Web-based resources containing images, tables, texts and associated data on the construction of West Kowloon Expressway.
In October 1989 the Hong Kong Government announced the decision to build a new airport at Chek Lap Kok on the northern shore of Lantau Island. The decision was subsequently sanctioned by the Sino-British Governments, to provide access to the new airport which was scheduled to be substantially completed by mid 1997. A series of roadworks including the West Kowloon Expressway had to be completed in time with the opening of the new airport. The expressway was finally opened to traffic in February 1997. Civil Engineering, construction, geotechnical, building site 1. Teachers can draw examples and illustrative material for lectures and demonstration. 2. Students can use the web-site for research and project work. All required plug-in downloadable from the site Designed for undergradute Civil and Building Engineering students. To enhance the learning and teaching of Civil and Building Engineering through ready access to virtual experiences on a variety of construction sites. 1. To enable virtual site visits. 2. To provide multi-media enhancement of teaching and learning material. 3. To provide supplementary material for courses in Civil and Building Engineering. 4. To provide resource material for students conducting independent studies. |
