Burj Dubai Construction Detail

World’s tallest building, Burj Dubai is being constructed by the famous and well-known South Korean Company Samsung Engineering. This South Korean Company had made many famous and antique buildings and towers like Petromas Twin towers and The Taipei 101. The Samsung Engineering & Constructions is building the Burj Dubai in a join Venture with two companies, one is a Belgium Company Besix and another is Arabtec from UAE. The project manager of the main construction contract is Turner. The Reinforced is the primary structural system of Burj Dubai. They used more than 110,000 tones weighing reinforced concrete, which is over 45,000 m3 it means more than 58,900 cu yd to construct the concrete and steel foundation. This concrete and steel foundation has 192 piles buried more than 164 ft deep.

After the Burj Dubai would complete there are use of steel more than 39,000 tones and the use of concrete will touch the quantity of 330,000 m3. It is such an unbelievable thing. If this steel will lie on whole earth end-to-end then it can cover a quarter of the way. This construction will have taken about 22 million man hours.

As construction of the tower progresses, it is becomes more and more difficult for the vertical concrete pumps to pull the concrete at the head of the tower. This work had broke all the records to pump the concrete vertically and made a world wide new record.

During the extension of the Riva del Garda Hydroelectric Power Plant in Italy had the record for pumping concrete at the height of 1,745 ft in 1994. But now Burj Dubai has achieved this record as the date of 19th August 2008, as it has pumped concrete to 1,759 ft. On 8th November 2008 Burj Dubai will broke its own record and register a new record to pump the concrete at the 1,972 ft. According to our data, Burj Dubai had achieved a height of 2,320 ft on 26th September, 2008.When the world’s tallest skyscraper would build, and it will have more than 160 floors with about 56 elevators. There are also apartments, shops, corporate suits, offices and swimming pools. The Burj Dubai would be the only skyscraper which has the most floors. This man-made skyscraper has set the record of highest vertical concrete pumping of about 1972 ft, before this project the record of highest vertical concrete pumping was named on Riva del Garda Hydroelectric Power Plant which was 1,745 ft.

Burj Dubai World Tallest Building Quality

During the construction, engineers and other responsible persons are taking all required quality tests, because one small mistake can make dangerous result. The head of Concrete Quality Checking has checked each batch of concrete and test it to see resist certain pressure. As the Gulf Temperature is as high as about 50 °C it is very hard to withstand the thousands of tones pressure. To solve this problem they poured the concrete at night instead of Day so the temperature is low than day. Additionally they ice to mixture the concrete to cool down the temperature. The other reason is that cooler concrete mixture is less likely to set too quickly and crack. One small crack could put the Burj Dubai project in Danger.

Dubai is known for its amazing and unique real- estate projects. Burj Al Arab, world’s tallest and Costliest seven Star Hotel. World’s tallest Building The Burj Dubai is under construction and will finish in September 2009. Emirates Towers, Palm Island are also a proof of Dubai’s ambitious real- estate projects. And now Dubai ready for another innovative skyscraper project. It is a new incredible project of Rotating Tower.

How Rotating Building in DUBAI?

Dubai’s “Rotating Tower in Motion” building is concept by architect David Fisher. This building is based on dynamic Architecture. Keeping in mind the weight of the wings, are made from Carbon fibers. The Building will change its shape constantly. Each floor of this skyscraper can change its position; it can move, and rotate 360 degrees independently. One floor is rotating completely and then also it is not affecting the other floors of the Building.

In the middle of this skyscraper there is concrete core, which is surrounded by about 59 independently rotating levels. There are about 48 wind turbines fitted between each floor to rotate the floor smoothly. On the roof of this building solar panels are placed to generate pollution free energy. The speed of the rotation is as slow as about 6 meters/ min, so that people inside probably won’t feel the Rotation.

In the history of the skyscrapers it will be the first to build with industrial system process where more than 85% of the building materials will be produced and constructed as modules in an industrial factory which is set up in Jebel Ali, Dubai. All the modules will be assembled mechanically. After completing the parts it will be sent to the construction site and then assembled in that middle Core. The Staircases, Elevators, Plumbing and other related utilities will be build on construction site. These key facilities will build using traditional techniques. All the floors, which are made from the factory, are completely finished and self contained with electrical, plumbing as well as air-conditioning systems ready for use. This factory will make one floor in every three days.
