150m Slipform Slide Complete at Taichung Power Plant

Slipform slide completed on 150-meter reinforced concrete chimney at Taichung Power Plant.

Balanced Engineering & Construction (BEC) has reached a pivotal milestone in its ongoing project at Taiwan’s Taichung Power Plant. The final truckload of concrete has been poured, completing the vertical slide at 144.75 metres. This achievement marks a significant phase in constructing the plant’s second environmental compliance chimney for the 2 × 1300MW combined cycle power facility, a critical step toward lowering emissions and advancing a more sustainable energy future for the region.

Slipforming Excellence with 5,400 Cubic Metres of Concrete

Constructing this towering structure involved the placement of nearly 5,400 cubic metres of concrete, executed through a slipforming technique known for its strength and efficiency in vertical builds. Quality, safety, and consistency were upheld from the base to the final meter, true cornerstones of of BEC’s commitment to excellence in project delivery.

Despite days of relentless rain and strong winds, BEC’s engineering team pressed forward, showcasing remarkable determination, safety-first discipline, and cohesive teamwork. Their performance highlights the resilience that defines BEC’s operational excellence across complex, high-risk environments.

With the slipform phase now complete, BEC is gearing up for the next challenge, lifting the structural steel and moving one step closer to full project delivery.
