It is the last large hydropower project in China and the second-largest hydropower plant in the world, after the Three Gorges Dam. This project is part of the world's largest clean energy corridor that connects other mega hydropower projects like the Wudongde, Xiluodu, Xiangjiaba, and Three Gorges Dams. The Baihetan Dam is a 289-meter-tall double-curvature arch dam, with a crest elevation of 827 meters and a width of 72 meters at the base, and 13 meters at the crest. It impounds the Jinsha River and has a total capacity of 17,924,000,000 m3, that is around 14 500 000 acre-feet. The hydropower station is equipped with 16 hydro-generating units that each have a capacity of 1 million kilowatts, making it the largest single-unit capacity globally. The surveying of the dam site was done in 1992, and the original plan for the construction of Baihetan Hydropower Station was formally started in 2008. The dam was originally scheduled to be constructed between 2009 and 2018, but the actual construction started on August 3, 2017. The reservoir first started storing water on April 7, 2021. By April 24, the water storage elevation of the power station had risen over 720 meters. The hydropower station started partial electricity generation in July of the same year, and all hydro-generating units of the Baihetan hydropower station became fully operational on December 20, 2022. Experts have noted the four-year construction period as being exceptionally fast for a project of its type. The Baihetan Dam is not just about generating power; it also provides flood control, improved navigation, and sand blocking. It is estimated to generate 60.24 Terra Watt hours annually and will save about 90.45 million tons of coal per year and consequently reduce annual carbon emissions by 248.4 million tonnes. The dam and reservoir have particularly affected upstream Qiaojia County, providing thousands of jobs to local residents. The Baihetan Dam has faced criticisms, however. There are concerns about the environmental impact of the dam and the displacement of local communities. The construction of the dam has flooded a large area of land, and the displacement of people and animals has been a major concern. The government has promised to compensate those affected by the project, but critics argue that the compensation has not been adequate. Despite the criticisms, the Baihetan Dam is a remarkable achievement, a testament to China's determination to become a global leader in renewable energy. The dam and the other mega hydropower projects on the same river system are part of China's ambitious plan to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and promote sustainable development.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 The Mukaab is a towering cube that has been recently announced to be built in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and is hailed as a prominent symbol of the country's efforts to transition from an oil-based economy to a modern tourism destination. With its imposing size and cube-shaped structure, the Mukaab is expected to become the centerpiece of the New Murabba district, which is planned to be one of the largest modern downtowns in the world. However, the building has been mired in controversy since its inception, with many critics slamming its design as being too similar to the Kaaba, Islam's holiest site located in Mecca. Despite the ambitious vision behind the Mukaab, the building's striking resemblance to the Kaaba has raised eyebrows and sparked debate about the ethics of copying religious symbols for commercial purposes. The Mukaab is so large that it could fit 20 Empire State Buildings inside it, and at 400 meters tall, it would technically count as a supertall skyscraper. It is inspired by traditional Najdi architecture and will feature a beautiful surface that shines in the sun, dominating the skyline of Riyadh. Inside the Mukaab, there will be a colossal dome that displays different virtual realities, making visitors feel like they are in a different world. It will have a spiral tower at the center that will be a premium destination for tourists, featuring restaurants, hotel rooms, observation platforms, cinemas, and theaters. The holographic dome is meant to be an immersive experience, unlike anything seen before. The Mukaab is part of a larger project called New Murabba, which aims to turn Riyadh into the world's largest modern downtown. The district will include more than 80 entertainment venues, several walking trails, a large museum, and other attractions. The Mukaab will be the centerpiece of the project, and its holographic dome will transport visitors to other planets and magical worlds. So, is the Mukaab just a viral marketing stunt, or will it actually be built? According to reports, construction on the Mukaab is set to begin in the second quarter of 2023, and it is expected to be completed by 2030. This is in line with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 plan to diversify its economy and become less dependent on oil. In conclusion, the Mukaab is a massive cube-shaped building that will dominate Riyadh's skyline. It will be 400 meters tall and 400 meters wide, making it one of the largest structures on earth. Its holographic dome will transport visitors to other planets and magical worlds, and its spiral tower will be a premium destination for tourists. While some may see it as a viral marketing stunt, it seems that the Mukaab is indeed set to be built, as part of Saudi Arabia's larger effort to shift its economy away from oil and towards tourism. So far, there hasn't been an official