Architectural Design

Layout

Canton Tower The overall layout of Canton Tower fully considers the surrounding environment of the site. Since the east side of the site is a residential area, the main tower is arranged on the north side of the site, close to the Pearl River and Binjiang Road, which reduces the interaction between its tall volume and surrounding buildings, and forms a complete green square and underground space in the south. A large irregular elevated platform is used around the main tower. The gentle slope extends to the green square in the south and crosses Binjiang Road in the north. It forms a water-friendly platform with the Pearl River through the transition of green steps, seamlessly connecting the riverside landscape belt and expanding the green area of ??the square. Along the steel structure grid outer frame tube ring beam at the top of the tower, there are also 16 sightseeing pods, the highest in the world, which can provide a 360° high-altitude bird's-eye view of Guangzhou and even the Pearl River Delta.

Area

The construction land area of ??Canton Tower is 175,460 square meters, the road area is 42,160 square meters, the total construction area is 114,054 square meters, the tower construction area is 44,276 square meters, and the basement building is 69,779 square meters.

Tower height

Canton Tower is composed of a reinforced concrete inner core tube and a steel structure outer frame tube, as well as the combined floors connecting the two. The core tube height is 454m, ***112 Floor [30], the standard floor height is 5.2m; there are 37 floors, the rest are hollow floors, and there are 2 underground floors. The 37th floor is divided into five functional sections A to E along the entire height of the tower according to functional levels. The total construction area is 121,788 square meters. The steel structure grid outer frame tube is composed of 24 steel tube concrete diagonal columns and 46 sets of ring beams and steel tube diagonal braces. The highest elevation is 462.70m. The antenna mast composed of steel lattice structure and box section is 146 meters high, with the highest elevation reaching 600 meters. The outer frame tube uses more than 40,000 tons of steel, and the total steel consumption is about 60,000 tons. As a landmark building in Guangzhou, it stands on the south bank of the Pearl River on the central axis. It is the tallest tower-masted building in China and the tallest built in the world.

Shape

Canton Tower has a single shape. The main tower body is a towering structure. The appearance of all sides is basically the same height and the plane is oval. Its shape is simple, unified and clear-cut, with the entire tower spiraling upward. The tower body is small on the whole and large on the bottom. The denser sections in the waist of the building can provide a relatively private experience. The more open structure on the top creates a transparent effect.

The upper and lower ovals of the Canton Tower twist and shrink at the waist, and the contrast between the area of ??the thinnest part in the middle and the base and top is prominent. The lattice structure is relatively loose at the bottom and denser up to the waist. The waist is tightened and fixed, and then the lattice structure is released upwards and is supported by gradually tapering tubular structural columns. Planar dimensions and structural density are controlled by two ovals that control the structural design, which simultaneously generate a range of different effects. The entire tower body will not have the same shape when viewed from different directions.

Tower body

The final design of the tower body of Guangzhou Tower is an oval gradient grid structure. Its shape, space and structure are composed of two upward rotating oval steel plates. The shell changes are generated, one on the base plane and one on the imaginary 450-meter-high plane, two ellipses twisted 135 degrees to each other, and the two ellipses twist and shrink at the waist. The entire network of air leakage holes in the tower body can effectively reduce the bulkiness and wind load of the tower body. The tower body adopts a special first-class earthquake-resistant design, which can withstand earthquakes with an intensity of 7.8 and typhoons with a magnitude of 12. The designed service life is more than 100 years.

The external steel structure system of Canton Tower is composed of 24 upright columns, diagonal braces and circular rings. The columns are equally spaced and arranged in a ring.

The body of the Canton Tower changes in size from bottom to top. Among them, the diameter of the ellipse at the bottom is about 60 meters × 80 meters, and the aspect ratio is 7.5; the diameter of the ellipse at the thinnest part in the middle is about 30 meters, and the aspect ratio is 7.3. The diameter of the upper ellipse is approximately 40.5 meters x 54 meters. The 24 columns are spaced at equal intervals and are coordinated and unified.

The entire body of the Canton Tower uses a large number of mesh air leakage holes and is equipped with special transparent glass leakage windows. The scenery is formed by twisting two ellipsoids with a small top and a large bottom. The external steel structure system consists of 24 columns. , diagonal braces and rings intersect.

[12]

The whole facade of Guangzhou Tower is contrasted with different proportions to enhance the overall image of the facade. Detail processing must be based on the overall view. Since the middle part of the tower is high, it is inconvenient to observe details with the naked eye, but the most detailed part in the middle of the appearance gives people a prominent feeling. In addition, since the Guangzhou New TV Tower is located in the aircraft turning area, according to regulations, aircraft there cannot have obstacles within 300 meters of the route location. The flight altitude of the aircraft above the new TV Tower is 900 meters above sea level. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of aircraft flight , the tower top antenna has also been detailed. It has now been withdrawn 10 meters from the tower top antenna, and the final height is 600 meters.

