With China's infrastructure strength getting stronger and stronger, many countries have begun to entrust their own difficult projects to the Chinese side to build, such as the infrastructure maniac has created the tallest building in Africa, with its own strength to complete the impossible task, and also refreshed the world record, this let the infrastructure maniac break the world record of the building, is the Algerian Grand Mosque Minaret, because the Chinese side uses the top construction technology, so this tower has a hundred years of service life is not a dream at all.

Algeria is a country on the Mediterranean coast, relying on oil trade, but also make it one of the richest countries in North Africa, it is precisely because of this, Algeria has enough funds to build a large mosque in the country, this mosque has a minaret, prayer hall, Islamic college, library and cultural center and other more than a dozen buildings, the total investment is as high as 7 billion, because the Arab side itself can not complete the project construction, so take the form of international bidding, hope to ask foreign engineering companies to help build.

After Algeria threw out the order, many foreign infrastructure powers also rushed to the scene, want to seize the order, but other buildings are easy to build, only this minaret is difficult for countries, and some countries have also advised the Arab side, it is best to abandon this project, or adjust the construction plan, otherwise no country in the world can help the Algerian side to complete the project construction, but this country is not prepared at all, and in a short period of time, it will not find other countries to help design a new minaret, even if it is to redesign the plan, Maybe the previous layout also needs to be completely overturned, and the cost will be great at that time, and finally China will take the project.

So how hard is this minaret to build? Its height reaches 265 meters, a total of 42 floors, so it seems that the construction of this tower does not seem to be too difficult, after all, the domestic high-speed more than 300 meters of buildings, at least there are dozens, Algeria this minaret, the height is less than half of The tallest building in China, but can not be despised by this project, after all, foreign engineering companies have also built high-rise buildings, but still by this project to be difficult.

In order to be able to make the minaret smoothly built, the engineering team used a total of more than 8,000 tons of steel structure, and this is not the most difficult, to know that Algeria is located on the Mediterranean coast, belongs to the Mediterranean seismic belt, and the high-rise building is most afraid of the big earthquake, if because of the earthquake caused by the collapse of the tower, it will definitely cause serious consequences, and the general high-rise building seismic level is only 8, the minaret has reached 9 levels, far beyond the standards of Western countries.

Being able to help Algeria complete this project fully witnessed China's infrastructure strength, and affected by this, more and more African countries began to contract projects to Chinese companies, such as Egypt's tallest building is also built by China, and even the country's new capital is also responsible for the Chinese team, which seems to be the strength of the infrastructure demon.