announcement regarding the timeline for the completion of the Mukaab or when it will open to the public. However, given the scale of the project and the progress made on NEOM, it's possible that construction could begin soon. It's worth noting that some of the other NEOM projects, like the Line and the Oxagon, are also still in the planning stages, so it could be several years before the Mukaab is complete and ready for visitors. Whether or not the Mukaab will actually be built remains to be seen, as there are always risks and uncertainties associated with large-scale construction projects. However, given Saudi Arabia's commitment to diversifying its economy and investing in tourism, it's likely that the Mukaab will at least be considered seriously as a potential addition to the country's growing list of megaprojects. ------------------------------------------- Credit: Public Investment Fund: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj2jErpwQQk&ab_channel=PublicInvestmentFund Public Investment Fund: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRh_oy6yItI&ab_channel=PublicInvestmentFund Public Investment Fund: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzHuWw7mu0c&t=23s&ab_channel=PublicInvestmentFund NEOM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kz5vEqdaSc&t=2s&ab_channel=NEOM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

And then there's the wind damage, with high winds tearing roofs off homes and knocking down power lines. This can lead to widespread power outages, and make it difficult for first responders to access affected areas. The damage caused by hurricanes can be catastrophic, with entire neighborhoods left in ruins. And with the frequency of hurricanes on the rise, it's clear that something needs to be done to protect the Texas coast. That's where the Texas Seawall comes in. This massive construction project is inspired by the successful construction of a similar seawall in the Netherlands. The Dutch have long been leaders in coastal protection, and their seawall has proven effective at protecting their coast from powerful storms. After examining the problem of hurricanes causing widespread damage to the Texas coast, and exploring the proposed solution of the Texas Seawall, it's clear that this construction project has the potential to be a game-changer in protecting our communities from future storms. The Seawall, which is estimated to cost $31 billion. It would be made of concrete and steel, and would be several feet high, able to withstand the powerful forces of a hurricane. This project is inspired by the successful construction of a similar seawall in the Netherlands, which has proven effective at protecting their coast from storms. The Texas Seawall would offer similar protection to the Texas coast, helping to prevent flooding and wind damage caused by hurricanes. While the Seawall is a major undertaking and will take several years to complete, it has the potential to save lives and protect our communities from future disasters. It's a bold solution to a pressing problem, and one that could change the future of the Texas coast. However, before construction can begin, funding needs to be secured. It's up to our state and local leaders to make the decision on whether to move forward with this project. But with the devastating effects of hurricanes on the rise, it's clear that something needs to be done to protect the Texas coast. The Texas Seawall could be the answer we've been looking for. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 The Norwegian coastal highway, also known as the E39, is a major transportation project that aims to improve connectivity along the country's rugged coastline. One of the most innovative features of the highway is the use of floating tunnels, which will allow for the construction of roads in areas where traditional tunnels and bridges may not be feasible. The construction of the E39 is being carried out by a consortium of Norwegian engineering firms, with support from the Norwegian government. The project is expected to cost around $47 billion, making it one of the largest infrastructure projects in the country's history. The E39 project involves the construction of a new highway that will be approximately 11,000 kilometers in length. Currently, the journey along the route takes approximately 21 hours and includes seven ferry connections. The goal of the project is to create a new, improved road that will eliminate the need for ferries and reduce travel time to approximately 11 hours. The new route will be approximately 50 kilometers shorter than the current one. The E39 highway project has been in the works for several years, and construction is currently underway in several parts of the country. This to connect the cities of Kristiansand in the south to Trondheim in the north. One of the major challenges of the E39 project is the fact that much of the proposed route runs along Norway's rocky and heavily indented coastline. This rugged terrain makes it difficult to build traditional tunnels and bridges, which is where the idea of floating tunnels comes into play. Floating tunnels are a relatively new concept in the world of transportation infrastructure. They are essentially large concrete tubes that are anchored to the seabed and float on the surface of the water. This allows them to move up and down with the tide, while still providing a stable and secure passage for vehicles. The floating tunnels that will be used for the E39 project are being constructed at a specialized facility in the city of Bergen. The tubes are made of reinforced concrete