Singapore's Field of Dreams | Construction Documentary

Megastructures - World’s Longest Subsea Pipeline:    • Video  

Globally Singapore is revered for its business acumen and might, but in sporting terms, it is seen as a minnow.

Now a bold project aims to change the nation’s sporting culture forever. The grand vision is to build the world’s ultimate multi-function sports complex, which will become a magnet for the community and cement Singapore as a premier international sporting destination.

We follow over three years the team building the Singapore Sports Hub. Costing more than a billion US dollars, the ambitious project includes an ingenious indoor aquatics centre that can hold up 6,000 people, a multi-purpose arena, water sports centre, and many more retail and lifestyle facilities. The jewel-in-the-crown will be a cutting edge 55,000-seat national stadium with a unique, opening domed roof.

But before Singaporeans can enjoy all these facilities and bask in international glory, we say goodbye to the much-loved old National Stadium, which must be demolished to make way for the new facilities. Only then can the designers, engineers, and a massive international workforce begin tackling the project’s enormous challenges.

The multi-purpose facilities have to be squeezed into a compact site in densely developed Singapore, while spectators need to be kept comfortable regardless of baking tropical heat, high humidity, or torrential storms. What’s more, they must make the world’s largest programmable LED projection screen, and build the largest free-spanning dome roof ever seen.

The construction team will experience all the pressure of an elite sporting event as they face the tightest of deadlines, unexpected obstacles, and high-risk construction procedures. It’s all in the story of Singapore’s Field of Dreams
