Collapse of Islamabad Airport – Doubts on Chinese construction quality

Since morning a video went viral showing the leakage and collapse of ceiling of Islamabad International Airport (IIAP) in social media. 

IIAP has been operating since 2018 and Pakistan handed over the construction of the IIAP to China State Construction Engineering Corporation (CSCEC), one of the largest state-owned construction companies of China. Reportedly, CSCEC took 2.6 billion dollars for the completion of the IIAP which draws many doubts over construction quality of CSCEC. The great IIAP is now leaking with water for 56 millimeters of rainfall on August 14th.


According to airport authorities there’s heavy leakage at various points and numerous pieces of ceiling have chipped off in last three days. IIAP officials are struggling to flush out the rainy water. An inquiry into the alleged faulty construction of the IIAP has been going on for the past two years. Rainwater has repeatedly entered the airport on earlier occasions in the past as well. Pakistan netizens have targeted their politicians for poor quality of IIAP construction. The Islamabad airport was built just two years ago and an inquiry into its faulty construction is currently underway after rainwater entered the airport on multiple occasions in the past.

The IIAP became fully operational in early 2018, with all flight operations shifting there from the Benazir Bhutto International Airport. It spans over an area of 4238 acres of land and is said to be the country's first Greenfield airport. Designed in a "Y" shape, the new airport includes 15 passenger boarding bridges, a passenger-friendly terminal, two runways, three taxiways along with facilities to accommodate two double-deck A380, as many as 15 remote bays, and seven remote bays for small aircraft. Reputation of China's CSCEC was spoiled after the airport leakage.
