PROJECT PECULIARITIES
We were invited to the project by the general contractor - Leighton Contracting from Australia. The project by that time had lasted for some time. However, the customer was not satisfied with the terms, the quality and the fact that some of the technical issues are not resolved in time. Our design team quickly came up to speed, and solved all of the most critical tasks (related with the end of the design, manufacture and installation of unitized facade of the main building).

Project peculiarities
The height of the building is about 250m. One of the most "twisted" buildings in the world: each slab is turned to the previous one by 3 degree, the overall vertical axis rotation of the tower - 150 degrees.
Almost unprecedented form of the building, complex deformation model of reinforced concrete structure, as well as accepted by the Client in the course of design project decision to use cold-bent (cold deformed) glass for the building demanded great efforts from everyone involved. Applying cold-deformed glass (35 000 m2 – it is also had no analogues in the world).
Building maintenance system
Unique geometry of the building required the development of special techniques and equipment for the building maintenance units – BMU (around 12m of work platform "pulling-in").
