SYNOPSIS

There are many current underground projects in Singapore such as Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Thomson East Coast Line (TEL), North South Corridor (NSC) highway, Deep Tunnel Sewerage System (DTSS), Singapore Power Underground Substation (UGSS), underground drainage, sewerage and water pipelines projects. This webinar will illustrate the regulatory framework in Singapore for designing and submission approval, followed by construction supervision.  Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), Building Construction Authority (BCA), Land Transport Authority (LTA) Development & Building Control (DBC), Public Utilities Board (PUB) and Singapore Power Group (SPPG) have various regulatory framework and guidelines to be complied for underground projects.  Due to time constraints, this webinar will not be able to explain all the above, but this webinar will use some case histories to illustrate some of the more commonly encountered regulation to be complied with.  This webinar will also highlight some of the latest guidelines such as observational approach, with case histories to illustrate. Hope you will enjoy the webinar.
