Building safe, energy-efficient high-rise structures
Rapid urban population growth and the attempt to curb urban sprawl are pushing policymakers and decision-makers to become increasingly interested in vertical urbanism. Architects, structural engineers, and the various other stakeholders involved in the creation of high-rise structures are constantly striving to develop energy-efficient, sustainable designs without compromising on aesthetics and functionality. Energy conservation is an evolutionary process, and design priorities for tall and supertall buildings have recently shifted to achieving more energy efficiency to address the energy needs of the increasing global population.
Reimagining high-rise architecture
“As high-rise architecture continues to evolve, architects have the opportunity to push the boundaries of what these buildings can offer. Through innovative design that thoughtfully layers function and integrates form, high rises can redefine how we experience urban life, creating environments as dynamic and complex as the cities they inhabit.”
