Horizontal Construction

The document discusses two horizontal construction projects in the Philippines. The first is the ongoing NLEX-SLEX Connector Road Project, an 8km elevated expressway connecting North and South Luzon Expressways. It began construction in December 2021 and is expected to be completed in phases by 2023. The second is the accomplished Binondo-Intramuros Bridge project, which opened in April 2022 to alleviate traffic and improve accessibility between the districts of Binondo and Intramuros in Manila. Both projects aim to enhance connectivity and economic growth in their respective regions.

HORIZONTAL CONSTRUCTION

A Research Work and Reporting

Altare, Mary Rose Lomeda

INTRODUCTION

Construction Engineering is an engineering subset that involves the


design, development and supervision of a city or region's buildings,
roads and power supplies. It deals with any type of infrastructure,
including roads, railroads, bridges, tunnels, facilities, airports, ports,
dams and other utilities.
Horizontal Construction, refers to a type of construction that is
wide, rather than tall. This are typically wider and lower to the
ground.
Horizontal construction can be privately-funded as well, but it is
often government-funded.
