On the morning of March 21, the Polk Urban Internet R&D and Application Center Project (hereinafter referred to as the "Polk Project") located in Lane 229, Nujiang North Road, Putuo District, officially broke ground, and the project project was in full swing. The project has been listed as a key project of the 14th Five-Year Plan of Putuo District, committed to creating a new cultural landmark in Shanghai, and is expected to be officially completed in 2025.
The 2023 National Two Sessions pointed out that this year it is necessary to accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system and promote the green transformation of development methods. Among them, we must focus on improving the level of high-end, intelligent and green. Looking at the design connotation, planning and construction of the new cultural landmark Polk Project in Putuo, it echoes this spiritual essence.
Site of the groundbreaking ceremony
As the project construction unit, China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau") deeply integrates the needs of high-quality regional economic development in the resource allocation of the project. "In terms of project team configuration, the selected experienced personnel who have 'fought tough battles' and participated in large projects are involved, and the subcontractors on site are also selected from the company's resource pool." Si Min, head of the Polk project of China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau Shanghai Branch, told reporters that the five-star construction standard will run through the entire construction of the project, and this project will also become a symbolic carrier for China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau Shanghai Company to fully and deeply integrate into Putuo.
The development concept of green and low-carbon transformation of high-end, intelligent and green construction industry runs through this project.
From the design side, the Polk project was designed by the "fair-faced concrete poet" Tadao Ando, and the entire building will be made of fair-faced concrete. "This process has significant advantages, after the overall structure of the building is completed, the façade of the building does not need to be decorated twice, which can present the natural color effect of concrete, save energy and reduce materials, and reflect the concept of green construction." Simin introduced.

"Tadao Ando's growth from a boxer to a famous architect coincides with Polk's challenge and innovative spirit of continuous cross-field breakthroughs with the 'Game +' strategy." Liu Zhongsheng, Secretary of the Party General Branch of Polk Technology Co., Ltd., said that it will integrate "game +" businesses such as animation, art, public welfare, popular science, and exhibitions to create a characteristic cultural and artistic landmark and convey the development concept of continuous experimentation, no boundaries, adhere to innovation, and green and sustainable development.
From the perspective of project construction, China Construction Eighth Engineering Bureau has introduced multiple technological innovations for the customization of the project. For example, the internal support of the first slab of the project is changed from concrete material slab to steel trestle slab; Introduce smart construction sites and use information technology to assist digital intelligent management of on-site construction; The introduction of plastering robots and intelligent steel processing machinery to enhance the gold content of the project's intelligent construction. Simin further gave an example: "At the site of the smart construction site, a wall spray system is set up, and the system is linked with the surrounding dust detection equipment through sensors, and once the dust warning indicator is reached during the construction process, the system will automatically spray and reduce dust to ensure the whole process of green construction." ”

According to reports, as a key project in Putuo District, the total investment of Polk project exceeds 1 billion yuan. According to the design plan, the project will consist of two parts, the podium and the tower, which is 14 storeys high and can accommodate 2,000 people in the future, and the podium will be used for cultural display and the expansion of corporate public service areas. After completion, it will become an Internet R&D "smart brain" to help the development of regional digital transformation, attract more technical talents to gather, improve innovation and R&D capabilities, improve the allocation efficiency of regional economic resources, drive the development of other industries in the region, and promote the high-quality development of the regional economy.
