Beijing, China

Description:
The latest addition to China’s Olympic Park, the Olympic Forest Park Observation Tower is 243 meters tall, making it the largest structure in China's capital.  The Tower overlooks Beijing’s Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Mao Tse-Tung’s mausoleum, the Qianmen Gate, Drum Tower and the Bell Tower.  The Tower features five interconnected taller and shorter towers with viewing platforms going up from 186m to 243m above ground.

Products Used:
To protect the massive concrete foundation of the tower, the PENETRON System was applied to more than 30,000 square meters of concrete surface using the dry-shake application (basement slab) and coating application (retaining walls) to maximize concrete durability.