and are designed to be both strong and flexible, allowing them to withstand the forces of the ocean and the weight of passing vehicles. The floating tunnels will be a key component of the E39. Each tunnel will consist of a series of concrete pontoons that are connected together to form a continuous floating structure. The pontoons will be anchored to the seabed using a combination of cables and concrete anchors, and will be designed to rise and fall with the tide. Once completed, the floating tunnels will be towed to their final destination and anchored to the seabed. The tunnels will be equipped with lighting, ventilation, and other necessary systems, making them fully functional roadways. The use of floating tunnels for the E39 project has several benefits. In addition to allowing for the construction of roads in areas where traditional tunnels and bridges may not be feasible, floating tunnels are also more environmentally friendly than other options. They have a smaller footprint and cause less disruption to marine life, making them a more sustainable choice. In conclusion, the E39 highway project is a major transportation initiative in Norway that aims to improve connectivity along the country's rugged coastline. One of the most innovative features of the project is the use of floating tunnels, which will allow for the construction of roads in areas where traditional tunnels and bridges may not be feasible. The floating tunnels are being constructed at a specialized facility in Bergen and will be towed to their final destination once completed. The use of floating tunnels for the E39 project has several benefits, including the ability to construct roads in difficult terrain and a smaller environmental footprint. The expected completion date is 2026 and expected cost at $47 billion. ------------------------------------------- Credit: Statens vegvesen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUwjiS_qzTA&ab_channel=Statensvegvesen Statens vegvesen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94ZpOWroNv0&list=PLS4EOEsXAbglDapZxujsRwIx4LiKvatqp&index=3&ab_channel=Statensvegvesen Statens vegvesen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trwd3AhJJB0&ab_channel=Statensvegvesen Statens vegvesen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fca9-7SnYX8&ab_channel=Statensvegvesen ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 This is one of Europe’s largest construction sites. The Fehmarnbelt tunnel between Denmark and Germany, near the town of Rødbyhavn on the island of Lolland, will be the largest underwater construction in Europe. This means that the new link will be the world’s longest immersed tunnel and the fastest route between Scandinavia and Central Europe. The first step in the construction phase is the large-scale work harbour. It has been specially built to take delivery of the huge quantities of sand, cement, steel and gravel that are required to cast this enormous tunnel. Behind the harbor they are building a tunnel factory with 6 production halls that will continuously cast the tunnel's 89 concrete sections. The sections that make up the tunnel will be 217 m long and weigh over 73,000 tonnes. Two double-lane motorway tubes, two railway tubes and a service passage will be included in its construction. The tunnel sections will be immersed in a 12 meter deep trench on the seabed that is dredged from sea level. In order to clear the seabed for the tunnel it will take 19 million cubic meters of soil, sand and stone which then can be transformed into new beaches and land around the tunnel. The tunnel factory will be the world’s largest for concrete production. It is expected to provide jobs for thousands of people during construction and manufacturing. The project will also create a number of new jobs in the region, with companies providing raw materials to the site. The finished tunnel will be assembled from 89 pieces that are cast over a skeleton made out of steel in large moulds. Once the concrete is set, the moulds will then be removed and the tunnel elements will be pushed forwards towards their respective location. The construction of tunnel sections will be an around-the-clock operation that takes nine weeks to manufacture one section of the tunnel. It's sealed at both ends with bulkheads and the dry dock is flooded when the cement section is ready for transport. The section is towed out into the deep end of the dock, after which the water level is lowered to sea level. Tugboats will tow the section in position in the Fehmarnbelt, and ballast tanks are filled with water. The section is then lowered on to the sea floor. For the tunnel to be watertight, it must have all sections installed with millimetre precision. Once they are in place, the water is pumped out. This creates a partial vacuum and ensures a watertight connection. Finally, once they’ve closed the tunnel off with stone, the stone will act as a protective layer, you're going to see a quick transformation after that as the current will cover the tunnel with sand. Tunnel buildings are being constructed on Rødbyhavn, Lolland and Puttgarden in Germany to make travel smoother. Once the installation of the tunnel is complete, there will be a smooth transition between land and tunnel. People will then be able to cross the Fehmarnbelt in seven minutes by train and 10 minutes by car - the world's largest immersed tunnel is estimated to be ready in 2029. Cost of this project is estimated between 7.3 billion euro and 10 billion euro. ------------------------------------------- Credit: FemernAS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Uop3nun7mM&ab_channel=FemernAS