Cocobay Beach Luxury Hotel Is Located on the Prime Location Directly on the Beach Coco Bay Resort CASE STUDY Cocobay Resort DANANG, VIETNAM Cocobay Danang aims to be a leading entertainment and hospitality hub that can be ranked with other integrated resorts in Southeast Asia and other destinations of the world, including Las Vegas and Macao. Atkins provide masterplanning design services for the following components of the cocobay Development. Da Nang Vietnam Dragon Bridge Hoi An This graceful golden-hued bridge spouts fire and water Nearby Hoi An is Vietnam’s most atmospheric and from the dragon’s head near the Han River ’s eastern delightful historic town. It is populated with the great bank. The best places to observe are the various cafes architecture and charming riverside setting that lining the eastern bank to the north of the bridge, and benefits Vietanmese heritage. boat trips also depart from Ð Bach Dang on the river ’s western bank to make the most of Da Nang’s after dark, neon-lit splendour. Nowhere in Vietnam is a city undergoing change as fast as Da Nang. For decades it had a reputation as a developing province, but big changes are ongoing. Stroll along the Han riverfront and you’ll find gleaming new modern hotels, apartments and restaurants emerging. Spectacular new bridges now span the Han river, and in the north of the city landmark new D-City is rising from the flatlands. Venture south and the entire East Sea Beach strip is booming with hotel and resort developments. Danang also makes a great base for day trips. The city is part of a long thin peninsula, at the northern tip of which is Nui Son Tra. East Sea Beach and the five Marble Mountains lie southwest of the city. Cocobay The Coco Bay entertainment complex is envisioned as an exciting tourist hub with a mission of placing Vietnam on the world’s tourism map. With its strategic location and expansive views of lush green golf courses and endless stretch of beaches, the development will offer visitors one of Vietnam’s most vibrant experiences. There will be a series of attractions to draw tourists from Vietnam and overseas and a range of world class facilities for comfort and recreation. Masterplan 1. CocoBay Twin Towers 2. Dream City 3.

  • Dynamic Elasto-Plastic Analysis of a Super High-Rise Hybrid Structure
    th The 14 World Conference on Earthquake Engineering October 12-17, 2008, Beijing, China DYNAMIC ELASTO-PLASTIC ANALYSIS OF A SUPER HIGH-RISE HYBRID STRUCTURE JIANG Jun1 HAO Jiping1 HU Ming2 LI Kangning2 LI Yangcheng1 YOU Bing2 1 School of civil Engineering, Xi’an University of Architecture & Technology, Xi’an, China 2 LANTO Consulting Architects & Engineers Co.,Ltd ,Shenzhen ,China Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT : Dynamic elasto-plastic analysis methods can actually indicate the characteristic of structure, and it is considered as an accurate method. This paper is concerned with the seismic performance evaluation of a super high-rise hybrid structure on a background of project by using nonlinear dynamic procedure (NDP). By reasonable selection of input ground motions which include three natural earthquake records and a group of artificial waves, and based on some assumptions and considerations, the nonlinear dynamic analyses are carried out by using CANNY program. Then the seismic responses of hybrid structure under three different earthquake intensities are obtained. Comparing the responses of three levels with preestablished performance objective, the results show that all responses meet the requirements. At the same time, the inter-storey shear drifts are mentioned to judge the seismic behaviors of hybrid structure. Based on the large amount of structural response information, conclusion can be drawn that the super high-rise hybrid structure achieves the earthquake performance objective. KEYWORDS: hybrid structure, dynamic analysis, resorting force model, inter-storey drift 1. INTRODUCTION With the development of performance-based seismic design (PBSD), the more demands for performance of buildings need to be indicated by structural engineers.

  • Economics Planning of Super Tall Buildings in Asia Pacific Cities
    Economics Planning of Super Tall Buildings in Asia Pacific Cities Dr Paul H K HO, Hong Kong SAR, China Key words: economics planning, super tall building, Asia Pacific SUMMARY The purpose of this paper is to study the economics planning of super tall office buildings in Asia Pacific cities. This study is based on the case study of the Asia Pacific’s 10 tallest buildings which are distributed over six major cities. All are landmark buildings with similar functions. From the analysis of the collected data, the floor plate of these buildings is comparatively large, thus achieving a fairly high lettable to gross floor ratio of about 80% and low wall to floor area ratio of about 0.33. The most common lease span is approximately 12m with column-free between its service core and exterior window. The most common floor-to-floor height is about 4.0m. Square or similar plan is the most common geometry in super tall buildings since this geometry offers the same stiffness in both directions against lateral wind forces. Typically the building is in form of a large podium at lower levels with a setback in the overall floor plan dimension in the main tower and a slightly tapered shape at its top floors. The central core approach in which the core is designed as a structural element to provide stability is commonly used in super tall buildings. By using slip-form or jump-form techniques, a 3 to 4-day cycle is achievable for core wall construction which is similar to steel construction.

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.

In 1930, Clark and 1. The authors would like to thank all those Kingston (cited in Klaber, 1930) made the following observations The who provided data to make this research possible. skyscraper: A study in the economic height of modern office buildings: “Given the high land values in central business sections of our leading cities, the skyscraper is not only the most efficient, but the only economic utilization of certain strategic plots. An exhaustive investigation… has conclusively demonstrated that the factors making for diminishing returns in the intensive development of such plots are more than offset by the factors making for increasing returns…” (Klaber, 1930). This statement holds true for today; however, the relationship between cost and benefit is more complex in today’s global marketplace. The political ideology of the city plays an important role in the globalization process (Newman and Tornely, 2005; Abu-Ghazalah, 2007). The current trend for constructing office buildings is to build higher and higher, and developers tend to compete with one another on heights.

  • Vexed Foundations: an Ethnographic Interpretation of the Shenzhen Built Environment
    Mary Ann O’Donnell, Editor, Architectural Worlds, School of Architecture, Shenzhen University Email: [email protected] Presented at Vexed Urbanism: A Symposium on Design and the Social, The New School, New York, Feb 13-15, 2008. Vexed Foundations: An Ethnographic Interpretation of the Shenzhen Built Environment FORM OF THE QUESTION—INNER CITY VILLAGES (市中村) In this paper, I address an issue long dear to anthropological hearts—possible forms of cultural continuity despite and within rapidly changing societies. In doing so, I end up discussing the administrative structure of the Chinese state and the enabling conditions of imagining new forms of the Chinese nation. My study departs from the observation that despite the Chinese central government’s ideological, organizational, and architectural transformation of agrarian Baoan County into urban Shenzhen Municipality, villages have not only remained a viable feature of the urban landscape, but have also flourished in new ways, providing housing, employment, education, and medical care for their respective villagers. Indeed, the remarkable transformation of Shenzhen village lifeways has not diminished village-based cultural identities, but rather strengthened them. Such is the paradox of cultural continuity in Shenzhen. Even though materially little remains of agrarian Baoan, nevertheless, villages claim cultural histories of over four hundred years. Moreover, non-villagers explain village behavior in terms of this history. In other words, villagers not only claim unique, non-Shenzhen identities, but other Shenzhen inhabitants recognize the validity of this claim. In fact, the persistence of village identity constitutes a serious political challenge for Shenzhen officials, who view the villages as impediments to “normal (正常)” modernization.
