About Chongqing Gaoke Group Ltd Bulego Dorrea

Chongqing Gaoke Group Ltd Chongqing hirian (Txina) kokatutako bulego dorre bat da. Eraikinak 201 metroko altuera du eta kurbadura bikoitzeko fatxada batek definitzen du. Fatxadak iparraldeko eta ekialdeko aldeak lotzen ditu behetik goraino, eta forma dantzan ari den aurora borealean inspiratu zen. Bolumen zuzenak kurba bikoitzeko dorre-gainazalen alboan kokatzen dira. Bihurdura-angelu maximoak 8,8 gradu lortzen ditu solairuko. Hotzean tolestutako beira eta eraikinaren informazio-modelizazioa erabili ziren geometria konplexua ebazteko. Dorrea 2022an amaitu zen.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties
This 201M high office tower has the strong feature of Double-Curved Façade, which put it among one of “The Most Twisting Towers in the World”.
Dimensions & Packaging
To achieve a very smooth transition of the glass façade, the design uses double-curved cold form glass instead of the usual or more common faceted method. The maximum twisting angle is up to 8.8 degrees per floor surpassing the existing super high-rise tower in the world by nearly 1.5 times (CTBUH Journal, 2016 Issue 3). The system of cold bend glass on the 3D frame façade component enables a maximum of 86mm in glass deviation between floors, realizing a record-breaking design in China.

Production Technology
The unique twisting results in a high double-curvature ratio, which poses a major challenge for the overall façade system. The team and RFR joint hands to leverage the cold bend glass technique and BIM on complex geometry façade for a magic solution. From overall geometry analysis, façade component modelling & clash-checking, LOD400 detail component modelling, automotive data exporting and auditing, 3D BIM has been utilized throughout the entire façade design process.
Inspiration
Inspired by the dancing aurora, the designer introduced an impressive façade design through bottom-to-top connections between northern and eastern sides. The ‘dance of light’ is characterized by the juxtaposition of rectilinear forms and tower façades with double curves.
