The construction of iconic towers, such as the 828 meters high Burj Khalifa (formerly Burj Dubai) officially inaugurated on 4th January 2010, imposes many challenges to surveyors.
The First International FIG Workshop on High Rise and Tall Engineering Structures, organised jointly by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI), the FIG Com-mission 6 “Engineering Surveys”, WG 6.2 “Engineering Surveys for Construction work and Structural Engineering”, and the University of Nottingham Ningbo China will review the current state of the art with the contribution of international experts in structural monitoring high rise and tall engineering structures during the construction and also after when structural health monitoring solutions have to be considered due to maintenance and contractor’s responsibilities and especially under wind and seismic loads.
