RESEARCH CONTINUATION...ARCHITECTURE

The new skyscraper called Sinosteel International Plaza will be build in China in city of Tianjin. This building is still under construction and it should be completed in 2012. The architecture form of this skyscraper is inspired by the form of honey bee hives.
“Outside the framework of this building will form hexagonal, such as the form contained in the honey bee hive. Because it is so sturdy honeycomb design, then only by using the order outside of these buildings are actually sturdy enough to handle the weight of the building. So this building will not require too much building reinforcing pillars that must be installed in the middle of building construction such as tall buildings on the other.”