Architectural Features

Canton Tower The entire tower body of Canton Tower is a hollow steel structure frame. The 24 steel columns twist counterclockwise from bottom to top, and the cross-section of each component is changing. . The columns, beams and diagonal braces of the steel structure outer frame tube are all in a three-dimensional tilt state. In addition, the twisted steel structure outer frame tube is thick at the top and bottom and thin in the middle. This is very important for the processing, production, installation, construction measurement and deformation control of steel structure parts. All bring challenges. The outer frame tube of the steel structure alone has 24 steel columns, 46 sets of ring beams, and 1104 different diagonal braces. Due to the difference in materials between the concrete core tube in the middle of the Canton Tower and the outer frame tube of the steel structure, the settlements of the floor beams and the outer frame tube are inconsistent. In order to adjust the correctness of the relative position of the steel components and the main structure, many nodes control the accuracy of the relative position of the steel column body through three-dimensional coordinates.

Energy saving and environmental protection

Through the application and implementation of durable and sustainable building technologies, Canton Tower has achieved good results in energy saving, land saving, material saving, water saving and other aspects. The ratio of the construction area to the building floor area in the underground space is 69%, saving land resources. The estimated annual power generation capacity of the photovoltaic system is 12,660 kWh. The annual power generation capacity of wind turbines is approximately 41,472 kWh. Recycling water can save approximately 12,000 tons of water per year. The proportion of recyclable building materials reaches 18%.

Innovative technology

Three-dimensional space measurement technology

Due to its special shape and ultra-high structure, Canton Tower requires high measurement accuracy. In view of this situation, it was determined to use the GPS positioning system to design the measurement reference network and position the three-dimensional coordinates of the components in the air. In order to meet the installation and positioning needs of steel structures, a spatial measurement reference network was constructed. The spatial measurement reference network consists of five spatial points and one ground point.

Comprehensive safety protection and isolation technology

The steel structure of Canton Tower is installed for ultra-high-altitude operations. Due to the discontinuity of floors, ultra-high-altitude suspension operations must be performed. The risk of injury from falling objects also increases with height. A safety operating system consisting of vertical ladders, horizontal passages, edge fences, operating platforms and anti-fall isolation facilities has been developed.

Special-shaped steel structure pre-deformation technology

Since the Canton Tower has the structural characteristics of deflection and torsion, during the construction process, the structure will not only produce compression deformation and uneven settlement, but also Large horizontal deformation occurs, so pre-deformation control must be carried out. Otherwise, even if the initial installation position is accurate, large cumulative deformation will occur under the action of subsequent loads, causing the node to deviate from the original design position. A pre-deformation plan featuring staged adjustment and ring-by-ring reset was formulated to compensate for the deformation of the steel structure under constant load operations.

Landscape facilities

The Canton Tower Restaurant is located on the 106th floor of the Canton Tower. The 423-meter-high Xuanji Mediterranean Buffet Restaurant is the highest revolving restaurant in the world and can accommodate 130 to 150 people. It was verified by Guinness World Records in 2014 and rated as "the tallest revolving restaurant in a building. The restaurant is designed in an oval ring and rotates once every 100 minutes. It happens to be a dining time period as the rotation cycle, ensuring that all Guests in this location can fully enjoy the gorgeous scenery of Guangzhou, including four restaurants, namely 106/F Xuanji Mediterranean Buffet Restaurant in Area E (the highest revolving restaurant in the world), 105/F Lutees French Revolving Restaurant, and 103~ 103A Yue Jiao Xuan Chinese Restaurant and -1/F Chopsticks Restaurant

Guangzhou's landmark building: Introduction to Canton Tower

Canton Tower (English Introduction to Canton Tower: Canton Tower), also known as Guangzhou New TV Tower Introduction to Canton Tower, nicknamed Xiaomanyao, is located in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City, China ( Yizhou Island) near Chigang Tower, 125 meters away from the south bank of the Pearl River, across the river from Haixinsha Island and Guangzhou's 21st Century CBD District Zhujiang New Town. The main body of the Canton Tower is 454 meters (the highest point of the sightseeing platform on the top of the tower is 488 meters), the antenna mast is 150 meters, and the total height is 600 meters.

Canton Tower is affiliated to Guangzhou Urban Investment Group and is constructed by Guangzhou Construction Group Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Construction Engineering Group. It has a total construction area of ??114,054 square meters and was completed in September 2009. Canton Tower was officially opened to the public on September 30, 2010, and will officially sell tickets to receive tourists on October 1, 2010.

