Arup provides robust and advanced solutions. Arup has the knowledge and expertise to provide innovative and practical solutions in a holistic approach to design foundations and deep basements with due consideration of the superstructure requirements in respect to difficult geological conditions, site constraints as well as enabling a fast-track construction programme. Arup has developed and led the field in the implementation of shaft-grouting technique in friction barrettes, friction mini-piles, friction pre-bored H-piles as well as friction large diameters bored piles to enhance the pile capacity in Hong Kong and overseas. In close liaison with the government, Arup has also been working towards the adoption and acceptance of revised friction and end-bearing load capacities for foundations rested onto bedrock for structures encompassed by the local building regulations. 6 Marina Bay Sands, Singapore This 15.5ha waterfront resort complex features the world’s longest public cantilever at 200m above ground sitting atop three 55-storey hotel towers. height 207m ©Darren Soh ©Darren Structural engineering Arup structural engineers are at the forefront of realising We are proficient in connecting a diverse range of disciplines to optimise structural efficiency and achieve commercial and environmental sustainability.

We are at the cutting-edge of construction-led design. The use of Building Environment Modelling (BEM) is now commonplace and through 4D interfaces, enables virtual models of buildings to be constructed that facilitate evaluation of erection strategy, sequence and timings. Sustainability is intrinsic to our approach to every tall building project. In close collaboration with architects and other engineering professionals, our structural engineers establish optimal building forms that result in better building performance. The economics of tall buildings varies around the world and the international presence of Arup structural engineers enables us to understand the local market conditions and tailor tall building design to best suit the local context. 7 Seismic engineering Arup has unrivalled experience in designing tall buildings that The seismic design of tall buildings poses specific challenges related both to the complex response of tall are both earthquake-tolerant and buildings to ground movement and also the interaction economically feasible. between wind and seismic design requirements. Prescriptive building codes are based on rules for low- to medium-rise buildings that are not directly applicable to tall buildings. Arup has taken a performance-based design approach for decades and has completed projects in many places associated with earthquakes including mainland China, Japan, New Zealand, Taiwan, Indonesia, Turkey, California and Italy. We continue to work on innovative solutions for tall buildings in seismic zones. These include the 217m St Francis Shangri-La Place in Manila which incorporates damped outriggers to control both wind and seismic response. We are now designing towers upwards of 500m in earthquake zones such as the Chow Tai Fook Centre, Guangzhou soaring over 500m.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: KPF Celebrates Opening of Spring City 66 the Design Reconnects Kunming's Pedestrian Pathways As It Nods
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: KPF Celebrates Opening of Spring City 66 The design reconnects Kunming’s pedestrian pathways as it nods to the unique landscape of Yunnan Province. New York, New York – February 21, 2020 – Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) recently celebrated the opening of Spring City 66, a mixed-use development in Kunming, China. One of the largest commercial complexes in the city, the 430,000 m2 Spring City 66 is comprised of a retail podium and office tower that are carefully integrating into the surrounding context. Located adjacent to two major pedestrian-friendly boulevards and metro lines, Spring City 66’s accessibility and public amenities weave this high-density, mixed-use destination directly into the urban fabric of Kunming. Design Inspiration The design for Spring City 66 is responds to Yunnan Province’s unique landscape and its location along historic trade routes. A landscaped promenade, reminiscent of the region’s verdant valleys, is central to the project, while the surrounding undulating retail podium and a crag-like tower nod to the nearby Shilin Stone Forest’s notable limestone formations. The project’s varied program weaves along multiple levels of terraces lined with shops and restaurants, creating a vibrant destination for the city. “The KPF design for Spring City 66 illustrates our belief that the most compelling architecture strongly expresses the spirit of its place. Kunming is a city of outdoor life, of vibrant color, and exciting topography. This building reflects that character in the shape of its roofs, and in its facade materials. We worked closely with Hang Lung, as we have previously in Shanghai, Tianjin, Shenyang, Hangzhou, and Hong Kong, to weave together varied activities of working, shopping, and dwelling into one urban hive of activity,” notes KPF President and Design Principal James von Klemperer.

  • The Design of Akhmat Tower
    E3S Web of Conferences 33, 01022 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20183301022 HRC 2017 The Design of Akhmat Tower Sara Beardsley1, Alejandro Stochetti1, and Marc Cerone1 1Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, 111 West Monroe, Suite 2300, Chicago, Illinois 60603, USA Abstract. Akhmat Tower is a 435m supertall building designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture. It is currently under construction in the city of Grozny, in the Chechen Republic, in the North Caucasus region of Russia. The design of the tower was done during a collaborative process by a multi-disciplinary architectural and engineering team, based primarily in the United States and Russia. During this process, the designers considered many factors including, most primarily, the cultural and historical context, the structural requirements given the high seismicity of the region, and the client’s programmatic needs. The resulting crystalline-shaped tower is both an aesthetic statement and a performative architectural solution which will be a new landmark for Chechnya. “The Design of Akhmat Tower” describes in detail the design process including structural considerations, exterior wall design, building program, interior design, the tuned mass damper, and the use of building information modeling. 1 Introduction In 2014, Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture (AS+GG) was commissioned to design a signature tower adjacent to the Suzha river in Grozny, Chechnya - a Republic of Russia located in the north Caucasus region near the Caspian Sea. This tower is to be a new icon specifically for the region – and is named after the first President of Chechen Republic, Akh- mat Haji Kadyrov [1]. The design was done by a team of over one hundred people, based primarily in the United States and Russia, and utilized expertise from architects and engineers with vast experience in super-tall building design.
