Diriyah Company witnessed its largest volume concrete pour in a single location to date. El Seif Engineering Construction and China State Construction joint venture poured 6100m3 of reinforced concrete for the underground Main Spine Tunnel roundabout foundation slab, which links to four neighboring tunnels, in the southern area of the construction.
The pour was finished in 21 hours, ahead of time, thanks to perfect coordination between the batching plants and logistics teams, using a fleet of 75+ concrete trucks from 5 separate batching plants on-site and 7 pumps. While the initial phase of the pour used concrete from outside sources, the remainder was drawn from on-site batching plants, including those owned by other contractors, demonstrating a truly collaborative operational partnership.