Canton Tower has 5 functional areas and a variety of recreational facilities, including the world's highest outdoor viewing platform at 488m, a high-altitude horizontal Ferris wheel, the extreme speed amusement park, and 2 sightseeing halls. Suspended corridors, ladders, 4D and 3D dynamic cinemas, Chinese and Western food, exhibition facilities, shopping malls and science exhibition halls. Canton Tower is the tallest tower in China and the fourth tallest tower in the world (as of 2014).

Origin of the name

The Chinese name is "Canton Tower". Most TV towers in the world are named after places, and the Guangzhou TV Tower also needs to be named after places, because overseas survey data shows that among pure foreigners, the introduction to the Canton Tower in Chinese cities is mainly from Beijing and Shanghai, and they are relatively unfamiliar with Guangzhou. I often wonder where Guangzhou is in China. Therefore, the naming of Guangzhou TV Tower is not only a matter of naming, but should also carry the elements of spreading the concept of "Guangzhou" to the world.

Location

Canton Tower is located in the center of Guangzhou, at the intersection of the city's new central axis and the Pearl River landscape axis, across the river from Haixinsha Island and Guangzhou's 21st Century CBD District Zhujiang New Town. . Canton Tower is adjacent to the 40-meter-wide Binjiang Road and the Binjiang Green Pedestrian Belt to the north: to the south is the 40-meter-wide Shuangta Road, and to the east and west are the 30-meter-wide Yiyuan East and West Roads respectively. Underground on the west side of the site are Metro Line 3 and the Zhujiang New Town regional rail transit running from north to south. Underground in the central and southern parts are the extension lines of Metro Line 6 running east to west. The southwest corner of the site is adjacent to Chigang Tower.

Design Features

The entire tower body of Canton Tower is a hollow steel structure frame. The 24 steel columns twist counterclockwise from bottom to top, and the cross-section of each component is changing. The columns, beams and diagonal braces of the steel structure outer frame tube are all in a three-dimensional tilt state. In addition, the twisted steel structure outer frame tube is thick at the top and bottom and thin in the middle. This is very important for the processing, production, installation, construction measurement and deformation control of steel structure parts. Canton Tower presents challenges that all pose.

The steel structure outer frame tube alone has 24 steel columns, 46 sets of ring beams, and 1104 different diagonal braces. Due to the difference in materials between the concrete core tube in the middle of the Canton Tower and the outer frame tube of the steel structure, the settlements of the floor beams and the outer frame tube are inconsistent. In order to adjust the correctness of the relative position of the steel components and the main structure, many nodes control the accuracy of the relative position of the steel column body through three-dimensional coordinates.

Structural Features

The final design of the Canton Tower body is an oval gradient grid structure. Its shape, space and structure are changed by two upward rotating oval steel shells. Generated, one on the base plane and one on the imaginary 450-meter-high plane, the two ellipses are twisted 135 degrees to each other, and the two ellipses twist and shrink at the waist. The lattice structure is looser at the bottom and denser up to the waist. The waist is tightened and fixed, like a woven rope, showing a "slender waist". Then the lattice structure is released upwards and is supported by gradually tapering tubular structural columns.

The planar dimensions and structural density are controlled by two ovals that control the structural design, simultaneously creating a range of different effects. The entire tower body will not have the same shape when viewed from different directions. The more open structure at the top creates a transparent effect for observation, while the denser section of the building's waist provides a relatively private experience.

The entire network of air leakage holes in the tower body can effectively reduce the bulkiness and wind load of the tower body. The tower body adopts a special first-class earthquake-resistant design, which can withstand earthquakes with an intensity of 7.8 and typhoons with a magnitude of 12. The designed service life is more than 100 years. Although the height of the Guangzhou New TV Tower is not the highest in the world, with the 150-meter transmitting antenna, the overall height of the 600-meter Guangzhou New TV Tower will still be the tallest in Asia.

Since the Guangzhou New TV Tower is located in the aircraft turning area, according to regulations, aircraft in this area cannot have obstacles within 300 meters of the route location. The flight altitude of the aircraft above the new TV Tower is 900 meters above sea level. Therefore, In order to ensure the safety of aircraft flight, the original height of 610 meters has been removed from the tower top antenna by 10 meters, and the final height is set at 600 meters.

Construction Significance

Canton Tower is positioned as a comprehensive facility mainly for sightseeing and tourism, compatible with radio and television transmission functions, and has become an important landmark building in Guangzhou.

The new TV tower construction project is a new landmark and new image of Guangzhou. In addition to providing hardware support for the upcoming Asian Games broadcast, it will also help to improve the level of cultural facilities in Guangzhou.

Conclusion The construction of Canton Tower is a milestone for Guangzhou and even for Chinese architecture. Many foreign tourists may have only known about Beijing and Shanghai in China before, but did not know about Guangzhou. The Canton Tower is a representative building that allows people who are not familiar with Guangzhou to understand Guangzhou. What is the introduction of Canton Tower?
