Delivering Excellence in Sports Infrastructure: Amain Engineering
Development Limited’s Tin Shui Wai Open Space Project
At Amain Engineering Development Limited, we take pride in transforming communitiesthrough quality construction projects that serve real needs. Our successful completion ofthe Construction of Open Space in Area 117, Tin Shui Wai (Contract No. SS A506)exemplifies our commitment to delivering exceptional sports and recreational facilitiesthat enhance the lives of Hong Kong residents.
Project Overview: Building More Than Just Facilities
Located at the junction of Tin Wah Road and Wetland Park Road in northern Tin Shui Wai,this comprehensive 25,000 square meter project represents a significant investment incommunity infrastructure. With a total project value of HK$232.3 million, thedevelopment was completed between August 2012 and March 2014, transformingvacant land into a vibrant hub for sports and recreation.
Working as the main contractor under the Architectural Services Department, wedelivered a multi-faceted facility that addresses the critical shortage of public sportsfacilities in the Yuen Long District. Prior to this project, the district’s 586,500 residentshad access to only two full-sized football pitches, both operating at 100% utilization. Ourproject directly responded to this community need while supporting the Hong KongGovernment’s commitment to football development.
Technical Excellence: The Artificial Turf Sports Facility
Professional-Grade Playing Surface
Unlike natural turf pitches that can only provide approximately 60 sessions per monthdue to maintenance requirements, our artificial turf system delivers up to 270 usablesessions monthly. This dramatic increase in availability directly addresses the highdemand for football training facilities in the district, particularly given the presence ofprofessional teams including Tin Shui Wai Pegasus and several youth league teams.
The artificial turf system we installed meets international standards set by both FIFA andthe International Rugby Board, ensuring consistent playing conditions year-roundregardless of weather. The surface features proper drainage systems, safety compliance,and durability specifications that support intensive use while maintaining optimalperformance characteristics.
Spectator Infrastructure
Our design includes a covered spectator stand with 200 seats, providing comfortableviewing facilities that enhance the community sports experience. The covered designprotects spectators from Hong Kong’s variable weather conditions while maintainingclear sightlines to the playing field.
Innovative Building Design: The L-Shaped Service Building
