The main contractor is the supervisory contractor of all construction work on a project, management of sub-contractors and vendors, etc. May be referred to as "Construction Manager," however, for consistency CTBUH uses the term "Main Contractor" exclusively.
The Fujian Provincial Electric and Power Company Headquarters embodies the high-tech characteristics and modernized features of an electric power company by providing a first-rate working environment that is efficient, advanced, healthy and comfortable, as well as an icon for the city of Fuzhou. The sculptural form of the main tower adopts a mono-axially symmetric rhombus and is set at the site’s northern-most position to maintain prominence in the developing skyline, and maximizes site area to be used for public green space. The design concept creates a unique, yet culturally relevant, building.
Energy conduction is the main thematic motif. The crown incorporates a viewing space within the microwave tower. The building’s sail-like form pays tribute to the seafaring people of Fuzhou. The building uses a unique revolving aluminum ventilation assembly instead of conventional operable windows to provide a natural, easy to maintain, and cost-effective ventilation system. Additionally, this vertically integrated green system makes it a truly healthy working environment.
