Al-Borouj Misr Developments has contracted RWDI Company, an engineering consultancy firm specialised in wind engineering and its effect on skyscrapers, to conduct wind engineering studies for Sixty Iconic Tower project in New Administrative Capital (NAC).
Deputy Chairperson of Al-Borouj Misr, Mohamed Assy, stated that the company completed all the studies related to wind engineering for the Sixty Iconic Tower project.
Assy said that RWDI will be responsible for conducting wind effect studies on Sixty Iconic Tower in order to ensure the quality and efficiency of the building to face any climatic conditions.
He added that wind engineering is one of the essential studies carried out by consulting companies to identify the effect of wind on buildings. The company adopted these studies during designing the project to get the highest operating efficiency.
Al-Borouj Misr will be the first company that implements the latest results of these studies, which the rest of the tower developers will follow as an essential requirement of getting the licence for skyscrapers in the NAC, Assy noted.
He pointed out that the Sixity Iconic Tower project is located on 13,000 sqm in front of the Central Business District at the New Capital and comprises 45 floors, in addition to 5 underground floors dedicated to parking.
The project will be built on 60% of its size with gross sales area reaching more than 55,000 sqm. The project encompasses administrative and commercial units besides serviced-apartments. Al-Borouj Misr has also contracted with the English consultancy Dsa Architect International, which has experience of more than 35 years in the field of towers and skyscrapers design, for designing the project.
