Integrating sustainable design and construction methods with commercial acumen and efficient management to achieve greater returns on investment and create successful Tall Buildings.
Tall buildings have always been symbolic of a city s economic and financial strength. Despite the economic woes that have plagued the world recently, tall building construction has proceeded at an unprecedented pace. According to the Council of Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, 2010 will see over 100 buildings 200m or taller completed, with over half of these in the Asia Pacific and 30% in China alone. However with the construction of so many tall buildings, there has been an increased scrutiny on their commercial and financial viability, not to mention the sustainability aspect in their construction. It has become increasingly important for architects, engineers and developers to create thriving communities within the Tall Building environment that incorporates the best in technological advances, engineering skill and commercial know-how in order to ensure that these massive skyscrapers are sustainable both to the environment and to the people who live in them. Covering the entire life cycle of a tall building from its design and construction to its finance and operations, the 4
th 4th Annual Tall Buildings 2010 conference aims to expound on the commercial aspects of tall buildings whilst retaining its strength in focusing on selected case studies featuring the latest in design and engineering these mega-structures of the future. Join this conference to discover the key challenges and solutions to help prepare Tall Building professionals to succeed and gain an edge in this highly competitive market.
