Are you interested in learning about the future of tall buildings?
This year, on 29th of January, Zaha Hadid Architects in conjunction with CTBUH UK Chapter and ABB organized an event called “Geometry of Tall Buildings”. In this event engineers and architects presented and discussed the design and geometry of tall buildings of the future. The discussions explored the increasing requirements of integration of engineering and architecture in super-tall towers.
The main topics were:
- What are the main drivers in designing tall towers’ geometry?
- Are aerodynamic form and geometry more appropriate to increasingly tall buildings?
- How are architectural and structural design responding to requirements for efficiency, wind loads, core position, and vertical transportation in always-higher towers?
- How can collaborations between different disciplines improve towers’ overall performance and sustainability?
- How can new digital tools and latest technologies contribute to the success of a tall building?
