[Dubai-Lover]

seen this once, but are you sure it's approved?

[Krazy]

Yup, its approved. It will definitely get built, and this is the basic design but variations might exist. source: gulfconstructionworldwide.com.

[Krazy]

The Doha high rise tower is cylindrical and measures about 45m in diameter. It is capped by a dome and topped by a lightning conductor at 231,50m. The structure is of steel and concrete on a lozenge grid bending upon the virtual surface of the cylinder. The façade is composed of a double cladding. The exterior which evokes the geometric complexity of the oriental moucharabieh and acts as main solar protection is composed of four " butterfly" aluminium elements of different scales. Its overall pattern is different according to orientations and needs for different protection: 25% towards north, 40% towards south, 60% on east and west. The inside layer is a slightly reflective glass skin to complement solar protection. Last a system of roller-blinds can be used if needed.

Each floor is offered panoramic views towards the Gulf on the east, the port on the south, the city on the west, the coast and the desert on the north.
The tower is accessed through a planted garden sloping gently towards the large lobby under a glass canopy surrounding the building, suggesting that the tower is deeply rooted in earth. Vegetation and glass canopy overlap so as to blur the limits between nature and man made environment. A huge atrium rises up to level 27 at 112m high. Tall and slim, glittering in its silvery laced silhouette against the skyline, the tower is bound to become a fine landmark on the Doha Corniche.

[Dubai-Lover]

yeah
now i have seen it

emporis calls me again, happening quite often :lol:

[Krazy]

Great, now u can improve the Bahrain and Qatar sections of emporis! They need a lotta help!

[Dubai-Lover]

this one was on emporis already, but i have added the render and some details

[Krazy]

The height for this one on emporis is listed as 234m.

[Dubai-Lover]

not any longer
architect homepage says 231.5m

[Krazy]

great accuracy !

[Qatar4Ever]

hey.. this one is coming up right outside my office window. Remeber guys there was talk about the tallest tower in doha which is also going to be Qatar's National bank HQ. This is it!!

[Dubai-Lover]

so, the name will be qatar national bank tower?
as it's next to your office, could you check the signboard for contractors and more details
photos of the site and signboard would be great!

[dubaiflo]

is this one UC?

[MillenniaL]

Yes , the excavation works already began several months ago .. and I think they are working in foundation now :)

[Qatar4Ever]

I was looking at the foundation work of this building today from my office. They started work before Feb. of this year. U know how far they got !! They dog a big hole half the time, then they buried it, and now theyre building a new bigger hole. Lets not mention the 5 story high sand pile theyve created. If it was dubai the building would of been built by now !

[Halawala]

There was already this thread, so I erased the new one :)

[suzan]

No problem.. but why cant i find them!!! i did what u told me to do, I get to see other threadss but belieeve me, this one wasnt there!

thanks!

[Massilia]

So what's up with this tower, is it finally rising?

[zx]

So what's up with this tower, is it finally rising?

no

[suzan]

not at all...

[salman515]

fix the title pls it not qatar tower it should be national bank or somthing

[omarmakki]

I posted a pic of it before in the Doha Construction photos...
They were working on it. And it wasn't a hole. There was 'structure' :D

[Massilia]

fix the title pls it not qatar tower it should be national bank or somthing

Yes that's right, its official name is 'Doha High Rise Office Building", would be cool to change the title for there are at least 2 other Burj Qatar ;)

[Halawala]

^^^^ for the 1000000000000th time

[Massilia]

By the way I think that the architect, Jean Nouvel, did not put too much effort into this tower, it's more like a duplicate of his Agbar Tower in Barcelona..

http://www.aviewoncities.com/img/barcelona/kvesp1023s.jpg

[suzan]

nice catch Massilia.. and I agree too

[omarmakki]

Yep... It looks almost the same...
But the one U/C here looks much better I have to say! :D

[Halawala]

It also looks similar to the building in London
http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/upload/img_400/NMR23257_08x450.jpg

but this building i think uses advanced technology to save electricity I think, with a large atrium in the middle.

[Halawala]

Actually Massila, the building which you showed Torre Agbar in Spain is designed by no other than Jean Novel.

[bhaggy3]

thts wat he sed lol

[Massilia]

Actually, i found out that Torre Agbar is from Jean Nouvel during an expo, and at first i thought they made a mistake.. i told the conference guy that it was a project of him in Qatar, he told me no, and i was about to argue with him for i was sure!! Confusing isnt it? :D

[Halawala]

It sure is! Very confusing..

But, this tower is much larger and better than the one in Spain.

PS. I didn't know you knew about Jean Novel in Spain. ;)

[Qatar Son 333]

nice pic

[gulfexpress]

I have to say that even though there is an uncanning resemblance to the two towers in spain and london, I think the facade (pattern) will give it a beautiful touch, although it might not be shown properly in the pictures, but when its done and at 230m high, it will give it a very unique look.

[Halawala]

Yes it will look good and unique in Qatar. Thanks suzan for the pics!

[Massilia]

Thanks for the new render.
I think the same way you do Halawala, I believe this building will look good! And like you said Gulfexpress, the facace sounds very promising! Jean Nouvel can be especially good at this patterns/texture thing, his works at the Arab World Institute in Paris or the court in Nantes are wonderful!

DOHA HIGH RISE TOWER will be a great one to Doha's sky line...... u guys were wondering why is it taking too long........ did u know that this tower has 4 basements .....if you pass by the corniche you will see that its done with the ground floor and is up three to four floors already..... such projects take time at the beginning....one more thing the contractor are Chinese and once they start on the typical floor they will become like human machines and finish it in a day or two..... i think this will be the best looking tower in Doha..... :) :)

One thing I like about this tower is the type of support its getting. From the exterior the concrete structure cris-crosses the whole tower. Do you know those big apples you buy from the market--the genetically modified apples? Well, usually, you will have a styrofoam pocket that wraps each apple. The concrete columns resemble those styrofoam pockets.

If you dont know what Im talking about then you're lost!

[Massilia]

If you dont know what Im talking about then you're lost!

^^ I like your conclusion...I really am :D

I have the drawings .... i am going to try and find the steel structure drawings so you can have a better idea of how its going to be..... but i would need some time.....

Omar, didn't you take your pic while doing a WALK tour of West Bay during the summer? I still remember this episode as I was very impressed by it! lol! I would have died doing that!!!

[omarmakki]

Oh yes, that was part of the "tour"! :D

You are right, it was called Doha Office Tower; then, the tower was changed to Burj Qatar, and we don't know what the final name will be. Until then, its called Burj Qatar.

Suzan, it does look huge!! Really wide!
Thanks a million for the pics :)

[Halawala]

In reality, it looks huge from ground level--which is strange since most towers look tiny when they are at ground level. But, the thing is it is sooo slow since the construction method is very difficult to do.

Of course it's soooo slow....they need all of the concrete produced in Qatar to make just one of the columns lol...they're huge!

[Qatar Son 333]

hmm the concrete .... in Qatar ?! made in Qatar ??????????? i thought the brought it from somewhere else

[suzan]

Ok, I cant wait to see the facade of this one.

[Mŏ Cuişhle]

lol yeah I've noticed that too ,, the columns are so huge ..
so that explains why it's being built so slowy !!
