About HK Port Passenger Clearance Building Grensepasseringsanlegg
HK Port Passenger Clearance Building er et grensepasseringsanlegg for Hongkong–Zhuhai–Macao-broen, en sjøkryssing som forbinder Hongkong med Zhuhai og Macao. Bygningen fungerer som et transportknutepunkt og håndterer klarering av passasjerer og gods. Et bølgeformet tak, 310 meter langt og 162 meter bredt, gir bygningen ly. Taket er laget av stålkonstruksjoner og er delt inn i strukturelle seksjoner som bæres av armer med et spenn på 36 ganger 18 meter. Modulære takenheter ble prefabrikkert utenfor byggeplassen for effektiv oppføring. Bygningen står på en kunstig oppfylt øy.

- Inspiration
- The PCB is constantly filled with movement with people arriving and departing by buses, cars and taxis. It serve as a gateway for all those passing through it, providing Hong Kong with a new ‘front door’ celebrating travel and surrounded by water with views to a natural skyline of evergreen mountains and hills. The elegant modular roof form ideally lends itself to offsite pre-fabrication and has enabled an efficient construction process achieving a very high level of quality.
- Project Duration
- The PCB is located on an artificial island of approximately 150 hectares. It is reclaimed from the open waters off the northeast of the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA). The PCB is geographically located at a convenient location with good air / road / rail / sea transportation connectivity. The project commenced in December 2010 and was opened in October 2018.
