consultant. Then bank only will release. If they just do their work to show off, they have no benefit. Dont think they just show off. Im just interest to know the progress on site as im one of the buyer. By august or september you will definitely see the structure is up. If still not yet out only can say the project may have problem. It depend how fast the developer want to move.

The project im doing for a shoping complex almost same size with this, rc bored pile start at april last year and only completed all the piles by october or november. It is expected to open on mid 2013 for podium and tower end 2013. Project come with 6 level podium, 3 basement, 11 storey office.

Added on March 26, 2012, 3:01 pmNo la. Im with structure consultant. Not developer. I think you should be engineer also.

Added on March 26, 2012, 6:15 pmI have check with my friend, the jack in pile look small and it is use for smaller capacity pile. Example, let say the pile working load is 10 ton per point, the machine will jack in 10 ton cum the factor we use for static load and hold for certain time and if it not settle anymore mean it have set. Why cant see the pile exposed is most likely they are using dolly to press the pile in so that their pile machine can move easily without disturbing by the expose piles. Later they will need to expose and case as flat slab or pilecap with beam and slab depends on the design.
