Project Description SHUM YIP Upperhills LOFT 1 SHUM YIP UpperHills LOFT Location: Shenzhen, China Date: 2018 Architect: Urbanus Solution and technologies: Envelope Introduction The Shum Yip UpperHills Loft, a Urbanus project, is a high-end commercial complex with 6 high-rise towers containing offices, hotels and business apartments. Adjacent to the CBD and Huaqiangbei shopping district, it is also located between two center parks in Shenzhen. 2 Description Located at the interchange of Sungang Road and Huanggang Road, Futian District, Shenzen city, China, Shumyip project is one of the 20 biggest projects to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. The total construction floors are about 1.2 million m2. The project targets to be the top city complex in Asia and includes shopping street, mall, research office, LOFT, luxury hotel etc. 13.400 m2. Ductal® Envelope panels were used in the façade of LOFT. Application Shumyip project is a one of the key project with high attentions; owner would like to find a solution with high quality and durability, especially considering the impact of climate as coastal city. Secondly, the façade panels require double skin finishing, Ductal® has very good fluidity, which allows it to be casted in closed mould, and achieve high level surface finishing quality. Thirdly, the façade is designed as grill, with a 50% perforate ratio, with 20 mm thickness of the panel frame. Comparing with the traditional concrete or GRC solution, Ductal® can easily achieve the designed perforate ratio, no need for rebar or string to reinforce. Challenge At the beginning stage, the project owner explored many solutions, and also tried to get visual mock-up from several GRC manufacture. However, almost all the other mock-up was broken even during transportation. Hence, it was an opportunity to present Ductal® Envelope solution, and owner was attracted by the performance immediately. Ductal® team proceed with mock-up, engineering study supported by C&E, and expert review. Ductal® UHPC was finally selected for the façade ma- terial. 3 Optimization Ductal® has very good fluidity, which allows it to reflect the mould shape and achieve very high qual- ity surface finishing. Less water consumption reduces the material porosity and improves its dura- bility. Comparing with traditional concrete solution, Ductal® panel do not need reinforced strings, hence it can achieve very high perforated ratio, and also save labour cost and production time. Key Points • Location: Interchange of Sungang Road and Huanggang Road, Futian district, Shenzhen, China • Delivery: 180 days • Quantity: 10035m2 grill, 3400 m2 flat panel • Color: Natural White • Panel size: 2833x1640mm.

  • Urbanization and Sustainability in Asia
    5. People’s Republic of China APRODICIO A. LAQUIAN INTRODUCTION The PeopleÊs Republic of China (PRC) is the most populated country in the world and is undergoing rapid economic development and urbanization. Relevant statistics on the countryÊs development are presented in Table 5.1. Most of the population still live in rural areas. However, by 2030, urban populations are expected to grow by more than 300 million, with 60% of the population living in urban areas. The ability to manage this expected level of urban development will be a major challenge. Significant social and environ- mental problems are already arising from 20 years of rapid growth. This chapter examines some issues facing urbanization in the PRC and introduces three case studies: Revitalizing the Inner City·Case Study of Nanjing, Shenzhen; Building a City from Scratch; and Reviving Rust-belt Industries in the Liaodong Peninsula. The case studies provide examples of the application of good practice in support of sustainable urban development. The final part of the chapter reflects on what has been learned. The PRCÊs commitment to sustainable development can be traced to its participation at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development. Two years later, the State Council approved the „White Paper on ChinaÊs Population, Environment and Development in the 21st Century.‰ In that document, sustainability as „development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs‰ (WCED 1987) was taken as official policy. The PRC also approved Agenda 21 that spelled out its developmental policies and programs. The PRCÊs Agenda 21 program set as a target the quadrupling of the countryÊs gross national product (GNP) (1980 as the base) and increasing CCh5_101-134.inddh5_101-134.indd 101101 111/15/20061/15/2006 44:26:55:26:55 PMPM 102 Urbanization and Sustainability in Asia its per capita GNP to the level of „moderately developed countries‰ by the year 2000.

  • Low Carbon Urban Transitioning in Shenzhen: a Multi-Level Environmental Governance Perspective
    sustainability Article Low Carbon Urban Transitioning in Shenzhen: A Multi-Level Environmental Governance Perspective Zhanglan Wu, Jie Tang and Dong Wang * Urban Planning, Economics & Management School, Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen 518055, China; [email protected] (Z.W.); [email protected] (J.T.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-755-2603-3494 Academic Editors: Patricia Romero-Lankao, Mary Hayden and Olga Wilhelmi Received: 19 May 2016; Accepted: 26 July 2016; Published: 29 July 2016 Abstract: As the world’s second largest economy, China ranks among the world’s top nations when it comes to carbon emission. Accordingly, its attitude towards climate change is closely followed by all parties concerned. There have been few studies on the role of environmental governance in the transformation process to low-carbon, especially Chinese ones. This study analyzes the impact of government environmental regulation on the low-carbon city transformation process by adopting Shenzhen as the research object. One of the world’s youngest super cities, Shenzhen also happens to be the city with the lowest carbon emission intensity in China. The multi-level governance framework is a useful mechanism with which to gauge divisions of responsibility and resources. This paper uses multilevel environmental governance to explain the policy for dealing with the climate in the city of Shenzhen. Striving to explore green low-carbon development path for the whole country, Shenzhen provides practical experience for countries to cope with global climate change. Keywords: urban sustainability; environmental governance; energy policy 1. Introduction Playing a decisive role in the economic and social development, the city is the center of human life and production, more than half of the world’s population live in cities.
