Hangzhou Wangchao Center

2021-10-23T15:58:32.280Z

Hangzhou Wangchao Center
Architect: SOM
Location: Wangchao - Hangzhou - China

The tower's expressive silhouette is the result of an integrated architectural and engineering solution. An efficient structural system minimizes wind loads while creating highly flexible floor plates that accommodate the office and hotel program requirements. A central concrete core and sloping perimeter columns support composite steel floor framing and truss deck slabs. Eight corners mega-columns slope outward to open up large, flexible floor plates. As the corner columns move further apart, secondary perimeter columns branch out to maintain equal column bays. Above the lobby, a Vierendeel transfer truss transfers the secondary columns to the corner columns, creating an open lobby space below.
At the tower's crown, the primary corner columns extend upward to a truss at the top level. The crown consists of hangers and spandrels braced back to the central concrete core with a series of struts. These work in tandem to support MEP equipment, along with concealed building maintenance systems.

Twisted Tower

2021-10-18T12:37:17.646Z

A combination of using a basic computational design technic to create a twisted tower based on a polygon shape plan “here: three segments” with a simple GHPython script to create the structure.
Knowing, although the definition could be modified at any time to achieve a certain result, the structural elements will keep their same relationship with each other in any circumstance.

The foldable skyscraper

2021-10-18T12:17:33.944Z

The foldable skyscraper “collapsable skyscraper” designed by Damian Granosik, Jakub Kulisa, and Piotr Pańczyk came first place in the annual eVolo skyscraper competition. - The flattened structure is designed to be packed into a box only as wide as the building's base, so it can be suspended under military helicopters. This would help aid workers access remote locations that trucks might not be able to reach if roads become impassable. - Inside, the team imagined the skyscraper could host a reception area, first aid bays, temporary housing, safe and dry storage space, and even a "vertical farm that uses soil gathered during anchoring".

Albaher Towers

2021-10-18T12:14:57.816Z

Albaher Towers
Architect: Aedas Architects
Location: Al Manhal - Abu Dhabi - United Arab Emirates
Project Concept
The project concept is inspired by the traditional Islamic object the “Mashrabiya” and motifs to stand out with two circular towers covered by a honeycomb-inspired structure and its automated dynamic solar screen. The “Mashrabiya” is a wooden lattice screen found in traditional Islamic architecture and used as a device for achieving privacy and environmental control including natural ventilation, solar control, and glare reduction. The project area is 56,000 square meters primarily for office use (Bank). The design submitted by architect Abulmajid Karanouh (Aedas) offers two 150-meter-high circular towers clad with a curtain wall covered with a kinetic shading system. The tower floor is open plan office spaces with a service core. On some floors, the space is divided into cellular offices and meeting rooms. Each tower has a two-level basement with 24-story office space that includes catering, auditoria, prayer rooms, gymnasium, and plant rooms. There is a basement for car parking and secure vaults for banking services. Following an international design competition, the client chose the striking concept submitted by a UK-based multidisciplinary design team (Aedas/Arup). There is an entrance podium for both towers covered with a 100-m curved roof. The buildings are fully air-conditioned with various back areas associated with storage and catering.
