Ali2 1Urban Planning and Policy Department, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL 60607, USA 2School of Architecture, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL 61820, USA Abstract There is much architectural and engineering literature which discusses the virtues of exterior bracing and diagrid systems in regards to sustainability - two systems which generally reduce building materials, enhance structural performance, and decrease overall construction cost. By surveying past, present as well as possible future towers, this paper examines another attribute of these structural systems - the blend of structural functionality and aesthetics. Given the external nature of these structural systems, diagrids and exterior bracings can visually communicate the inherent structural logic of a building while also serving as a medium for artistic effect. -

Construction of the office building began in early 2005 and was completed in 2009 with the installation of some remaining cladding panels at the top of the tower. The building topped out at 360 m (1,180 ft) in 2008, becoming the third-tallest building in Dubai, after Emirates Park Towers and Burj Khalifa. Almas Tower has 74 floors, 70 of which are commercial alongside four service floors. The tower is located on its own artificial island in the centre of the Jumeirah Lakes Towers Free Zone scheme, the tallest of all the buildings on the development when completed. It was designed by Atkins Middle East, who designed most of the JLT Free Zone complex. The tower is being constructed by the Taisei Corporation of Japan in a joint venture with ACC (Arabian Construction Co.) who were awarded the contract by Nakheel Properties on 16 July 2005.[2] Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), the owner of the tower, was the first to move in. -

Introduction With the development of the HISTAR steels, ArcelorMittal has succeeded in creating structural steels combining high yield strength with excellent toughness at low temperatures and outstanding weldability. These material properties were considered incompatible until now. This development was made possible by the innovative “in line” Quenching and Self- © Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP / dbox Studio Studio LLP / dbox Owings & Merrill © Skidmore, Tempering (QST) process, developed by ArcelorMittal Europe - Long Products in cooperation with the Centre de Recherches Métallurgiques in Liège. The QST process enables the cost-effective production of high-strength steels. HISTAR steels are delivered in accordance with the European Technical Approval ETA-10/156. They are in full compliance with European and other national standards. Hot rolled H-beams in HISTAR grades enable the construction of innovative and competitive structures. Engineers take full advantage of the excellent HISTAR properties when designing gravity columns of high-rise buildings, long- span trusses and offshore structures. Furthermore, the new steels are recommended in case of stress governed as well as seismic design. -
The Impact of Increasing Tall Tower Construction in the Middle East MARSH REPORT February 2017
MARSH REPORT February 2017 Sky-high Risk: The Impact of Increasing Tall Tower Construction in the Middle East MARSH REPORT February 2017 CONTENTS 3 Introduction 6 Rising Heights, Rising Risks 8 Heightened Risk Mitigation 12 Mitigating And Transferring Tall Building Risks 13 Conclusion 14 About Marsh 14 About This report 2 Marsh MARSH REPORT February 2017 INTRODUCTION Skylines across the globe have been rising considerably over the past decade. One region where this trend towards taller construction has been particularly visible is in the Middle East. In recent years, the region has become the home to some of the tallest buildings in the world, and recently announced projects show that this trend is not stopping in the near future. With tall building projects skyrocketing, the monumental risks involved in constructing these projects must be considered carefully. Tall building projects are complex and represent a huge concentration of assets, and, if something does go wrong, it could lead to high costs for project developers. Sky-high Risk: The Impact of Increasing Tall Tower Construction in the Middle East 3 MARSH REPORT February 2016 FIGURE 1 The Middle East’s tallest buildings (completed and planned) Source: Skyscraper Center The graphic below (FIGURE 1) shows a selection of the tallest completed, under construction, and proposed buildings in the Middle East. Out of these buildings, 12 are proposed or under construction, demonstrating how skylines in these countries are set to reach new heights over the next decade, maintaining the growing trend towards tall tower construction. The region remained largely unchanged during the 1980s and 1990s, with only the Burj Al Arab (UAE), the Baynunah Hilton Tower (UAE), and the Al Attar Business Tower (UAE) being completed at a height of more than 150 meters. -
Placemaking in the High-Rise City: Architectural and Urban Design Analyses Kheir Al-Kodmany†
International Journal of High-Rise Buildings International Journal of June 2013, Vol 2, No 2, 153-169 High-Rise Buildings www.ctbuh-korea.org/ijhrb/index.php Placemaking in the High-Rise City: Architectural and Urban Design Analyses Kheir Al-Kodmany† Urban Planning and Policy Department, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chigaco 60607, USA Abstract The past decade has witnessed an unprecedented boom in tall and supertall building construction worldwide (Wood, 2011). Because of their massive bulk and soaring height, tall buildings often create serious placemaking problems. Employing extensive photographs and sketches, this paper examines architectural and urban design strategies that improve placemaking with tall buildings. The paper embraces a comprehensive approach that considers the relationship of tall buildings to their surroundings at the macro and micro scales. It also considers non-physical factors that tall buildings need to address, such as the social life the building creates. It is hoped that the placemaking factors discussed in this article will provide the required groundwork for future research that explores regulations and codes that foster placemaking with tall buildings.
