On the third day of January, a significant event unfolded in the vibrant heart of Cubao. Top executives from Megawide Construction Corporation and 8990 Holdings, Inc. graced the topping-off ceremony of the Urban Deca Cubao project. This event signaled a major milestone towards the completion of the ambitious structure.
Topping off, or topping out, is a builders’ rite traditionally held when the final beam is placed atop a structure. It marks an important juncture in the construction process, signaling the structure's imminent completion.
The 47-storey Urban Deca Cubao stands proudly as a mixed-use development, its topping-off serving as a testament to the nearly decade-long partnership between Megawide and 8990 Holdings, Inc. This partnership has given rise to several successful projects, affirming the duo's combined strength and synergy.
Urban Deca Cubao joins the roster of successful undertakings between these major construction players. Their past collaborations include Urban Deca EDSA in 2017 and Urban Deca Mall & Residential Buildings-Manila in 2022. Currently, Urban Deca Ortigas is underway, collectively totaling almost a million square meters in project area.
Frederick Tan, Chief Operating Officer for Construction at Megawide, highlighted the innovative methodologies employed in the Urban Deca Cubao project. Their unique precast technology enables environmentally friendly processes, cost efficiencies, and faster turnaround times.
Tan confirmed that since their initial engagement with 8990 Holdings, Megawide has provided unique engineering solutions that meet their clients’ exacting standards. These solutions have contributed greatly to speedier project delivery.
Despite the challenges posed by Urban Deca Cubao’s location and proximity to main thoroughfares, Megawide's experience and expertise enabled a seamless construction process. The use of advanced construction equipment and logistics resolved constraints and streamlined operations.
Megawide's commitment to elevating engineering standards in the country is evident in their work. Tan affirmed that they are keen on working with more developers in the future, while also offering low-cost housing options to a larger Filipino population.
The collaboration with 8990 Holdings brings Megawide's vision of a First-World Philippines closer to reality. This partnership has not only resulted in successful ventures but is also a meaningful contribution to the country's development.
The topping-off of Urban Deca Cubao is a milestone worth celebrating, a testament to the successful partnership between Megawide and 8990 Holdings. Together, they forge ahead, creating structures that symbolize progress and innovation.
