    I think out of all of them frank Lloyd's building would be a game changer as not only his concept is now being used in all modern skyscrapers but the concept of following nature is sound and can actually work to create a strong and sturdy building and it would be a monument and testament to Lloyd's genius and creativity as his building looks entirely unique while most skyscrapers are beginning to all look the same much like most suvs these days.

      Little did Frank Lloyd Wright know, but he might have envisioned the first arcology. An arcology is a building or small compound with all the facilities of a typical town and produces at least most of its own food and power.

    I hope someday, we will see Lloyd's: Illinois skyscrapers, build with modern technology.
    This would mean, that we would see new sky race between New York and Chicago.

      I honestly wonder if this would have been feasible. A mile high building is almost double what we have now. The architecture and engineering of the Burj Khalifa is genius, but I’m not sure how much higher we can safely go. One mile is a lot in a building. That’s asking for trouble.

    • @georgen5882
      @georgen5882 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Honestly I don’t know. I guess if they engineer it similar to the Burj Khalifa, just in a larger scale, it “could” work. It honestly sounds like a disaster in the making. Like the top is going to get sheared off at one point due to wind and structural damage. Buildings are designed to withstand a certain amount of deflection, but at that height it might be too much. The Burj Khalifa is said to have about 3-6 feet of deflection at the top floors, and that building would be almost 1/3 the size of this one. The air here thinner the higher you go, so maybe it isn’t the main problem, but that’s some serious load to bear and distribute, wind sheer to account for. I don’t know man. This isn’t Star Wars.

    I've been to the highest point they allow you to go in the Burj Khalifa and it is a truly amazing building. Personally, every country trying to one-up each other, as far as tallest building goes, seems like a waste. There are plenty of other buildings in Dubai that are amazing and a fraction of the height of the Burj Khalifa. I am also someone who would never want to live in a skyscraper.

    The one in china is pretty easy to explain what happened.
    What happened is that the government ban ALL new skyscrapers throughout china without a lenghty government assessment. It was done because the government recognized that the cities were too dense with too much traffic, and skyscrapers were the culprits. So now they are encouraging outward expansion rather than upwards. As of 2023 the ban still holds so that building is most likely permanently halted even though the technology to build it in 90 days actually already exist and has been used a lot in china.
