The<br \/>\ncompany BSB (Broad Sustainable Building) which was also involved in<br \/>\nbuilding a 30 storeys tall hotel in only 15 days, plans to raise the planned&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->&#8230;tower in only 90 days at a total height of 838 metres. This is a very ambiguous goal to reach but as they&#8217;ve provven with the 30-storeys-hotel, it seems feasible.<\/p>\n<p>I still wonder, how many people will have to work 24\/7 on that building as on Burj Khalifa there were already 10.000 workers involved and the tower had a buildup time of almost 6(!) years!<\/p>\n<p>BSB still claims that the building will comply to any safety standards regarding earthquake stability and also comply to a various number of ecological aspects and regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Yet the problem of the micro climate which is a side effect of the 838 metres vertical ascension is one to solve.<\/p>\n<p>Also there are no costs mentionned, the building will cost.
