This building is the Shanghai Tower, covering an area of 433,954 square meters, and the building height is as high as 1 19 meters, while the general buildings in our country are more than 30 stories, but this building is as high as 932 meters. Construction of this building began in 2008, and it was completed in 20 16, which lasted eight years, and was officially opened to the public in 20 17.
At the beginning, this architectural design also took a lot of thought. At the beginning, two American companies, a British company and many design companies in Shanghai came to bid for the design of this building. In the end, an American company and a British company won the bid. But finally decided to use American Airlines? Dragon type? Scheme. The building is divided into nine areas, each with its own air hall and atrium. At the time of allocation, it was the 6 th district, the office area below, and the 7 th to 9 th districts were hotels and observation decks.
If you carefully observe this building, you will find that its appearance is not simple. It is spiral and slows down the airflow, so that it can stand the test of typhoon. Even so, it is reported that the building will sway when it is windy, and the amplitude is more than 1 meter, which is very terrible. Many people are yelling at the people inside. Don't you panic? Fortunately, Shanghai is not in the earthquake zone, otherwise the consequences would be really unimaginable.
106 elevators are installed in this building, which can directly reach the sightseeing platform on the 1 19 floor, and these elevators are very fast. It is reported that the elevator can reach 18 meters per second, and it only takes 55 seconds to reach the 1 19 floor. There are three such speeding sightseeing elevators in this building. Where is this elevator? Like a rocket. It's so fast that if you meet a person who is afraid of heights, you may be stunned in minutes.
Now this building has become one of the top ten landmark buildings in Shanghai. Many people who travel to Shanghai will come here to take photos with this building and feel the scenery at the top of the mountain. Of course, there are also some rock climbers and adventure enthusiasts who come here to challenge. There have been two such incidents. Vadim makhorov and Vitaly Laskarov once again challenged the restricted area. They not only escaped the security check and climbed over the wall to enter the construction site of Shanghai Tower, but also did not stop until they reached the top floor. They climbed the tower crane on the roof without a safety rope and filmed Shanghai in the smog.
