We have successfully completed more than
1,000 km of world-class highways and related
ancillary facilities in Malaysia, Qatar, India and
the Philippines.

North-South Expressway (NSE)

The NSE is a vital link in Peninsular
Malaysia that stretches from Thailand
in the north to Singapore in the

mobilisation, resulting in growth
for the trade and tourism industries
throughout the country.

• We undertook the construction
of the expressway including
pavements, shoulders, frontage
roads and bridges as well
as the laying of asphaltic
pavements.

• We completed widening
works for the third lane at all
stretches in the Northern and
Central regions to alleviate
traffic congestion and to increase
travelling comfort and road-user

in Malaysia is a unique project that was
undertaken under extremely challenging
conditions. The bridge now caters for
more than 100,000 vehicles a day and
has resulted in a vast improvement to
the traffic flow on the bridge.

• The foundations of the bridge
were extended to support the
structures required for forming
the third lane. This required
extra safety procedures and
measures due to the sensitive
condition of the existing
foundations and surrounding
soil.

• To prevent traffic congestion,
major on-deck works and
launching of the bridge beams
were carried out at night in a
tightly controlled environment
and under extreme safety
precautions. Works below deck
were executed on a 24-hour cycle.

Our scope of works includes the construction of the superstructure of the approach spans for the massive bridge with an overall Second Penang Bridge
length of 24 km.
Another iconic feature in Penang,
Malaysia is the Second Penang Bridge,
which will be a new expressway link
that connects Penang Island to the

• Targeted for completion in
2013, the bridge will be built with

The Electrified Double Track between
Rawang and Ipoh is another notable project
that has brought about socio-economic
benefits to the overall economy and the
nation as a whole.

• Extending across 182 km, the
project involved the construction
of a new track, the renewal and
realignment of the existing track
including 41 concrete railway
bridges, culverts, 14 new
railway stations, pedestrian
bridges and 40 overhead road
bridges, which eliminated all
level crossings for new railway
tracks designed for 160 kph
speeds.

• As construction works for the
new track were carried out
alongside the existing railway
tracks, we had to closely monitor
the project and coordinate with
the relevant railway authorities
while employing stringent safety
measures at all times.

(LRT) System 2.

• The construction of the 29 km
track extends from the west to
the northeast of Kuala Lumpur
and runs through the Kuala
Lumpur Sentral transportation
hub and Kuala Lumpur city
centre.

• The project involved the
construction of 22 km of

at 1.1 km intervals along the
entire route, of which 17 are
above ground, 5 underground
and 2 at-grade.

The elevated tracks were constructed using segmental box girders, which at times were launched under heavy traffic conditions and near densely populated areas.

• The construction of the underground
stations posed immense engineering
and logistical challenges due to difficult
ground conditions compounded by a
network of underground utilities, close
proximity to high-rise structures and in
some areas, limestone formation.

We applied the Engineering Formwork System to accelerate the construction
period without compromising on quality. The system was primarily used for
the construction of columns and slabs of the buildings in the Exhibition
Area, Recreational Park and public facilities scattered throughout the site.

Beyond transportation and building infrastructure, we are part of a
consortium that is undertaking the construction of a 44.6 km long tunnel
under a mountain range for the Pahang-Selangor Raw Water Transfer
Project, a strategic water project designed to meet the anticipated high
demand of water for the commercial and industrial sectors.

• This project involves the construction of a 5.2 m diameter tunnel,
which will be bored through the Titiwangsa Main Range. This will
further exemplify our mettle and emphasise our capabilities, as we
will have to overcome varied challenges in this difficult terrain.

• Once completed the project will pump 1,890 million litres of raw
water daily from Sungai Semantan in Pahang to the Hulu Langat
water treatment facility in Selangor. This water transfer tunnel is
slated to be the longest and biggest in Southeast Asia and the sixth
biggest in the world.

By adopting best practice principles, we are able to deliver world-class civil and
infrastructure engineering and construction services for landmark projects.

Puteri Harbour

We developed infrastructure works for the Puteri Harbour project, which is
part of the Nusajaya Waterfront Precinct Development.

• Our scope of works involved the construction of the inner lagoon