FemernAS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdzqDM2xqAE&ab_channel=FemernAS FemernAS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zf7C5DiEVpA&ab_channel=FemernAS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 Along the Red Sea on the shores of the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah On the north side of this busy city, you'll find holiday resorts, sparsely built homes and large patches of sand. You'll also find a construction project unlike any other, one that has been put on hold since 2018. This planned tallest structure on Earth was abandoned in the hot Arabian Desert since then. Once promising and ambitious, this project spiraled into a spectacular failure. Unsurprisingly, the future of this once record-breaking tower remains to be seen. Mega projects like Dubai's Islands, which are meant purely to show off a nation's engineering prowess on the world stage, often have unforeseen obstacles along the way. Many nations around the world are looking for opportunities to diversify their economies away from oil extraction. The Saudi Arabia just like the United Arab Emirates are no different in this regard. Alongside the saudi government's attempt to attract international companies, tourism was another huge focus in attracting investment. Dubai has been making waves since the Burj Khalifa was built and for many, it's put Dubai on the map. This made Saudi Arabia desire to have one of these mega structures of there own. The Burj Khalifa had been well underway in Dubai. So the Saudi-backed kingdom's company started developing their own idea of what it would be like to build a skyscraper tower of there own on land they selected in the city of Jeddah. The plot is over 5 square kilometers or 1300 acres all to build what they called the jeddah tower. The Jeddah Economic City master-plan would cover everything from a luxury shopping district with its own thematic town, to commercial areas where companies could conduct their business. There would also be green space and water features to provide the best opportunities for people to live, work and play in a prosperous community. The main attraction out of this plan would be Kingdom Tower. The Kingdom Tower is the tallest building in the world and would be a symbol of our country's pride. Rather than disclosing specifics, company officials have said that it's estimated to go up 168 floors and reach 3,300 feet or 1053 meters in height. Let’s compare, the Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall or 93 meters, while the Freedom Tower in New york city stands 1776 feet tall or 541 meters. The current world record holding structure, the Burj Khalifa, reaches 2 716.5 feet or 828 meters into the sky. Kingdom Tower, with its sleek design and four Seasons hotel, would not only shatter the world record but also leave ample room for a commercial office space. on the 157th floor, the developers originally proposed to include a helicopter pad in the tower. The only break in the tower's design is its sleek and tapering structure. This was later scrapped due to safety concerns at that height, but the cantilevered Edge remained on the drawing board. Now called The Sky Terrace, it would have been the tallest observation deck in the world. Kingdom Holdings hired famed architect Adrian Smith, who designed the Burj Khalifa, for the Kingdom tower project as far back as 2008. The developers assessed the soil conditions and expected the cost to be over 20 billion dollars when it's all said and done, adjusted for inflation, you'll end up with an additional $7 billion of cost. Keep in mind that the project was supposed to come in phases and the first was set to open in 2016. This was also being planned during the economic crisis which right from the start was slowing everything down. For many years, Kingdom Holdings fought and eventually achieved success in overcoming the economic recession. They were able to find strong partners who can help them with the mega project. the kingdom company anticipated breaking ground in 2011, it wouldn't actually be until April 2013 when the foundation work actually began on the Kingdom tower. A new completion date was set for 2018 after the building began to spring up from the ground in September 2014. by 2015, progress continued to be made floor by floor with the tower taking shape gradually. By this time, the Kingdom Tower had its name changed to Jeddah Tower to honor the city it was being built in. by November of 2015, the financing had been secured to finish the tower and everything was moving forward as planned. that was until 2017, when the problems began. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 New York is one of the biggest global cities in the world. Amongst its rich mix of neighborhoods, it has established a unique identity that is admired the world over. Billionaires Row, with its breath-taking views, luxurious interiors and endless amenities, not to mention the eye-watering price tags, is only for those with a 10-figure bank balance. But how did this area come to be? What made this particular district grow? This is the story behind New York’s "Billionaire's Row". It's popularity and geographic restrictions have made it one of the planet's most densely populated areas. Developers have been competing for space here for decades, balancing their needs to make a profit while also respecting the areas history. Planning controls have helped to create more identities in different areas. But it also creates issues in regards to redevelopment, especially in residential areas. With Manhattan's