Chinese Workers Build 15 story Hotel in 6 Days



Using prefabricated materials, Chinese workers in the south-central Chinese city of Changsh completed a hotel construction project in just six days. As the Yahoo blog, the Upshot wrote, If nothing else, this remarkable achievement will stoke further complaints from American economic pundits that China's economy is far more accomplished than ours in tending to such basics as construction.

In addition to the small amount of time the hotel took to build, the hotel is made of soundproofed and thermal-insulated materials designed to withstand a magnitude 9 earthquake.
