Ark Hotel Construction time lapse building 15 storeys in 2 days (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps0DSihggio#ws)
Interesting to watch...
The work crew erected the hotel -- a soundproofed, thermal-insulated structure reportedly built to withstand a magnitude 9 earthquake -- with all prefabricated materials. In other words, a crew of off-site factory workers built the sections, and their on-site counterparts arranged them on the foundation for the Ark project.

That is very, very 8) nice clean fast job and safety outstanding.
But my question would be. How many prep-workdays and training days along with all the ground work days did it take in all? Looks like the erector set from years ago only on a very large scale. The difference between little kids toys and big kids toys is cost. lolol
