“Tempered into Steel” to Forge Premium Products; Pursuing “Gold” Through Lean Excellence to Erect a Monument | Dadi Steel Structure Wins Two More “China Steel Structure Gold Awards”
Recently, the China Association for Metal Structures in Construction announced the list of the first batch of projects awarded the 15th “China Steel Structure Gold Award,” with both the Jiangsu Garden Expo Park (Phase I) project and the Qingdao Junfeng Road Middle School Construction Project—both undertaken by Zhejiang Dadi Steel Structure Co., Ltd.—making the honor roll.
Tempered into “steel,” refined to “gold”
How is the “Gold Award” earned?
Let’s take a look together!
“Building the ‘Golden’ Quality Project, Showcasing the Splendor of the Land”
The Jiangsu Garden Expo Park (Phase I) project is located in the Tangshan Scenic Area of Jiangning District, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province. Leveraging the Tangshan National Tourism Resort and seizing the opportunities presented by industrial upgrading and ecological restoration, the project aims to create a landmark eco-tourism complex that integrates conferences, leisure, resort stays, and health-and-wellness services.

The steel structure works for Phase I of the Garden Expo Park project encompass multiple construction components, including the Main Exhibition Hall, Radisson Hotel, Waystation, Mini Railway Station, Huanghua’an Inn, Geological Science Museum, and various surrounding ancillary facilities. Our company undertook the steel structure engineering for all of these individual buildings, with a total steel consumption of 7,500 tonnes and a combined gross floor area of approximately 180,000 square meters. Notably, the Radisson Hotel, as the largest single steel-structure building in Phase I, features a complex multi-curved steel–wood hybrid roof and hyperbolic flower-shaped columns, presenting significant construction challenges.


The Qingdao Junfeng Road Middle School project is located in the Licang District of Qingdao, Shandong Province. The basement is a single, integrated structure, while the above-ground portion is divided by seismic joints into three distinct structural units: the teaching building, the covered sports field, and the auditorium. The total floor area is approximately 69,198 square meters, with a total steel consumption of 9,347 metric tons. Guided by the design theme “Planting Trees for Ten Years, Cultivating People for a Century,” the project aims to create a human-centered, park-like campus environment that fosters an engaging, “active learning”-oriented space.

The Qingdao Junfeng Road Middle School construction project marks the company’s first general contracting project in Shandong Province, and holds significant importance and value for the company’s expansion into the general contracting market for steel-structure construction both within Shandong Province and nationwide.
[Significant Achievements in Scientific and Technological Innovation]
Through close collaboration between the Technology Center and the project teams, the two major projects have achieved remarkable results in technological innovation. The projects have leveraged BIM-assisted design, BIM detailing, and BIM-supported on-site management, thereby enabling intelligent construction and smart operations throughout the entire project lifecycle.
Among them, the Jiangsu Garden Expo Park (Phase I) project has won one national-level BIM achievement award—the “Longtu Cup”—as well as six provincial- and ministerial-level BIM achievement awards, including the Shanghai BIM Competition.

The Qingdao Junfeng Road Middle School project has won two provincial- and ministerial-level BIM awards, including the “Shandong Province BIM Application Competition” and the “Zhejiang Provincial Steel Association BIM Application Competition.”
During the project construction period, a total of seven utility model patents, one invention patent, one enterprise standard, and two provincial-level prefabrication achievements were obtained, and eight papers were published in core journals, academic journals, and corporate publications.
[Highly Recognized in On-Site Evaluation]
During the two on-site review meetings, the expert panel thoroughly reviewed aspects such as project quality and control, construction complexity, technological innovation, and project management.

On-site Verification Meeting for the “Steel Structure Gold Award”
Following an on-site re-inspection of the construction quality of the steel structure project and a review of relevant documentation, including project management files, construction technical documents, and acceptance records, the expert panel expressed approval of the construction quality and offered valuable recommendations.
