​Kuala Lumpur PIPE ROOF PROJECT

Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, is famous for the Petronas Twin  Towers,
which boasts a height of 451m. As the city continues to develop day by day, it is in an urgent need to further improve the transportation network.
The KVMRT (Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit), which connects the east and west of the metropolitan area, is under construction.

The plan is to cross several aortas of the transportation network, and the pipe roof 
method with Unclemole Super has been adopted for the  underground crossing of the Kuala Lumpur Seremban Expressway, and it is currently under excavation. Since it is a big project, we have daily  inspections and safety inspections, and we are aiming for the
early completion of the construction with a close attention.
