Overview
More than a tower –
a global icon
Scope of Work: Design, supply, manufacture and installation of unitised curtain walling and structural glass assemblies.
The Burj Khalifa is a supertall, multi-purpose skyscraper delivered in record time by a joint venture between Samsung, BESIX, and Arabtec, under the patronage of Emaar Properties. Spanning 479,830 sqm, it houses hotel, residential, commercial, retail, entertainment, observatory, communication, and parking facilities.
The podium serves as a grounded base for the tower, offering grade-level access from three sides to different building levels. Fully glazed entry pavilions, featuring suspended cable-net structures, provide dedicated entrances: Corporate Suites at the B1 and Concourse levels, Burj Khalifa Residences at the Ground level, and the Armani Hotel at the Podium level.
