Unexplained Onset Of Motion Sickness

Hotel

In Abu Dhabi, currently the Exhibition Centre (ADNEC, Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company) is expanded. The first two pictures show images of a model which was issued in ADNEC. In the second picture in the far background, is not able to see very well, the oblique or Hyatt Hotel Capital Gate (the gateway to the capital) to see.

Once it completed, it will have a height of 160m and 35 floors, many offices and 200 rooms to tourists or visitors ADNEC are available.
was in May of the shell to be completed to a height of 100 m . The center core was on floor 22 and on the 18th floor around it
The last pictures show images of the structural work now and about 2 months. Good to see such an angle is ultimately the whole building. This gives a skewed 18 degrees to the west. As a comparison, the problems in the tower of Pisa is only sometimes just 4 degrees. Those who are some interesting design details, I recommend that with hard to read to translate foreign words heaped on English text (for images).


Because of its unique posture, the 35 storey Capital Gate is being constructed on top of a 2m deep concrete raft with an incredibly dense mesh of reinforced steel. The extraordinary steel exoskeleton known as the "diagrid" sits above at extensive distribution of 490 piles that have been drilled 30 meters underground to accommodate the gravitational, wind and seismic pressures. The design of the central core, Which Slants in opposite direction to the lean of the building, straightening as it grows, has never been attempted before.
