The red hoarding is part of the ACS, no? ACS is the Automatic Climbing System. They don't need to take parts of it down to raise it, no?
 
thx Cityzen....a request...:)

here at UT we have always shown the heights for Absoluteworld towers as...

Absoluteworld Tower I - 548 ft. (167.1 m) 56 floors

Absoluteworld Tower II - 495 ft. (150.9 m) 50 floors

It always seemed to me that these height numbers were understated....can you provide us with any correction on the accurate height in feet or meters?

thx,

I was under the impression that it was 52 and 48 floors...
 
The same red hoarding will be used all the way up, but the floor plates through the middle of the building have a smaller circumference so it stands to reason they would need fewer through certain floors. Also, if the curves are more sharp, they might need to use different panels that hug the building properly through those sections. ?
 
Absolute 4 / building D: 178.300 m including mechanical penthouse
Absolute 5 / building E: 159.990 m including mechanical penthouse

Absolute 4 – 56 storeys
Absolute 5 – 50 storeys

Thank you Cityzen! :)

We will have to update the 400 foot list....

178.3 meters = 584.97 feet

159.99 meters = 524.90 feet