popularity constantly increasing and a high demand for luxury residences, developers are turning to more commercial areas in search of quality sites with enough space. Situated to the immediate south-west of Central Park, the Midtown streets between Park Ave and Columbus Circle have long had an air of prestige. Home to iconic landmarks such as the Plaza Hotel, Russian Tea Room and Carnegie Hall. The district naturally appeals to high-end residential developers. The area has been dubbed "Billionaire's Row" as a result of high end property developments. Successfully completing One57 in 2014 was followed by the development of 432 Park Avenue in 2016 and 53 West 53rd Street, 111 West 57th Street and Central Park Tower afterwards. These properties offer extreme luxury against the backdrop of Central Park's best views and in some of the city's most desirable neighborhoods. They are close to all sorts of specialty shops and local amenities. You can also avoid making Manhattan's co-op agreements. When you make a co-op agreement, you're basically buying shares in a property in exchange for the exclusive use of one of its units. these arrangements require people to share financial information, and those who are very rich often feel uncomfortable about doing that. New development in this area is not easy. The city suffers from extreme over-development and many of the projects that developers started have been forced to innovate to find small plots of land. Developers need to find ways to maximize the amount of floor space in order to make a profit. They often do this by designing buildings that sit up against the property’s height limit. Developers can overcome the limits of their space by purchasing air rights from neighbouring properties and stacking these rights onto their site. This approach is great for city planners. They are able to plan with the future in mind and be sure that developers stay within their property lines, which ensures that everyone has good views and light. Building super-slender towers structures that are defined as having a width-to-height ratio greater than 1:7. By using concrete instead of steel, engineers have been able to increase design flexibility and the overall strength of their structures. In the case of 53W53 and the impressive 432 Park Avenue, they've done an amazing job of integrating the perimeter concrete structure into the overall aesthetic of the external facade. With its high strength, the use of reinforced concrete enabled these super-slender towers to be built up to extreme height, but they were subject to further engineering in order to ensure their stability. The 432 Park Ave. – with a height-to-length ratio of 1-to-15 – includes double floor cutouts at 12 floor intervals, which makes it possible for powerful winds to pass through and around its form. ------------------------------------------- Credit: Enes Yilmazer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG5E5rgHpN4&ab_channel=EnesYilmazer Enes Yilmazer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aENLA_LVcRY&ab_channel=EnesYilmazer Erik Conover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnII3WPAQBE&ab_channel=ErikConover Erik Conover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBIFgBFAwjA&ab_channel=ErikConover ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 The controversial line is a linear city and part of Saudi Arabia's biggest project neom City. A recent video that surfaced on social media shows numerous excavators digging a wide linear trench in the vast desert in the northwest of the Arab Nation. It’s anticipated that the city's 100 miles of trenches will be fully dug before construction can begin. When this project was first announced back in 2017, the reactions to it were mixed. Some people were excited by the proposed flourishes like flying taxis and robot maids while other professionals questioned whether it will actually be feasible. people were convinced this was just a utopian fantasy, with some saying the project would never get off the ground. Fast forward to today and the project is now underway. Drone footage of the site shot at the initial stages of construction shows hundreds of trucks and machinery working in the desert, preparing for construction. excavation work along the length of the project is underway, according to previously released renderings the line will be 170 kilometers long, 500 meters high and 200 meters wide. The width of the trench being worked on in the video doesn't seem to match the proposed measurements. the images released just a few months ago show the large Park areas, rivers and waterfalls inside this massive structure, along with sports complexes and commercial and residential spaces. 200 meters is roughly the size of two American football pitches and the trench seen in the Drone footage is much smaller than that. The actual size of the line would ideally be three times this small trench. therefore it's possible that this excavation was just preparatory work for the underground high-speed transport system planned to be built underneath the length of the city. It’s been called the most dramatic project in architecture and construction at the moment. It’s designed to house 9 million people and it will rise higher than the Empire State Building, with a gigantic façade of elegant mirror-glass. The city of the future will be powered entirely by renewable energy. It won't have any traditional transportation like cars or roads; instead, people will move around using high-speed elevated networks, combining artificial intelligence with a fully sustainable technology