YONGNAM HOLDINGS LIMITED Co YONGNAM HOLDINGS LIMITED Co. Reg. No: 199407612N NEWS RELEASE YONGNAM CLINCHES FIFTH CONTRACT WORTH S$20.2 MILLION FOR THE MARINA COASTAL EXPRESSWAY - Total contract value for all five contracts is S$326 million Singapore, April 6, 2010 – Yongnam Holdings Limited (“Yongnam” or the “Group”), a well-established structural steel contractor and specialist civil engineering solutions provider, is pleased to announce that the Group has been awarded its fifth contract valued at S$20.2 million (the “Contract”) for the Marina Coastal Expressway (“MCE”). With this contract win, the Group has secured contracts worth a total of S$326 million for the MCE. Mr Seow Soon Yong, Chief Executive Officer of Yongnam, said: “Yongnam continues to build on its solid track record and a strong brand name with its involvement with some of Singapore’s major infrastructure projects. We are very pleased to be entrusted with another project that will form part of the strategic underground east-west transport link between three major expressways.” The dual five-lane, 5km long MCE will be a key element of the strategic island-wide road network to support the long-term growth of Singapore. The underground east- west transport link runs between the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE), the East Coast Parkway (ECP) and the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE), with direct connections to the Marina South and Straits View areas. With several upcoming developments such as the Marina Barrage, the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort, the Sail @ Marina Bay and the Marina Bay Financial Centre in the vicinity, the MCE will cater to the projected increase in traffic volume generated by the high-density Page 1 of 3 developments in the Marina Bay area and serves as an essential transport link from Marina Bay to the rest of the island. The MCE will run through segments of reclaimed land as well as feature a 420m section that runs below the Marina Bay seabed. This poses many complex technical and engineering challenges, compounded by the difficult soil conditions in the area. Excavation works could run as deep as 60 metres in certain sections and cover the entire width of the expressway. At its deepest point, the MCE will be about 20 metres below mean sea level. Yongnam will support the main contractor, Ssangyong Engineering and Construction Co. Ltd in the installation and subsequent extraction of the temporary steel pipe pile earth retaining wall of the 640m dual carriageway vehicular tunnel structure and slip tunnels. The Contract is expected to complete in May 2012. It is expected to have a favourable impact on the Group’s financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2010. About Yongnam Holdings Ltd With over 30 years of experience in steel fabrication, Yongnam excels in adding value to steel construction. The Group’s two production facilities in Tuas, Singapore and Nusajaya, Johor, Malaysia, have a total annual production capacity of 78,000 tons of steel fabrication.

Its modular strutting system continues to give the Group a strong competitive edge in meeting increasingly more stringent design and project requirements in infrastructure and construction projects.

  • Potential Use of Gyro Piler in ASEAN Countries
    Volume 5, Issue 1 March 2020 Case-History Potential Use of Gyro Piler in ASEAN Countries Teik Lim Goh Director Atsunew Giken Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) The Gyropress Method uses a newly developed press-in piling machine, so called “Gyro Piler” where rotary function is incorporated to allow tubular piles with cutting bits attached on pile toe to be inserted into a ground vertically or at varying lateral angle at both sides. In Japan where the press-in piling method is originated, the Gyropress Method has been widely applied for disaster prevention and infrastructure construction in urban area. Though the Gyropress Method has yet to be adopted in ASEAN Countries, the potential of this advanced technology to be adopted in the local construction market has been the talking point for geotechnical engineers. 1. Seawall Construction for Road Development at Marina Coastal Expressway, Singapore Marina Coastal Expressway (MCE) connects Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) and East Coast Parkway (ECP) in the east to the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) in the west, with direct connections to Marina South and Straits View areas (Fig. 1). With the development of Marina Bay Financial Centre and Gardens by the Bay, MCE caters for the expected increase in traffic volume around the Marina Bay area. The dual five-lane, 5km long expressway will support the large number of commuters who travel to offices, homes and attractions in the Marina Bay area. Fig. 1.
