High-Rise Steel Structure Fabrication for an Aviation Landmark

Xiamen Airlines Headquarters Tower is located in the eastern part of Xiamen Island, on the southwest side of the intersection of Xianyue Road and Huandao Trunk Road. Situated in the Cross-Strait Financial Center area, the project is an important headquarters base developed by Xiamen Airlines and has become a representative high-rise landmark in the region.

The project covers a land area of approximately 22,000 m² and a total building area of approximately 175,000 m². It mainly consists of a 185-meter office tower and a 140-meter five-star hotel tower, with supporting podium facilities. With a total investment of nearly RMB 3 billion, the project represents a major aviation headquarters development and an important urban landmark project in Xiamen.

Yaohai Steel Structure completed nearly 3,000 tons of steel structure fabrication for the project, providing reliable steel component support for the construction of this high-standard headquarters complex.

High-Rise Complex, Landmark Building Standards

Xiamen Airlines Headquarters Tower integrates headquarters office space, a five-star hotel, supporting commercial areas, leisure, financial and cultural functions. It is a typical high-rise mixed-use complex with strong regional identity and long-term operational value.

Projects of this type place high requirements on structural safety, architectural image, spatial quality and long-term building performance. As an important part of the building structure, steel components must be fabricated with stable quality, accurate dimensions and reliable connection precision.

The construction of the 185-meter office tower and the 140-meter hotel tower required high standards for steel component fabrication, welding quality, connection accuracy, component delivery and on-site lifting coordination. In high-rise buildings, the manufacturing accuracy of steel components directly affects installation efficiency and overall structural construction quality.

Precision Fabrication, Supporting Headquarters Construction

For Xiamen Airlines Headquarters Tower, Yaohai Steel Structure completed nearly 3,000 tons of steel structure fabrication. Facing the requirements of a high-rise headquarters project, the company organized steel component manufacturing, quality inspection and finished product delivery based on structural drawings, component specifications, connection details and construction schedule requirements.

In a high-standard headquarters development, a steel structure supplier must do more than simply produce steel components. It must ensure dimensional accuracy, stable quality, clear batch management and reliable delivery. Each batch of components needs to match the on-site construction sequence and coordinate smoothly with the main structure, façade, MEP systems and interior finishing works.

Through precise fabrication and stable supply, Yaohai Steel Structure helped support the progress of this aviation headquarters project and demonstrated its ability to serve complex high-rise building construction.

A Long-Term Landmark, Demonstrating Project Strength

Xiamen Airlines Headquarters Tower has been described as a significant milestone in Xiamen Airlines’ development and a new landmark in Xiamen’s Cross-Strait Financial Center area. Public information also notes that the project applies green building concepts and received LEED Gold pre-certification during the design stage.

By participating in the steel structure fabrication of this project, Yaohai Steel Structure demonstrated its manufacturing capability for high-rise buildings, corporate headquarters, hotel complexes and urban landmark developments.

This project serves as an important reference case for clients planning aviation headquarters, corporate headquarters buildings, high-rise office towers, five-star hotel complexes and landmark mixed-use developments. It fully reflects Yaohai Steel Structure’s comprehensive capability in high-standard steel fabrication, precision manufacturing, stable supply and large-scale project support.
