    Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City By Alamira Reem Bani Hashim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair Professor Michael Southworth Professor Greig Crysler Summer 2015 © Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Abstract Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair The overarching objective of this research project is to explore and document the urban history of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is organized as a comparative study of urban planning and design processes in Abu Dhabi during three major periods of the city’s development following the discovery of oil: (1) 1960-1966: Sheikh Shakhbut Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule (2) 1966-2004: Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule; and (3) 2004-2013: Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s rule. The intention of this study is to go beyond a typical historical narrative of sleepy village-turned-metropolis, to compare and contrast the different visions of each ruler and his approach to development; to investigate the role and influence of a complex network of actors, including planning institutions, architects, developers, construction companies and various government agencies; to examine the emergence and use of comprehensive development plans and the policies and values underlying them; as well as to understand the decision-making processes and design philosophies informing urban planning, in relation to the political and economic context of each period.

  • Ahmed Sameer
    © Ahmed Sameer © Ahmed Sameer On 29th of March, 2014, Earth Hour celebrated its 8th anniversary. Once again, Earth Hour called on the world to unite and demonstrate the necessity of taking action against climate change by switching off their light for one hour. This year, Earth Hour’s impact was record-breaking worldwide, reaching over hundreds of millions of people in 162 countries in over 7000 cities. Famous landmarks all over the world switched off for the hour, such as the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Golden Gate Bridge in California and a new landmark this year - the Sultan Ahmed Mosque in Turkey. Beyond the global switch off, Earth Hour called for an amplified, multiplied and powerful hour through the launch of a new platform “Earth Hour Blue”. 2014 marks the UAE’s 7th year participating in Earth Hour; and as darkness swept over the 7 emirates on the night of 29th March 2014, the world’s tallest building, the UAE’s Burj Khalifa and the iconic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque switched off in support of the hour. Residents also participated in an amplified Earth Hour in response to EWS-WWF’s call to not only to switch off for the hour, but also to switch to energy efficient lighting as a first step towards long term impact and change. Andy Ridley, the CEO of Earth Hour commented on how the crescendo of Earth Hour made 2014 to be one of the most influential year yet. “It is a fairly wild experience to watch as countries and cities from around the world start to share their plans for the night and beyond the hour, each story builds momentum and inspires other teams to share and do more.

One of the most important reasons driven the achievement is the continuously evolvement of structural systems. In this paper, previous classifications of structural systems are summarized and different types of structural systems are introduced. Besides the structural systems, innovations in other aspects of today's design of high-rise buildings including damping systems, construction techniques, elevator systems as well as sustainability are presented and discussed.

Unpublished © Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat / Philip Oldfield; Bronte Doherty Architecture/Design Offset Cores: Trends, Drivers and Frequency in Tall Buildings Abstract This research explores the trends, drivers and frequency of offset cores in the world’s tallest buildings. It charts the history of tall building layouts, exploring the motivation behind offset-core morphologies emerging in the second half of the 20th century. Drawing from the literature, it then provides a definition for central, perimeter, mixed and offset cores, allowing for the categorization of the future 500 Dr. Philip Oldfield Bronte Doherty tallest buildings in terms of core position. It also identifies the tallest 20 buildings in the world with offset cores. The Hanking Center Tower in Shenzhen, at 358.9 meters Authors in height, was confirmed as the world’s tallest building with an offset core, as of the Dr. Philip Oldfield, Director of the Architecture Program end of 2018. Given a recent increase in the vertical development of smaller sites in Faculty of the Built Environment, UNSW Sydney Room 2009, Red Centre West Wing dense urban environments, and increased emphasis on passive design and Sydney NSW 2052, Australia +61 2 9385 6821 environmental performance, the authors expect a greater diversity of core [email protected] locations to emerge among the world’s tallest buildings in the future.
