The exoskeleton is mede up of two legs on both sides of the building starting from the ground level to 273 metres and connected to the front legs.
Sky Restaurant Structure
The 350 ton structural steel sky Restaurant was one of the most complex and potentially dangerous structures to erect. The box girders cantileve out for about 30m from the main core wall of the building connected to about 200 tons of embedment. The
restaurant is having a floor size of 70m x 25m. The total structure is built up on eight cantilevered box sections and two end trusses at 200m above the ground level. The beauty of the restaurant is that it over looks the sea. One of the highlights is, two 30m long girders had to be erected at 200m level but the crane did not have the lifting capacity so we had to split the girders into halves and joint up in the air with full penetration welding, it was a real challenge and Eversendai took it up and performed beyond everyone’s expectation in a record duration of 40 days.
