A Chinese construction company has impressed the industry across the world after building a 57-story skyscraper for only 19 days.

The construction consists of concrete and glass and is located in the central part of the country. Company's Vice President stated that a popular method has been used to allow the construction of three storeys per day.

The new ambition of the constructors will be to complete the highest building in the world - 220 storeys, for merely three months.

 

''Using traditional methods, everything needs to be done brick by brick,'' engineer from the company has stated in an interview. ''Our system, however, allows us to merely attach several parts of the construction.''

This method is already in use in both the UK and the US.
