    heard about it, parang some part of the reclamation isn't solid enough after the structure is built...

    sayang naman ito. dapat na survey muna ng maayos yung lugar bago tinayo yung mall dyan.

    Malapit kase talaga dun sa mismong dagat yan eh.. saka sobrang bigat ng structure, baka hindi makaya ng lupa. Pero parang nakakapagtaka din dahil di naman sila mag co-construct ng ganyang kalaki kung di kakayanin ng foundation or ng lupa. Baka naman tsismis lang.

    last time I read, lumulubog talaga siya pero cant remember kung per cm or per mm lang naman daw. kung ganito na lang, then it's normal. I watched a national geographic episode about Japan, sa osaka ata yun, yun airport nila nasa reclaimed land din. world-class pa din yun airport kahit lumulubog.

    actually, yang area na yan eh reclaimed yan. dati dagat yan eh. i remember the time when i was a kid, we used to go walking dyan sa roxas boulevard na untouched pa talaga.

    in reclaimation, it is normal for a land to sink into the sea an inch every year. malambot and tambak lang yang lupang yan eh.

    Heard of the sinking SM Mall problem but the location was different. It was SM Marilao. The mall was built on a lot which was formerly a rice paddy.

    i think there's a truth to this. that part of the metropolis is reclaimed land. if my memory serves me right, i remember reading an article that says the contractors who dumped the soil did not pack-in the dirt tight enough.

    however, tambak tends to settle in (sink) tighter only after a couple of years. rain and water that would be absorbed by the fill, once dried, would pack the soil in.

    if that is true then hingi nalang sila tulong sa japan katulad ng ginawa ng japan sa airport nila located sa reclamation area din.

    sa tingin ko sanay narin yung SM na magtayo sa reclamation area. kasi yung sm cebu i think nakatayo din sa reclamation area. pati yung sa bacolod na sm inuumpisahan din yung construction sa reclamation area din.
