The document discusses the Palais Royale in Mumbai, India's first super tall residential building, designed for LEED platinum certification and featuring advanced structural techniques to minimize movement. It also describes Taipei 101, previously the world's tallest building with LEED platinum status, notable for its sustainable design and cultural architectural influences. Key features of both skyscrapers include extensive amenities, innovative materials like Corian, and structural resilience to environmental challenges.

3. PALAIS ROYALE, MUMBAI.
• Official Name: Palais Royale.
• Status: Structurally topped out.
• Country: India.
• City: Mumbai.
• Building Function: Residential.
• Structural Material: Concrete.
• Energy Label: LEED Platinum.
• ProposedYear: 2005
• ConstructionYear: 2008

4. INTRODUCTION
• When construction began in 2008, palais royale was expected to be the
India's first super tall building.
• The luxury building was the first residential tower to be designed around a
LEED pre-certification and from the onset of the project , the development
team sought to achieve a platinum rating.
• In order to increase the comfort level of the occupants, the tower was
designed to have as little movement as possible through the use of very
robust reinforced concrete frame and a low aspects ratio of 1:4.
• Because the tower design did not have podium or any adjoining structures,
parking and amenity levels where included within the tower footprint.
• The design specifies the façade cladding to be entirely made of dupont’s
corian’ the first time it has been used on a residential high rise and was
chosen for the materials residents to the local humid tropical climate.

5. IMPORTANT PLANNING
FEATURES
• Two basements.
• Landscaped terraces/ balconies at
apartment levels.
• Transfer girder level.
• Large span floors and wide column
free spaces at lower levels.
• Heavy landscaping loads at ground
and amenity level.
• Heavy equipments at terrace levels.

6. DESIGN CONCEPT
• Foundation – combined footing forming a ring raft.
• Basement –
- watering stitched raft anchored to ground with pree-stressed rock anchores.
- RCC proposed retaining wall.
• Columns – m:80 self compacting concrete.
• Post tensioning beams below girder levels.
• Girders : strut tie/ deep beam model.
• Bramhastan- voided slabs.
• Podium- post- tensioned flat slabs.
• Girder performance enhancement
- horizontal post tensioning-bottom chord.
-profiled post tensioning-web.
-vertical post tensioning- girder levels.

7. IMPORTANT
ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES
• The bramhastan- column free space
at center of building.
• Entrance canopy- pyramidal shaped.
• The moat- light and ventilation to
basement the atrium-220 meter high.
• Skylight- covers the atrium spanning
35 meters.
• Roof cap- houses solar and wind
energy equipment.
• Amenities- swimming pool, mini golf
course, tennis court, mini cricket
ground, health club, squash court,
basketball etc.
• Corian cladding.

8. • Taipei 101, formerly known as the Taipei World
Financial Center – is a landmark supertall
skyscraper in Xinyi District, Taipei, Republic of
China.
TAIPIE 101
INTRODUCTION
• The building was officially classified as the world's
tallest in 2004, and remained such until the opening
of Burj Khalifa in Dubai in 2010.
• In 2011, the building was awarded the LEED
platinum certification, the highest award according to
the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) rating system, and became the tallest and
largest green building in the world.

9. SUSTAINABILITY
• The US $ 500 million project also has an ambitious sustainability program.
• The project present itself as the first LEED platinum rated sky skipper of
Mumbai as confirmed by te Indian Green Building Council with the help of
technics such as.
The harvesting of rain water.
100% of onsite sewage treatment.
converting wet garbage into organic manure.
recycling of remaining waste.
heating of water through solar panels.
• The building aim to 30-40% on energy and 20-30% on water.

10. OVERVIEW
• 508 M from ground to the tip of the spire.
• 101 floors above ground and 5 basement floors.
• Plan Area - 50M*50M
• Cost - 700 Million $
• Building Use - Office use and Mall
• Construction began in 1999 and ended this year 2004.
• Tallest LEED certified building in the world (LEED Platinum)
• Designed to be flexible as well as structurally resistant.
• Because of the height of Taipei 101, and the building being
located 660 feet away from a major fault line, Taipei 101
used high-performance steel construction and concrete
columns.

12. Structural Features
Podium
● Retail mall that is home to restaurants, clubs, and
hundreds of fashionable stores and attractions.
● The Atrium:
○ the connecting tower
○ twinVierendeel trusses that span the length of the
podium.
○ As a lighter mass, it’s steel structure is not as
heavy as the
tower, the foundation (piles) are fewer in number
and not
as deep.
● 6 Stories

13. Tower
● 25 story truncated pyramid with an intervening floor
taken up by the truss system, and eight stories of smaller
segments of eight above.
● There are also exterior curtain panels slope 5 & 7
degrees, resembling a shoot of bamboo, and tying back to
the mega-columns
● Facade is able to withstand an impact of up to 7 tones.
● Saw-toothed corners greatly reduced crosswind
oscillation.
● 101 Stories + 5 Story Basement
