About Chongqing Gaoke Group Ltd Tùr Oifis

'S e tùr oifis a th' ann an Chongqing Gaoke Group Ltd a tha suidhichte ann an Chongqing, Sìona. Tha an togalach ag èirigh gu àirde de 201 meatair agus tha e air a mhìneachadh le aghaidh le lùbadh dùbailte. Tha an aghaidh a' ceangal nan taobhan tuath is ear bhon bhonn chun a' mhullaich, agus fhuair an cruth brosnachadh bhon fhir-chlis a' dannsa. Tha meudan dìreach-loidhneach air an suidheachadh ri taobh uachdaran an tùir le lùban dùbailte. Tha an ceàrn toinneimh as motha a' ruighinn 8.8 ceumannan gach làr. Chaidh glainne air a lùbadh gu fuar agus modaladh fiosrachaidh togalaich a chleachdadh gus an geoimeatraidh iom-fhillte fhuasgladh. Chaidh an tùr a chrìochnachadh ann an 2022.

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.
