About HK Port Passenger Clearance Building Kituo cha Kuvukia Mpaka

Jengo la Ukaguzi wa Abiria la Bandari ya HK ni kituo cha kuvukia mpaka kwa ajili ya Daraja la Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao, njia ya kuvuka bahari inayounganisha Hong Kong na Zhuhai na Macao. Jengo hili linafanya kazi kama kitovu cha usafiri na hutoa huduma za ukaguzi kwa abiria na bidhaa. Paa lenye umbo la wimbi, lenye urefu wa mita 310 na upana wa mita 162, linakinga jengo hili. Paa limetengenezwa kwa chuma na limegawanywa katika sehemu za kimuundo zinazoshikiliwa na mikono inayotandaza mita 36 kwa 18. Vipande vya paa vya moduli vilitengenezwa mapema nje ya eneo la ujenzi ili kuwezesha ujenzi wenye ufanisi. Jengo hili limesimama kwenye kisiwa kilichojazwa ardhi kutoka baharini.

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.