infrastructure. Right now the project only exists on a website and in the announcement made by Saudi Press Agency. many design experts think the technology to make such a city doesn't exist yet. according to proposals the line is designed as a series of unique communities and they will be organized in three dimensions of movement- up, down, or across. This idea is known as zero gravity urbanism. The three layers include a pedestrian level surface layer, best for parks and open spaces, a lower surface layer, and an underground transportation spine that would consist of ultra high speed transit. The proposal suggests that all daily commute on the Transit would be walkable within 5 minutes of each transit node and will take no more than 20 minutes. Experts have said these goals are unfeasible. to support this level of public transport the line would require larger nodes - and if there aren't enough people at every stop it would be impossible to sustain this infrastructure economically. It is unclear whether such technology for the Line transit system exists yet. Traveling 100 miles in 20 minutes would require a speed of 318 miles per hour, which appears to outperform existing high-speed rail by quite a bit. Eurostar trains in Europe can travel at around 199 miles per hour, according to reports. China's High-Speed Rail trains have also been clocked at 236 miles per hour - now theoretically, the hyperloop technology being developed by Elon Musk could manage the journey if it was completed. ------------------------------------------- Credit: Billion Dollar Builds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBnVJjbP-ms&ab_channel=BillionDollarBuilds NEOM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4ox214YLvw&ab_channel=NEOM Dezeen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfiWYKTgRxI&ab_channel=Dezeen NEOM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4ox214YLvw&ab_channel=NEOM NEOM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kz5vEqdaSc&ab_channel=NEOM aramco: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhthHC0s38A&ab_channel=aramco ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 Dubai wants to become one of the world's most livable cities by 2040. The only problem right now is that it's a bit of a mess. Highways cut through neighborhoods there's not much public transportation. mega projects are disconnected from critical infrastructure while man-made islands are sinking Many of the cities harshest critics say that it is just a series of pretty postcard attractions connected by highways. To sort out this issue, there is a new plan to properly urbanize this desert city by 2040. The only problem is whether it's possible to fix Dubai. The question everyone is asking right now is "What will Dubai look like in 2040?" It's getting to be pretty familiar sight in Dubai with leaders gathering for announcements of another amazing project. The Burj Khalifa getting lit up with dazzling LEDs and fireworks. The media is being flooded with glossy renderings and positive affirmations about the people-centric urban plans. This project is very different from the ones before. It might not be the tallest building or equate to something world-changing. But, a new idea could fundamentally change Dubai for the better. The 2040 master plan will see three existing areas redeveloped into new city centers two completely new city-centres and brand-new finance and technology districts to boost innovation and invention. Eight million square meters of green corridors and pedestrian/cyclist pathways will be planned costing estimated $680 million. The goal is to make a neighborhood into an attractive place with its own mini-city feel. As they're centrally located, it will be easy to access them and have lots of options nearby. Within close proximity, residents will have their own commercial center and recreational space. It will all come together with a new public transport network. It's going to be within 800 metres of half the population. The people will never be more than about half a mile away from the nearest public transit hub, which would effectively make the entire city walkable. to improve critical education and healthcare facilities, the infrastructure will expand by 25%. 60% of The Emirates will be providing a safeguard for nature reserves and wildlife sanctuaries. this is a seriously impressive contribution to improving the quality of life for human beings. when you think about it, it makes sense that all functioning international cities would have public transport, green spaces and financial hubs. Yes, Dubai is different. It was never really built for those things. Dubai is well-positioned in the world and it's natural that it would make a great aviation center. With European, Asian and African airlines all nearby, Dubai International quickly became one of the busiest international airport in the world. The government has had to find a new source of income without high taxes and diminishing oil supplies. They quickly discovered, however, that tourism can be an attractive prospect. The country can draw in tourist with their incredible mega projects. And this is where Dubai's build it and they will come idea originated from. There are a lot of reasons in favour of the 2040 plan and one can see why it is so crucial. Furthermore, Dubai's population is set to exceed that of Singapore by 2040, which only reinforces the plan's importance. Nevertheless, one can't help but worry if it will indeed be enough to reach the city’s goal. for the 2040 plan to work, the city will need to acknowledge and accept that dedicated green space actually