This document summarizes Jean Nouvel's Institut du Monde Arabe building in Paris. It provides background on Nouvel and his philosophy of merging insider and outsider perspectives. The Institut du Monde Arabe was a collaboration between Arab countries and France to showcase cultural fusion. Nouvel's design features two volumes around an inner courtyard, with distinctive north and south facades made of aluminum, glass and intricate windows. The building utilizes light, space and circulation elements like a glass atrium to create varied interior effects.
The Unité d'Habitation in Marseille, France was Le Corbusier's first large-scale housing project completed in 1952. It consisted of 337 apartments spread across 18 floors designed with communal spaces like shops and a roof garden to encourage social interaction. The building used reinforced concrete and employed Le Corbusier's modular system to ensure proper human scale. It was an early example of high-density housing that influenced the Brutalist style through its use of exposed concrete construction.
This document summarizes a qualitative study of French colonial housing blocks in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The study had three objectives: to understand the history of the housing blocks, survey their current state, and discuss findings related to housing and urban planning.

Innovation for Real Estate: Building Information Modeling (Erin Rae Hoffer) -...Virtual ULI
Building Information Modeling (BIM) allows developers to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings. BIM creates an information-rich digital representation of the building process from early design through facilities management. Using BIM, developers can visualize designs in 3D, identify structural conflicts, conduct energy analyses, and simulate construction schedules to improve coordination and reduce costs and risks. As BIM adoption increases, it is expected to transform the real estate industry by enabling better design quality, shorter project timelines, and more efficient long-term building management.
VHM is planning an IPO on May 17, 2018. Demand for real estate, especially low to mid-end segments, is expected to increase in Vietnam over the next decade. Interest rates on real estate loans have decreased and are projected to continue decreasing, further boosting demand. VHM has strong sales prospects for its ongoing projects near Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi due to growing demand, past project success, and unique community designs. VHM expects to recognize most of its $74 billion in pre-sales revenues from existing projects in 2018 and 2019, contributing significantly to profits during the IPO period. However, VHM's high debt-to-equity ratio before the IPO indicates significant risk.

population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

1. Introduction:
(1)
According to CBRE’s report, Marc Townsend judged that Asian should upgrade grade of office
to adapt the demand of global tenants (2) that means bringing more qualitative building contributed,
the more attractiveness Vietnam office market gets. CBRE also mentioned in this report that net
(3)
absorption coming from grades B and C in 2011 was higher than grade A . So a question
appeared in my mind that there should or should not exist Vietcombank Tower (VCB Tower)
which consists of forty percent area for VCB bank office and sixty percent area for Grade A for-
rent office in 2013.
On the other hand, it took seven years since 2003 proposing VCB Tower project to 2010 approving
(4)
the project, and there were five options within five completely different perspectives to VBB
choose, so another question appeared that what criteria being best to VBB choose the option
designed by (5) Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects to construct.
These questions above reached me to pick VCB Tower amongst thirty three developments in
district 1 for assignment researching technical and economic feasibility of offices in Ho Chi Minh
city, Vietnam. But because of the limited information I got, this paper may not show a full
conclusion or prediction for every criteria evaluating VCB Tower project.
Keywords: Marc Townsend, Pelli Clarke Pelli architects, VBB, Vietcombank Tower options,
Vietnam Real estate, Demand of Office for Rent, Fiscal Policies, City Planning, land value, long
term perspective, Site Area, Coverage, Construction Area, G.F.A – Gross Floor Area (within and
without basement), F.A.R – Floor Area Ratio, Share Area (Open Space, Technical Floor, Parking),
Podium, Retail.

2.2. VCB Tower – Project 2003 to 2010:
Preparation and Legalization: 16th December 2003, HCMc. Department of Planning & Investment
(DPI) proposed to city People’s Committee a project which would be invested by Vietcombank,
Bonday Investment and Ben Thanh Tourist. 9th November 2004 City People’s Committee dispatch
document no. 6804/UB-DA requiring establishing Vietcombank (52%) – Bonday (30%) – Ben Thanh
Tourist (18%) Jointventure Co., Ltd. (VBB). 16th August 2005 HCMc. DPI provided to VBB their
land-use right certification T00349/2a. According to document no. 1033/VP-ĐT issued by City
People’s Committee, HCMc. Department of Architecture & Planning (DPA) took a response directing
VBB to enforce the project. 18th May 2006 HCMc. DPA proposed to City People’s Committee a scope
of work and all criteria to be approved by document no. 2881/VP-ĐT.
Competition and Stagnation: 19th March 2007 VBB proposed a revision for building cost from $55
million to $65-70 million and building height from 35 to 39 floors, G.F.A (Gross Floor Area) from
74,400 m2 to 76,000 m2. At the same time, VBB organized a competition and chose several options in
(6)
which they decided to choose the option designed by DP Consulting Co., Ltd. as the first prize
proposing to DPA.

Since then, VBB and DP Consulting could not push the project up because of difficult in finding sub-
contractors, so they stopped their co-operation.

