Our participation in important works and important time is to CARSO Plaza, the shopping and business complex designed as a mini city in the heart of Polanco in Mexico City. With investment of approximately 3.500 and generating 800 jobs MDD and that despite the difficult global economic situation continues to advance a normal rhythm. The piece stands on a surface of 54.000 m², of which 50% will be devoted to green areas and an area of 500,000 square meters of construction of buildings. The work should be completed in 2010.

Carso Plaza with 430 apartments in two spectacular towers and a shopping mall which will house the group's major stores such as Sears, Sanborns, and the Bank Mixup Inbursa. 9 buildings were constructed with 5 and 6 levels of underground parking, which includes the building Telcel (28 levels), building CARSO (22 levels), a cultural circuit that includes cinemas, two theaters for first-level restaurant and roof garden CONDUMEX a building, the corporate building and Philip-Morris Museum Jumex, with a collection of contemporary art in the world.

This important development will be the new headquarters of the Museo Soumaya to be an icon of Mexico City. The building, which is among the most sophisticated in the world, will be with Translucent Concrete in its facade. Latin American Awards, will be the sole provider of this new technology called Translucent Concrete. The museum contains about 60,000 works of body art by Carlos Slim, who is among the largest private collections of the world.

To Latin America Awards, to be the sole supplier of concrete for this major development has been, is and will be a great challenge. The total volume of concrete is estimated at 180.000 m3, of which 58.000 covered foundations. Technology-specific work has been ongoing monitoring of temperatures in the foundation (with maximum thickness of 2 m and a minimum of 1m), are required to manage ice to maintain low temperature of the concrete, with the above, it largely avoids The fissures that can end up affecting the durability of reinforced concrete (or impairment of corrosion of steel reinforcement). One of the most important is the curing system was used as foam rubber saturated with water to maintain moisture of the elements and prevent the loss or evaporation of water due to the high temperature of the concrete.

It is relevant to mention the members of the company and have enabled the achievement of results in this great work, the work performed by superintendents of each of these 6 plants, operators, technical area, technical assistance, the department pumping safety and the full support of the Corporación Moctezuma address.

Surely this requires a great team, and to achieve this is of great value coordination between builders, the quality monitoring and Latin Awards.
