China plans on building the world’s tallest skyscraper in just 90 days
Building a really tall skyscraper, if you’re really hauling ass, would take you about a year. That’s if you’re really pushing it, but most super tall skyscrapers like the Burj Khalifa or Tapei 101 take several years or more to complete. One Chinese company is confident that it can build the world’s tallest building, called Sky City One, in an unbelievable 90 days.
It seems unthinkable that a skyscraper, let alone one that will be the world’s tallest (the Burj Khalifa is only 828-meters tall) can be constructed in 90 days, but that isn’t stopping Broad Sustainable Building (BSB) from gunning for the record. To compare, the Burj Khalifa took five years to construct.
If the name BSB rings a bell, that’s because was the same company behind the construction of the 30-story hotel in 15 days from earlier this year.
Sure, the Sky City will be pre-built in a factory prior to its erection, but to piece it all together in 90 days will still be a technological triumph for humanity.
