Busan Urban Corporation Enhances Safety and Quality of Eco Delta City

Inspection of Construction, Quality, and Safety at EDC Phase 3, Section 2 Site
Focus on High-Risk Work and Thawing Season Safety
with Participation of Private Experts

Busan Metropolitan City Corporation (BMC, President Shin Chang-ho) conducted a joint inspection with private experts on the 18th at the Eco Delta City Phase 3, Section 2 site.

This inspection was carried out to investigate the safety management status of vulnerable areas such as embankment slopes weakened by thawing ground, underground excavation, and the construction of a bridge (L=230m, 8 lanes two-way), where the risk of disaster has increased due to ground weakening during the thawing season.

The inspection team, consisting of BMC construction managers and six private experts in soil, mechanical, and structural fields, conducted a detailed inspection of the ongoing sites including bridge construction and pipeline installation, focusing on ▲ safety management status during the placement of steel bridge girders ▲ ground conditions at the site during the thawing season ▲ appropriateness of soft ground improvement evaluations ▲ safety management status of vulnerable areas such as cut and fill slopes and drainage channels.

BMC plans to promptly address minor issues identified during the inspection on-site, and for matters requiring improvement or reinforcement, they will undergo a review process including re-verification by experts before being handled.

Shin Chang-ho, President of Busan Metropolitan City Corporation, stated, “We will continue to strengthen guidance and inspections to enhance the effectiveness of construction site execution, quality, and safety management, as well as disaster prevention in advance, through regular joint inspections with private experts.”