helps make a much better quality of life for the citizens. The benefits of the green spaces are instrumental in making the plan work. As long as there is an almost complete change in thinking, then this can be achieved. With the success of Dubai's current strategy, it is incredibly tough for them to shift. ------------------------------------------- Credit: Dubai 2040: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIITcD5xQEU&ab_channel=Dubai2040 World Walker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbIDerj-3Gs&ab_channel=WorldWalker DIFC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iv0qqkkw7mI&ab_channel=DIFC World Government Summit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UanChmpAgw&ab_channel=WorldGovernmentSummit CNBC International TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYf1J_L5-PY&ab_channel=CNBCInternationalTV Dubai Film:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8n2o3Qx504&ab_channel=DubaiFilm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 The Harmon Hotel Las Vegas' CityCenter is an urban complex in the middle of the Strip. The advertising has always been appealing to high-end customers, which include residential condos, a retail mall, and all of the conveniences required for an advanced standard of living. The Harmon Hotel will be 137 meters tall. It includes a roof pool which offers an unmatched view of the Strip. The construction started with these plans in 2007 and is estimated to cost $275 million dollars, but it's only half built when it halted construction. In 2008, they found that steel reinforcements meant to stabilize the building were installed incorrectly, so construction was halted on the 28th floor. This is why it's important to have inspections before signing off on projects. Condominiums were removed from the plans, which meant that refunds had to be given to those who have already made purchases. MGM, the owners of The Harmon, wrapped the building in reflective glass and sold it as advertisement space. In 2011, reports surfaced that the Harmon would not survive an earthquake, and would collapse due to structural problems if there ever was one. In response to the incident, MGM announced they would be demolishing the building. They did so because of its proximity to other buildings and in a bid to minimize collateral damage. The only downside is that it took a lot more time since they had to dismantle the tower floor by floor rather than just following the usual process of implosion. The process of dismantling The Harmon resort started in June of 2014 and was completed in the latter part of 2015. The tally for this project is reportedly $170 million, with an additional $450 million spent on the construction. Due to extreme structural issues, it was never opened to the public and took almost a year to be dismantled. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge More than 27 million cars travel from Yerba Buena Island to Oakland every year. These vehicles are travelling over 3.5km of water because the San Francisco Bay Bridge is 10 lanes wide, which means it can't be neglected. But not all is good news - in 1989 an earthquake caused a lot of problems. The 6.9 quake that hit San Francisco in 1989 severely damaged the Bay Bridge at the time, so officials had to address structural concerns and make it safe again. Officials considered repairing the bridge but decided that it would be expensive and opted to hold a design contest instead. The new design took ten years to agree on. They planned to replace the eastern span with a self-anchored suspension bridge, which a panel agreed looked better. The complexity of this type of bridge proved to be a money sink. The stability rods often broke, meaning they had to spend more on either repairing or refabricating them. They decided to go with guard rails instead of barriers but these would corrode over time. There were a few problems with the construction - the deck was slightly misaligned, which meant it had a higher chance of collapsing during an earthquake. The welding quality also needed work, so we conducted an investigation and undertook some expensive repairs The Bay Bridge’s eastern span took 11 years to build and it is the most expensive infrastructure project in California so far, but the new high speed train might be more costly. Total costs of the bridge are unknown but estimates for 2019 are at around 7 billion dollars. This is an increase of over 7 times the original bid of just under 1 billion dollars. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

Work began on expanding the rail system so that more train cars could travel safely along it. The Hallandsås railway upgrade is one of the most important parts of this project. It, along with the new Halmstad- linking road are supposed to make life easier for commuters travelling between Gothenburg & Copenhagen. the coming of trains that could cross the strait with both directions helped initiate the construction of Hallandsås Tunnel in 1992 with plans to open 3 years later. However, problems started almost immediately. Groundwater started seeping from the rock as soon as construction began, and in greater volumes than expected. The rock was too soft to allow for drilling equipment or even the first drill they tried to use. However, the original drillers led to more water leaks. These issues bankrupted the company and caused them to hand the project off. It has been reported that poisonous sealing compound was used during construction without any safety precautions taken. This led to livestock and fish in the area dying, as well as workers on