The next piece of the column fits on one end of the already installed column. There should be no opening for installation unless it’s necessary since any patching and fixing is hard to hide and will require skill and time. It is very different from the panel that will receive a coating after the finish to patch and cover the repair. Care is taken in every step to prevent the surface finish of the GRC from dirt and damage.
The cladding design allows easy installation and requires little modification on-site except for the area constructed outside tolerance. Delay by others affects the GRC installation by more than five months. And the most damage is products installed damage by the worker in following up work, particularly at balcony and ground floor area where goods carry by hand or machine, dirty hand, paint causing minor damage and discolourations of the white surface. And during installation, heavy grease rain down from the tall Four Seasons Residence next door landed on the top of the horizontal beam cladding also required additional cleaning.
