The installation, witnessed by partners, stakeholders, engineers, and guests, showcased the four phases of the precast process: panel preparation and safety checks, crane lifting and positioning, alignment and securing, and final inspection with quality assurance.
In his closing message, Mr. Rei Yamasaki, representative of Hankyu Hanshin Properties Corp., reaffirmed the company’s commitment to excellence and to supporting developments that strengthen communities.
The program concluded with fellowship and networking sessions, underscoring the collective dedication of all partners to deliver homes that meet the highest standards of quality, sustainability, and efficiency.
