High-rise construction rapidly developing around the world has predictably shifted from infill development to design and implementation of entire cities consisting of skyscrapers only. An integrated approach to the development of large areas allows implementing the most daring architects’ ideas who effectively integrate modern technology into their projects and use the most advanced achievements of science and technology. With the increasing construction scale, specialists are faced with more complex and interesting tasks that inspire them to more risky and ambitious solutions.
In recent years, city-planning policies of large metropolitan cities have been marked by a trend towards building mixed-use high-rise quarters. New social and business centers provide economic stability and an inflow of necessary investment to entire cities and even countries. This is particularly evident in the rapidly developing regions seeking to create not only cheap office buildings or standard residential houses, but also spaces pleasant for work and living.
The established trend towards continuous optimization of all architectural and structural solutions as well as construction cost cutting reduce expenses and minimize efforts associated with high-rise construction around the world. Therefore, when an entire complex or a district consisting of skyscrapers is developed, it is possible to work out urban infrastructure for all buildings in a certain territory at once instead of laying utility systems to each building separately. First of all, it provides an opportunity to create a unified efficient transport system, thus significantly increasing the speed of transportation between objects and making the project more attractive from a commercial point of view.
