Soaring 828 meters above the metropolis of Dubai, the Burj Khalifa is the world’s tallest building. The design for the 162-story tower combines local cultural influences with cutting-edge technology to achieve high performance in an extreme desert climate. The centerpiece of a large mixed-use development, the Burj Khalifa contains offices, retail space, residential units, and a Giorgio Armani hotel. A Y-shaped floor plan maximizes views of the Arabian Gulf. At ground level, the skyscraper is surrounded by green space, water features, and pedestrian-friendly boulevards. The tower’s overall design was inspired by the geometries of a regional desert flower and the patterning systems embodied in Islamic architecture.

BURJ AL ARAB Omar Cantu. “Burj al Arab.” Architecture, Aug 2000 Talarico. Burj khalifa my first work using revit architecture. It is not true to scale and its drawn out of dimension, but I tried to be as accurate.

Built of reinforced concrete and clad in glass, the tower is composed of sculpted volumes arranged around a central buttressed core. As the tower rises from a flat base, setbacks occur in an upward spiraling pattern, reducing the building’s mass as it reaches skyward. At the pinnacle, the central core emerges and forms a spire.

Beyond its record-breaking height, the Burj Khalifa incorporates new structural and construction efficiencies to reduce material usage and waste. These include a “sky-sourced” ventilation system, in which cool, less humid air is drawn in through the top of the building. In Search Of Lost Divine Ark Rar. The tower also has one of the largest condensate recovery systems in the world.

Abstract The Burj Khalifa Project is the tallest structure ever built by man; the tower is 828 meters tall and compromise of 162 floors above grade and 3 basement levels. Early integration of aerodynamic shaping and wind engineering played a major role in the architectural massing and design of this multi-use tower, where mitigating and taming the dynamic wind effects was one of the most important design criteria set forth at the onset of the project design.
