Intoduction The issue taken on in this project is the design of a tall building in Cape Town. The Cape Town CBO is locked geographically between the mountain and sea, limiting its expansion. This has resulted in an increased land value there and a motivation to build tall. Since 1994 a height limit of 60m has been imposed in the city, which has now been challenged. The first post-Apartheid tall building is currently under - SH.;:~~ construction in Cape Town. reaching a height of ] 50m. It shows that c::­ tall buildings are an issue wIDch architects in Cape Town win have to FIGURE 1: Cape Town CSO (google images, engage with once again. edited) The CBD contains a number of relatively tall buildings, constructed between 1960 and Lesley Beedle, founder of the Council for Tall Buildings and Urban 1993. It shows that the land value of plots Habitat (CTBUH) wrote that a tall building "is a building whose heighl and economic booms at certain time periods creates d(fl erent condilions in the design. construction, and operation had motivated developers to build tall. F om those Iha! exist in "common" buildings (~l{[ cerlain region and period" (CTBUH, 2011). The style, height and visibility promote tall buildings as cultural icons (Jencks, 2002). It is for these reasons that the design of a tall building is an interesting topic for an architectural thesis. The project aims to present a holistic scope of engagement when it comes to the design of a tall building, engaging with the issue at an ur­ ban scale as well as in detail. A part of the focus is to show a technical understanding oftall buildings, to show that they are not low buildings extruded vertically but are technically distinct. With the re-emergence of tall buildings,

Zu Informationen zu - Der Vorbereitung meines Studienaufenthaltes - Auswahl der Universität - Ankunft und Formalitäten in Kapstadt - Wohnsituationen - Und ersten Impressionen aus Südafrika verweise ich auf meinen Zwischenbericht zu finden auf der DAAD-Homepage (unter www.daad.de/medien/südafrika_zwischenbericht_max-sebastian_obbarius.pfd ), in dem diese Themen ausführlich beschrieben sind. Im folgenden Bericht versuche ich lediglich dem Leser meinen Aufenthalt etwas anschaulicher nahe zu legen. Im Anschluss auf den Bericht werde ich für diejenigen Ingenieure, die Interesse haben, an der UCT zu studieren, die einzelnen Module, die ich belegt habe, näher beschreiben. 1 Abschlussbericht – University of Cape Town Max-Sebastian Obbarius Leben in Südafrika Südafrika – ein Land der großen Gegensätze. Das trifft in jeder Hinsicht auf das Land zu. Die Landschaft, die Kultur, die Verteilung der Reichtümer, die Menschen, die Rassen – Rasse ein Begriff, der uns Deutschen aufgrund unserer Geschichte nur schwer über die Lippen geht und der auch im Bewusstsein möglichst vermieden wird. Ein weiterer Gegensatz zwischenDeutschland und Südafrika also. In dem einen Land wird der Begriff vermieden, wo es nur geht, im anderen wird mit dem Begriff förmlich um sich geschmissen. In der Politik, bei Förerdungsprogrammen (Black Economic Empowerment), auf der Straße, bei Demonstrationen, bei Witzen. Und trotzdem, und das ist der nächste Gegensatz, bin ich selten in einem Land so freundlich und vorbehaltlos aufgenommen worden wie in Südafrika.
