Project Location: Hexi CBD Core Area, Nanjing, China
Project Type: Super high-rise financial office complex (8 office towers, including a 200m landmark tower)
GETO Products: Intelligent climbing scaffold system
Project Overview
Nanjing Financial City Phase III is a major municipal project in Nanjing, located in the core of Hexi CBD, seamlessly connecting to Metro Line 10 and the under-construction Line 7. The project is contracted by Nanjing Branch of Shanghai Construction No. 1 Group. The total gross floor area is approximately 701,000 m², comprising 8 office towers.
GETO is responsible for the construction of the “crown jewel” towers A01, A02, and C02: Tower A01 reaches a height of 200 metres, Tower A02 is 127.5 metres, and Tower C02 is 132 metres. To meet the high demands of construction efficiency, precision, and environmental friendliness for super high-rise buildings, the project adopted GETO’s intelligent climbing scaffold system.
Project Characteristics
- Large cantilever structure at approximately 100 metres height: All super high-rise main towers feature large cantilever structures. The cantilever section of Tower A01 is located at nearly 100 metres above ground, with a cantilever length of 4 metres. This places extremely high demands on the adaptability, safety, and precision of the climbing scaffold system.
- Adjacent to residential areas, strict safety and environmental requirements: The project is in a core urban area surrounded by residential communities, requiring very strict control of dust, noise, falling object protection, and other safety and environmental measures.
- Complex construction organisation for multiple super high-rise towers: Multiple super high-rise towers being constructed simultaneously require rational planning of material storage yards, crane positioning, and climbing sequences to ensure smooth progress at each milestone.
GETO Solution
- Intelligent climbing scaffold system – Provides a fully enclosed, automated climbing scaffold for the super high-rise structure, allowing the scaffold to climb floor by floor with the main structure, significantly improving高空 safety and reducing schedule impact from external scaffolding erection.
- Special solution for the high‑altitude large cantilever – A scientifically developed attachment and reinforcement plan for the climbing scaffold at the cantilever section, using precise load calculations and node designs to ensure scaffold stability and safety.
- Refined site management – Rational layout of material storage areas, optimisation of crane and scaffold coordination, and minimisation of impact on nearby residents, meeting strict safety and environmental standards.
- Full‑process technical support – GETO’s technical team participated from detailed design and solution validation through on‑site.
Project Value
- Significant technical achievements – The project has filed 4 patents, won provincial/municipal QC achievements (one each), received the “Shanghai Green Construction Site” title, and completed 2 scientific research projects and 1 project management innovation outcome, demonstrating recognised technical strength.
- Enhanced safety and efficiency – Under complex conditions (large cantilever, high altitude, proximity to residences), the intelligent climbing scaffold system ensured safe and efficient main structure construction, laying a solid foundation for topping out Tower A01 and other super high-rise towers.
- Landmark significance – Upon completion, Nanjing Financial City Phase III will become a new financial landmark in the Hexi CBD core. GETO’s high‑quality intelligent climbing scaffold system helps Shanghai Construction Group build this benchmark project, further consolidating GETO’s leading position in the super high‑rise formwork and scaffold sector.
