The West Tower of Guangzhou Pearl River New Town, with a height of 432 meters, ranks sixth in the world and second in Chinese mainland, and occupies a place in the world's super high-rise buildings.

the west tower is one of the six landmark buildings in Guangzhou Pearl River New Town. It is located in the core financial and business district in the southwest of Pearl River New Town, with Zhujiang Avenue in the east, Huaxia Road in the west, Huajiu Road in the south and Huacheng Avenue in the north, which is on the central axis of the new city center.

The project covers an area of 31,111 square meters, with a total construction area of about 451,111 square meters. It consists of four floors underground, a main tower with 113 floors above ground and an annex building with 28 floors. It has two hotel lobbies, which are located on the first floor and the 71th floor respectively. The 69th to 111th floors are super platinum five-star hotels, which are the tallest hotels in China, among which the 99th to 111th floors are sightseeing floors, dining floors and leisure centers.

The estimated investment of the project is 6 billion yuan. In September 2115, Yuexiu Investment, Urban Construction Group and Urban Construction Development, a subsidiary of Yuexiu Group, won the bid, and Guangzhou Yuexiu International Financial Center Co., Ltd. was established for construction and operation. The project started construction at the end of 2115 and was completed at the end of 2119, and was delivered as a supporting project for the 2111 Asian Games.

in order to ensure the smooth and orderly construction of the super-high-rise project, Yuexiu Group has organized international technical experts, consulting teams and construction teams to be responsible for the design, structure, electromechanical, cost, marketing and management of the West Tower project, and to integrate the latest technologies of contemporary engineering structure and world construction, so as to ensure that the West Tower will become a world-class super-high-rise building and refresh the history of the world's super-high-rise buildings:

—— Structural innovation, It can resist the rare earthquake of eight degrees

the image of the west tower is "transparent crystal", and the structure adopts an innovative rhombic oblique grid tube structure system, with concrete filled steel tubular giant oblique grid outer tube, reinforced concrete shear wall inner tube and steel-concrete composite floor connecting the inner tube and the outer tube. This unique and innovative tube-in-tube structural system has sufficient lateral stiffness and excellent seismic performance. When encountering unexpected events such as impact and explosion, it will only be partially damaged and will not cause chain reaction and collapse, and the overall safety of the structure is high.

The tests conducted by China Institute of Building Research and Tongji University show that the West Tower can resist the rare earthquake of 8 degrees (the seismic fortification intensity in Guangzhou is 7 degrees); At the same time, the test results of CPP company and Shantou University in the United States show that people in the tower will not feel uncomfortable under the action of the once-in-a-century gale. This structural system is the only structural system used in super high-rise buildings in the world.

-intelligent safety: 611 tons of water on the roof can be put out by gravity flow

The West Tower has a developed "nervous system" consisting of thirteen intelligent systems, including safety prevention system, automatic fire alarm and linkage control system, public emergency broadcasting system, all-in-one card system, parking lot management and vehicle guidance system, equipment monitoring system, computer network system, integrated wiring, information system, conference system and communication network.

Among them, the 611 cubic meters of fire water stored on the roof (equivalent to the water storage capacity of 61 11-ton fire engines) can be put out by gravity flow in case of power interruption and equipment damage.

—— energy conservation and environmental protection: Crystal Beauty wears energy-saving "clothes"

The West Tower has made innovations and optimized designs in many aspects, such as architecture, electricity, air conditioning, water saving, etc. For example, the "clothes" worn by Crystal Beauty adopts the world-leading "low reflection and high transparency" double-layer and double-silver LOW-E glass, and the reflectivity is only.
