For registration, please fill in registration form in the following link: https://goo.gl/forms/9sTygY1KLVPPo5JD3 The deadline for application is on 7 April 2019. Successful applicants will be notified by email on or before 8 April 2019. Attendance : 1 hour CPD certificate will be provided. Enquiry : For enquiry, please contact Mr Michael Sung at 9869 7281 or email at [email protected]. Venue Sponsor : Cocktail Sponsor : Supporting Organizations: Topic 1 – Vertical Cities and Urban Habitat Speaker : Mr. John Jacobs (Chief Operating Officer, CTBUH) John Jacobs is the Chief Operating Officer of CTBUH with headquarters based in Chicago. Prior to joining CTBUH, John was SVP of Yankee Group Research in Boston and Executive of TIA. Topic 2 – Supertall Building Design Challenges Speaker : Mr. Robert Whitlock (Design Principal, KPF) Robert Whitlock has 40 years experience in architecture design, and is a Design Principal at Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, whose focus on the design of high- rise towers, mixed-use developments, and large-scale master plans has been as much about enhancing the urban experience as about shaping individual buildings. Since beginning professional practice, Whitlock has focused on density, public space, programmatic integration, supertall building, and the influences of these elements on the quality and sustainability of the “global city.” Most recently, Whitlock designed the 528-meter tall CITIC Tower (or China Zun 中國尊), the tallest building in Beijing. Inspired by the form of a traditional Chinese ritualistic artifact – the “zun” – CITIC Tower is a new icon of the capital city, with transit connections and an observation deck that brings the public into the space. The CITIC Tower will be in full operation this year. Topic 3 – High Performance Structural Engineering Speaker : Mr. Dennis Poon (Vice Chairman, Thornton Tomasetti) Dennis Poon has more than 40 years of experience in the structural engineering of a wide variety of building types, such as supertall structures, mixed-use buildings, hotels, airports, arenas and residential buildings worldwide. His expertise is in the application of state-of the-art engineering technologies for building analysis, design and construction, including project delivery strategies. Dennis also has extensive experience in seismic design, structural investigations and optimization of structural systems. High on his list of accomplishments is the role he played in leading the structural design teams for China’s tallest buildings : Suzhou Zhongnan Center (729 m), Shanghai Tower (632 m), Ping An International finance Center (600 m), Wuhan Greenland Center (480 m), and Chengdu Greenland Tower (468 m)..

A four-sided, pyramidal shape interacts gracefully with an eight-sided geometry at the base. The mixed program, complex geometry, and high seismic and wind conditions of the region demand a sophisticated design response, particularly in terms of the façade Alejandro Stochetti Marc Cerone and the structural engineering, in order to achieve a coherent, crystalline form.

China has become one of the centers of supertall buildings in the world. Supertall buildings in China are getting taller, more slender, and more complex. The structural design of these buildings focuses on the efficiency of lateral resisting systems and the application of energy dissipation. Furthermore, the research, design, and construction of high- performance materials, pile foundations, and mega-members have made a lot of progress.
