Constructing a Super-Tall Building
Very few contractors have the opportunity to build a super-tall building (defined by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat as being taller than 300 meters or 984 feet tall). But we are all fascinated by the process and many you would love to get into a construction “skip hoist” attached to the side of the building, ride to the top and see how the magic happens. Concrete as a material dominates the super-tall market now and we in the industry can feel proud of this amazing building technology and what can be achieved.
By pressing a button R&S certified staff move the core forms, temporary steps, the placing boom, and a 6-ton crane 16-feet upward to start construction at the next level:

Specification Limits on Slab-on-Grade Placement Size
American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC)
ACI 302 has stated since 1980 that a limited placement size concept has not achieved any better shrinkage results, is more expensive, and adds time to the schedule.
Construction schedules and contractor economics typically require concrete placements of 10,000 to 20,000 square feet or from 30,000 to 50,000 square feet when a Laser Screed is used. This figure shows a 300,000 square foot pour that was completed within 24 hours in a single concrete placement.
