15-story hotel in six days

Time lapse video

Six days. That’s how long it took to build this level 9 Earthquake-resistant, sound-proofed, thermal-insulated 15-story hotel in Changsha, China. Complete with everything, from the cabling to three-pane windows. The foundations were already built, and despite the frenetic pace of construction, no workers were injured. From HERE