the project getting sick. The company faced criminal charges for these issues and construction was halted again in 1997. Up to that point, only about 3km of the 8km tunnel had been drilled. Eight years later, construction began once more. The construction of Hallandsås Tunnel was completed in 2015 - 23 years after the project was initiated. New drilling practices and machines meant this part of the work went faster than before, but bedrock quality slowed things down in certain areas. The Swedish government predicted that the project would cost about $1 billion, yet by the time it was finished, the total cost was far from what was originally projected - it ended up being closer to $10.5 billion. Which is ten times the budget. ------------------------------------------- Credit: TimelyTrains: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIhay4jk3F0&ab_channel=TimelyTrains ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 Olkiluoto 3 Nuclear Power Plant Nuclear power has been widely used in around 30 countries and about 30% of Finland’s electricity comes from nuclear sources. In 2005, the Finnish government decreed that they should be using more nuclear power. If they wanted to reduce coal use, they needed to build more nuclear reactors. Plans included adding a new, very efficient third unit to the Olkiluoto Nuclear Plant in Eurajoki that would increase Finland's nuclear power production by nearly 60%. The first two blocks of this reactor were built in the 1980s and functioned as planned, while construction on the third block began in 2005. This is an example of a trend we can see happening all over: western countries building nuclear reactors again after a 15-year hiatus. From the start, the project was faced with sheer delays in construction. "TVO" which owns Olkiluoto power plant promised that the new reactor would open in 2010, but it is still under construction today. Early on, the project ran into a lot of logistic issues. There were disagreements over how to get the nuclear components to the site, there were also supply chain issues and delays that have held up progress for over 12 years and around $8 billion. The buildings have been done for quite a while but there is still some work left to be completed on the nuclear components. There are few experts left in the nuclear infrastructure sector, which effectively put the brakes on reactor construction. In an industry with no professional guidance or new innovations to push innovation, business has been stalling for some time. In addition to this, contractors weren't prepared for the strict standards required in order to build a safe nuclear reactor. This is because the concrete foundation was found to be irregular shortly before it was finished, meaning that it had to be redone. It has been discovered that contractors were forging metal parts of the reactors in a less than ideal way, and welders on the project weren't given instructions about proper welding before construction commenced. Planning for this project has been a challenge due to the amount of administrative concerns with nuclear plants. It has taken years to sort out all of the documentation and licensing, but TVO has finally promised that Olkiluoto 3 will soon be open for regular power generation. Initially, the project cost was around $3 billion dollars and has been increasing yearly. Due to the delays & difficulties, the total project is now estimated to cost $11 billion dollars, nearly 4 times the original price. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.

👉👉 https://bit.ly/31R197c 👈👈 Dubai Islands The world's largest artificial islands is in Dubai. This cluster of islands should attract tourists from all over the world. Dubai has always had big designs for its coastlines, which is why the first of these island projects the Palm Jumeirah started it’s construction in 2001. Motivated by the rapid progress, new ambitious plans were created. It wasn't long before construction of the Palm Jebel Ali and The World started in Dubai. Even though these islands are still unfinished and almost empty today, they represent Dubai's rapid growth after the discovery of oil in 1966. One such example is the construction of the Palm Deira, an island 10x the size of the Palm Jumeirah. It too, however, failed and was later scaled down. This was especially true after 2008 when financing these lofty projects became hard to come by after the finacial crisis. But while many of Dubai's island projects are still struggling to get funding, the only fully completed project, the Palm Jumeirah, could face some major problems in the near future. Various sources claim that the Palm Jumeirah is sinking at a rate of 0.5 centimetres per year. Developers claimed the islands weren't eroded, but two years later a business called Penguin Marine provided evidence that proved otherwise. Scientists say that even if this is not true, the biggest problem will be the rising sea levels. The IPCC predicts that the sea level will rise by 25-200cm by the end of this century, depending on if the climate stays stable or not. This could lead to flooding in low lying areas. Even if the rise in sea levels isn't likely to completely flood the country for years to come, more costly measures are still needed to maintain it and fight against the water. Considering the number of failed island projects in Dubai and the immense challenges that Pebble Jumeirah will face in the future, these projects are not exactly a success. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any copyright infringement claims arising from the use of these videos are not intentional.
