Conclusion

As conclusion, skyscraper give a lot of benefit for some country for symbol of prosperities and be
tourism that can increase the economics of the country. In other side, skyscraper will cause many
problems to the environment during construction and after it was built. So we must take emphasize a
very high safety factor in order to prevent the undesirable thing to be happen in the future. As example,
Taipei 101 is the most beautiful skyscraper with the design aspirated from a mix of traditional Chinese
icons, bamboo for strength and pagoda for serenity where it is built on Taiwan's land that is often
attacked by earthquakes and typhoon. But during the construction, the responsible engineer was
thinking about the solution to the problems encountered during the construction. They have decided to
combine two revolutionary systems: a brace mega frame join to 8 supercolumns filled with the mixture
of steel and concrete and a Tuned Mass Damper, a giant pendulum weight of 10 000 people design to
oppose the effect of wind.
