Structural Design of Stainless Steel Louver Support at High-Rise Levels

Introduction At Level 71 of The Landmark Tower in Abu Dhabi, the stainless-steel louver system demanded precise engineering to perform safely at extreme wind pressures. Aluminium & Light Industries Co. (Alico) carried out detailed structural calculations to verify framing adequacy, connection strength, and overall serviceability under critical load combinations Design Criteria and Standards Design Objective […]

Tower Crane Lateral Support: How We Design, Check, and Install Safe Tie-ins on High-Rise Sites

Why lateral supports (tie-ins) matter A free-standing tower crane quickly reaches its stability limit as height and wind exposure increase. At set building levels, we brace the mast back to the permanent structure via engineered tie-ins so overturning and sway are controlled under storm wind and out-of-service conditions. The project document shows tie-in levels at […]
