Through a series of detailed case studies from East Asia, Arup, one
of the global leaders in tall building design, presents the latest
developments in the field to inspire more innovative and
sustainable ideas in tall building design and engineering. This
book exhibits the key design aspects of tall buildings in 20 case
studies, from China, Singapore, Hong Kong, Vietnam and Japan.
Chapters cover design and construction, safety concerns,
sustainability strategies, BIM and optimisation solutions, and
include contributions from the actual project engineers. The
projects chosen are not the tallest buildings, but all of them have
been selected for their significant engineering insights and
values. Arup's engineers explain the design principles, and how
they overcame various design constraints and challenges, while
exceeding their clients' expectations. Unique examples include: the
design and application of a hybrid outrigger system in the Raffles
City Chongqing project the challenges encountered in the
construction of the CCTV Headquarters, Beijing as well as Tianjin's
Goldin Finance 117 Tower, Ho Chi Minh City's Vincom Landmark 81,
the China Resources Headquarters, Ping An IFC, Tokyo's Nicolas G
Hayek Center and the Shanghai World Financial Centre. These varied
and complex cases studies draw on multi-disciplinary design and
engineering challenges which make this book essential reading for
architects, structural engineers, project managers and researchers
of high-rise buildings. The book also provides a usual reference
and link between practitioners in the industry, academia and
engineering students.