2.3. VCB Tower – Approval & Construction 2011-2013:
Another Participated: With a deep experience in designing land mark building Pelli Clarke Pelli
Architects from America (PCPA) was selected as another potential partner to design VCB Tower.
Many buildings on the world were built by PCPA such as World Financial Center in New York,
Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, International Finance Centre in Hong Kong. And others financial
institutions including Citigroup (London), BankBoston (Buenos Aires), Wachovia (Winston-Salem,
N.C.), Bank of America (Charlotte, N.C.), Lehman Brothers (London), and Wells Fargo (Minneapolis,
Minn.) has designed by PCLA.
Approval & Construction 2011-2013:
According to document no. 4680/UBND-ĐTMT issued on 22th September 2010 by City People’s
Committee and 2348/SQHKT-QHKTT issued on 27th August 2010, VCB Tower was approved to get
171 meter height (206 meter to the top of lightning), corresponding to 35 floors (the roof could be 27
meter higher than the old one by DP Consulting). They approved for 67% of land can be constructed,
total floor area is 77.000 m2 and coefficient land use (F.A.R – floor area ratio) is less than 20. More
requirements are 244 lots for car parking, 100 lots for motor parking and more than 4 meter step back.
The estimate cost for contributing this 3.230 m2 site area would be approximate $96.5 million ($69
million for construction). The main function of VCB Tower is that 40% for VCB office - HCM branch
(7)
and 60% for office rental-type A. At the current time, PCPA has chosen BSV Bachy Soletanche
(8)
Vietnam as sub-contractor constructing VCB Tower’s basement, Euro Window as sub-contractor
finishing the façade of the building.
According to BSV, 16th April 2010 was the date BSV signing the contract with VBB as the main
contractor for basement construction packet which would be done in seventeen months. October 2010
was the date VCB tower project on construction stage.

3. Methodology of analysis & evaluation:
Firstly all information in this paper is collected by July 2011, so any further revision or development
for VCB tower could be changed up to date based on it. Secondly my methodology used to evaluate
five norms which consist of strong, satisfactory, function, aesthetic and economic will be followed the
formulation:
No. Article Foundation Source Compare to Result Follow
A Architecture Drawing ATA Architects Permission Meet fully (Y)/ Table
& Planning Argument Architecture Forum Voted (%) not satisfy (N) 1, 2, 4
B Economic & Drawing Lecture by Professor Drawing to Meet fully (Y)/ Table
Real Estate Research CBRE & others research not satisfy (N) 3, 5
3.1. VCB Tower - architecture design:
Vietnam and America standards permitted by People’s Committee are two sets of architectural and
technical criteria used to design the building. Other mechanic and electrical standards are followed
America, England and Canada as well.
For evaluating technical feasibility, all parameters showed on table 1 will express clearly how much
success the project could get. These parameters designed by PCPA are performed in drawing set
developed by ATA Architects that is attached below.
According to drawings, 4 meter set back from Mac Thi Buoi and Hai Ba Trung streets and 6 meter set
back from Phan Van Dat street and Melinh square are good enough as the permission asked.
Also based on drawings, a simple calculation contributed to find out total area for parking area is that
{sum area of basement 2 to 4 (3 floors)} minus {total area of stairs, elevators, corridor, and
technique rooms such as pump, septic, waste water, etc.}. So on the real area for cars, motors and
bicycle can approximately equal to 70 percent of the total area for parking area has just found because
there must be 30 percent of total area for two lanes moving vehicle and turning corners.

10. Nguyen Thi Le Ha - Technical and Economic Feasibility of Vietcombank Tower in Ho Chi Minh city.
The most important reason explaining why number of elevators mentioned in table 1 is the ability to
escape from the building that could answer for how smooth transportation and moving flow are.
Real area used by office is calculated in table 1 as well as parking area in order to evaluate how
effective of floor using per cost unit then.

3.2. VCB Tower on District 1 & general planning of HCMc
Evaluating this term seems to be difficult in case of a project being constructed, so I collected arguments
from many prestigious architecture forums to see how people said about VCB tower. And the result is on
table 2 right below. More detail for environmental benefit from this building, VCB tower’s water reuse
system would be provided.

3 Environmental benefit 1 2 3 4 5
3.3. VCB Tower – economic aspect
During a long process since 1997 designing to 2010 constructing, VCB tower have had many options to
choose so that the construction cost also changed from $55 million to $70 million then 96.5 million within
52% funding from VCB, 30% from Bonday and 18% from Ben Thanh Tourist.
Table 3: Estimation of VCB tower project by VBB (Vietcombank – Bonday – Ben Thanh)
No. Article Unit Prediction
1 Construction Cost $US 96.5 mil
2 Price per square meter for-rent $US 45-55
3 Time finished Date Year 2013
4. Evaluation
According to table 1 of part 3.1, a short mathematical contribution should be done as like as table 2 below.
As the last column on table 2 saying “Yes”, Vietcombank Tower must be feasible at the technical side.
_________________________________
Table 3: these numbers are taken from several Vietnam and International magazines and newspaper
Page 11
13. Nguyen Thi Le Ha - Technical and Economic Feasibility of Vietcombank Tower in Ho Chi Minh city.
However the last point cannot be skipped in table 1 is “F.A.R = 20” - very high ratio which was not
permitted before by People’s Committee that means adding more floor into the building is not only more
benefit for investor but also high density for Melinh Square. So on this area would be changed for the long
term perspective of district 1 and HCM city.

By the way calculated on table 5, after 70 years (formulation = year = 96.5 mil / net operating income)
VBB could get back their funding for this project. But there are another struggle formulation to find out
VCB tower’s IRR and NPV to evaluate economic feasibility. However they need a higher level of
information which I could not reach, so a clear conclusion for VCB economic feasibility is impossible in
this case.
Another word for VCB Tower is that it would be a huge effect to social and planning of HCM city in the
near future.
