Scheduled for completion in 2023, the 36-classroom primary school at Tai Po Area 9 is the first primary school building in Hong Kong adopting MiC for all 36 numbers of typical classrooms, typical lavatories for students, typical electrical rooms and pantry. The valuable experience of MiC design and implementation gained in this project will set a good example and lesson learnt for the forthcoming MiC school developments in the future.
The repetitive design of all 36 standardised classrooms is well-suited for the adoption of MiC. In general, each classroom is sub-divided into four volumetric units prefabricated with reinforced concrete elements and completed with the required finishes, fixtures and building services in an off-site factory under stringent quality control. In addition, MiC is also adopted for the typical lavatories for student, typical electrical rooms and pantry. The total number of MiC modules to be constructed for the school is 181.
