The popular statement - size doesn't matter - certainly does not apply to the height of buildings. Man has not abandoned attempts to get to heaven since biblical times - starting with the construction of the Tower of Babel. The tallest buildings in the world amaze with their grandeur and technical novelty, we invite you to learn more about each of them. We will talk specifically about skyscrapers, this list will not include towers, which will be a separate story
But until the 19th century, increasing the height of buildings meant thickening the walls, which had to support the weight of the structure. The creation of elevators and metal frames for walls freed the hands of architects and engineers, allowing them to design and build taller and taller buildings with more floors. So, the 10 tallest buildings in the world:
№10 Empire State Building, New York, USA
The Empire State Building is America's most famous skyscraper; the Chrysler Building is one of the last skyscrapers built in the Art Deco style; Rockefeller Center is the world's largest private business and entertainment complex, comprising 19 buildings. The observation deck of the center offers stunning panoramic views of Central Park and the Empire State Building.
During the construction of the building, new technologies in building structures were developed, such as the J. Bogardus cast iron frame metal structure, the E. G. Otis passenger elevator. The skyscraper consists of a foundation, a steel frame of columns and beams above the ground, and curtain walls attached to the beams. In this skyscraper, the main load is carried by the steel frame, not the walls. He transfers this load directly to the foundation. Thanks to this innovation, the weight of the building has significantly decreased and amounted to 365 thousand tons. 5662 cubic meters of limestone and granite were used for the construction of the outer walls. In total, the builders used 60 thousand tons of steel structures, 10 million bricks and 700 kilometers of cable. The building has 6500 windows.
The International Finance Center is a complex commercial building located on the waterfront of Hong Kong's Central District. A significant landmark of Hong Kong Island, it consists of two skyscrapers: the International Financial Center shopping gallery and the 40-story Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong. Tower 2 is the tallest building in Hong Kong, having usurped the space once occupied by Central Plaza. The complex was built with the support of Sun Hung Kai Properties and MTR Corp. The Hong Kong Airport Express Station is located directly below it. The construction of the first international financial center was completed in 1998, and the opening took place in 1999. The building has 38 floors, 18 high-speed passenger elevators in four zones, its height is 210 m, the total area is 72,850 m. Now the building can accommodate approximately 5,000 people.
№6 Jin Mao Tower, Shanghai, China
The total height of the structure is 421 meters, the number of floors reaches 88 (93 together with the belvedere). The distance from the ground to the roof is 370 meters, and the top floor is at a height of 366 meters! Perhaps, compared to the Emirati (still unfinished) giant Burj Dubai, Jin Mao will seem like a dwarf, but against the background of other buildings in Shanghai, this giant looks impressive. By the way, not far from the Golden Building of Success there is also a skyscraper - the Shanghai World Financial Center (SWFC), which surpassed Jin Mao in height and became the tallest office building in China in 2007. Currently, a 128-story skyscraper is planned to be erected next to Jin Mao and SHVFC, which will become the tallest building in China.
The hotel is famous for being one of the tallest in the world, it is located on the top floors of a skyscraper, which, in turn, is currently the tallest in Shanghai
From the 54th to the 88th floor there is the Hyatt hotel, this is its atrium.
On the 88th floor, at an altitude of 340 meters above the ground, there is an indoor observation deck Skywalk, which can accommodate more than 1000 people at a time. Skywalk area - 1520 sq.m.

№5 Fifth place in the list of tallest buildings is "Sears Tower", Chicago, USA
The Sears Tower is a skyscraper located in Chicago, USA. The height of the skyscraper is 443.2 meters, the number of floors is 110. Construction began in August 1970, completed on May 4, 1973. Chief architect Bruce Graham, chief designer Fazlur Khan.
The Sears Tower was built over 30 years ago. In 1974, the skyscraper became the tallest building in the world, surpassing the World Trade Center in New York by 25 meters. For more than two decades, the Sears Tower held the lead and only in 1997 gave way to the Kuala Lumpur "twins" - the Petronas Towers.
Today, the Sears Tower is undoubtedly one of the most magnificent buildings in the world. Until now, this building remains the tallest skyscraper in the United States.
The cost of the Sears tower, 443 meters high, was 150 million dollars - at that time it was quite an impressive amount. Today, the equivalent cost would be almost $1 billion.
The main building material that went into the construction of the Sears Tower was steel.
You do not need to be an expert in physics and seismology to understand that a structure with a height of 509.2 meters is at very high risk during an earthquake. That is why Asian engineers at one time decided to secure one of the architectural gems of Taiwan in a rather original way - with the help of a giant ball or stabilizer ball.
The $4 million project, which involves installing a giant 728-tonne ball on top of the skyscraper, has proven to be one of the most exciting engineering experiments of recent times. Suspended on thick cables, the ball plays the role of a stabilizer that allows you to "dampen" the vibrations of the building structure during an earthquake.
№1 Burj Dubai, Dubai, UAE
The tower is equipped with 56 elevators (by the way, the fastest in the world), boutiques, swimming pools, luxury apartments, hotels and observation decks. A distinctive feature of the construction is the international composition of the working team: a South Korean contractor, American architects, Indian builders. Four thousand people took part in the construction.
Records set by the construction of Burj Dubai:
* building with nai large quantity floors - 160 (the previous record was 110 for the Sears Tower skyscrapers and the destroyed twin towers);
* tallest building - 611.3 m (previous record - 508 m at the Taipei 101 skyscraper);
* the highest free-standing structure - 611.3 m (previous record - 553.3 m at the CN Tower);
* the highest concrete injection height for buildings - 601.0 m (the previous record was 449.2 m at the Taipei 101 skyscraper);
* the highest concrete injection height for any structure - 601.0 m (the previous record was 532 m at the Riva del Garda hydroelectric power station);
* in 2008, the height of the Burj Dubai exceeded the height of the Warsaw radio tower (646 m), the building became the tallest ground structure in the history of human construction.
* On January 17, 2009, Burj Dubai reached its declared height of 818 m, and became the tallest building in the world.
