  • The Global Tall Building Picture: Impact of 2018
    Tall Buildings in Numbers The Global Tall Building Picture: Impact of 2018 In 2018, 143 buildings of 200 meters’ height or greater were completed. This is a slight decrease from 2017’s record-breaking total of 147, and it brings the total number of 200-meter-plus buildings in the world to 1,478, marking an increase of 141 percent from 2010, and 464 percent from 2000, when only 262 existed. Asia continued to be the most dominant region in terms of skyscraper construction, and China within it, as in several years previously. For more analysis of 2018 completions, see “CTBUH Year in Review: Tall Trends of 2018,” pages 40-47.

    Roche Cárcel City Territ Archit (2021) 8:7 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40410-021-00136-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The spatialization of time and history in the skyscrapers of the twenty-frst century in Shanghai Juan Antonio Roche Cárcel* Abstract This article aims to fnd out to what extent the skyscrapers erected in the late twentieth and early twenty-frst cen- turies, in Shanghai, follow the modern program promoted by the State and the city and how they play an essential role in the construction of the temporary discourse that this modernization entails. In this sense, it describes how the city seeks modernization and in what concrete way it designs a modern temporal discourse. The work fnds out what type of temporal narrative expresses the concentration of these skyscrapers on the two banks of the Huangpu, that of the Bund and that of the Pudong, and fnally, it analyzes the seven most representative and sig- nifcant skyscrapers built in the city in recent years, in order to reveal whether they opt for tradition or modernity, globalization or the local. The work concludes that the past, present and future of Shanghai have been minimized, that its history has been shortened, that it is a liminal site, as its most outstanding skyscrapers, built on the edge of the river and on the border between past and future. For this reason, the author defends that Shanghai, by defn- ing globalization, by being among the most active cities in the construction of skyscrapers, by building more than New York and by building increasingly technologically advanced tall towers, has the possibility to devise a peculiar Chinese modernity, or even deconstruct or give a substantial boost to the general concept of Western modernity.

  • THE SHANGHAI TOWER Reviewing Key Structural Design Components
    MEGATALL STRUCTURES: THE SHANGHAI TOWER Reviewing Key Structural Design Components by JOSEPH M. KAUFMAN JR. University of Cincinnati Civil Engineering Student Personal Visit to Shanghai, China June 2017 Kaufman 1 Abstract Megatall skyscrapers are a prominent staple in many countries around the world. Standing at over 2,000 feet tall, the Shanghai Tower boasts the tallest building in China and is the 2nd tallest building in the world (MASS). As with any megatall structure, the Shanghai Tower has overcome a variety of unique design challenges. Introduction The Shanghai Tower is unlike any other megatall skyscraper built in the world. Standing proud along the city skyline, it vertically transforms S zones, the building creatively turns a horizontal city into a vertical metropolis. The 127 stories are divided among the nine zones of 12 to 15 floors each and include retail, office and hotel space as well as an observation deck (CIM). Special to the Shanghai Tower is its double-shell design. The exterior glass curtain wall acts as an oversized skin interior skeleton and provides plenty of community green space and common atriums for meetings and socials. These shared interior spaces provide a welcoming environment for the occupants as well as the ability to achieve LEED Gold Certification (Singh). Building 2,000 feet into the sky requires experienced and skilled engineers, and ingenious structural designers. Design engineers had to consider challenging wind load conditions, develop a composite structural core, and manage building sway. Figure 1. These sketches show the building interior and exterior working together. Notice the double- shell design in the Sectional View of the Tower.

  • Burj Khalifa, the Shard, and Rivals by Eva Bogomil
    Burj Khalifa, The Shard, and Rivals by Eva Bogomil Introduction From the early days, we have invariably been interested in the world we live in, exploring, analysing, and altering it at our will. Humanity has gone a long way from caves to modern skyscrapers, aiming for ever greater heights. The power of human ingenuity has conquered the elements to reach the sky and beyond. Nowadays technologies allow us to build skyscrapers that totally change our idea of a modern world. Throughout the centuries brilliant engineers have been inventing more advanced and complex technologies, expanding our abilities. The Acropolis, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Eiffel Tower and the Sydney Opera House are all marvellous buildings that have remained objects of admiration for historians, architects, and artists, as well as a source of inspiration for many generations. Even to the general public the structures appear breathtaking. The 21st century saw the dawn of super-skyscraper construction. The Shard, Taipei 101, the Princess Tower, the Abraj Al-Bait Towers, and the Shanghai Tower are just some of the outstanding examples the modern world can be proud of. Burj Khalifa, currently the tallest building in the world, crowns this list of our achievements (Figure 1.0) which keep attracting people, making them wonder how such structures could have been built. Figure 1.0: Height comparison of some of the tallest buildings in the world This essay will focus mainly on London’s Shard and Dubai’s Burj Khalifa. Both of these skyscrapers are unique in their own way, yet similar. The Shard — currently the tallest building in the United Kingdom — dominates London skyline.

  • A Letter from China 21 July 2014
    A letter from China 21 July 2014 Interesting things to do with skyscrapers Much work has been done on Shanghai’s architecture during the 1920s & 30s. I refer interested readers to the beautifully illustrated work of Tess Johnston. Less has been written on the boom in skyscraper building that we have seen over the past 25 years. The vast creation of private wealth here, combined with a government willing and able to make grand architectural statements, has led to a sustained exuberance in the design of tall buildings. It all started here. This unlovely building, the Shanghai Union Friendship Tower, was the first skyscraper of the modern era, completed in 1985, just off the Bund. (The more imaginative building in the background with the leaf crown is the Bund Centre, built in 2002.) Before then, Lazlo Hudec’s Park Hotel, alongside Shanghai’s race Shanghai Union Friendship Tower track, had held the title of the city’s tallest building since its construction in 1934. It was from this vantage point that your correspondent watched President Reagan’s motorcade when he visited Shanghai in April 1984. That’s the Park Hotel to the left, its 22 floors now overborne by the 47-floor Radisson New World (2005), with its “the Martians have landed” motif. This is a late example of the revolving-restaurant fad. In the West, revolving restaurants were a thing of the 1960s and 1970s. But at that time China was busy with its own Cultural Park Hotel/Radisson New World Revolution. So the 1980s was China’s first chance to build something so cool.
