Constructions of high rises a building provides the comfort living standard for the people and also help in the planning of the cities. The main purpose of this paper is to present the construction of high rise building using the different techniques and for the growing of population demand of the high rise building. Also for the high rise building the requirements that are essential for it are mentioned. Keywords: High Rise Building, Planning, Quality Control, Construction Techniques, Requirements Introduction: The requirements of growing population are growing at rapid rate with the rate of population. People are searching for more space for their enhancing lifestyles. It is self explanatory that accommodation is one of the basic requirements for any industry or a person personally. Land is getting wrapped with concrete and bituminous. In this case to achieve the demands of people the high rise buildings are the major solution both aesthetically, and technically. Here in this paper i am briefing about the requirements for high rise building, their demand and the construction techniques with sophisticated technologies and ideas of green concepts for a better quality life, health and prosperity of occupants provided with the stability and strength to the structures. High rise buildings are one of the top most sophisticated structures in demand today. Normally each and every construction companies today are working on it. The newer technologies are being applied and some are still being explored. Due to the scarcity of land because of rapid growing of population, people are unable to reach their demand by which the high rise buildings are being constructed to fulfill the demand of the people. As this high rise buildings are providing the better living facilities for the people with better facility. The architecture and the structure are the two most closely related professions for the design of the high rise building. The high rise building are still made of the solid brick masonry up until the end of the last century. History of high rise building: The first to apply the scientific knowledge for the construction of building were the ancient Egyptians. The apply the natural science technology about the properties of the material to design the huge building with huge rooms. The first high rise office building was built in Chicago in 1885, which is of twelve floor before it was ten floor but afterward two floor have been added and was built in roughly sixteen month. At first the definition of the high building and high rise building must be understood. High building means the building which are having no more floors and in other hand the high rise building means the building which are having a number of floors of normal height one above another. Also according to bible it has been written that the tower of babel has to reach unto the heaven. The early equitable life building in Newyork which was completed in 1872 also contribute toward the development of the high rise building, for it was the first building to have the elevator with the six floor. Recently there are many high rise building were going to be constructed with the latest construction techniques. Requirement for high rise building: As the high rise building are constructed rapidly and the demand of high rise building is also very high for the growing population due to the scarcity of land. For the construction of high rise building there are some requirement that should be fulfill. Safety and health facility is the most requirement of the high rise building. Planning: The first requirement for the construction of any types of building is planning. Planning is important for the construction of high rise building to complete the work in time. The estimation of material and the requirement of the material must be mention before the construction work. Before the construction starts , how the works should go, what are the requisites and steps to be followed, what kind of problems may arrive and how to tackle them ;are the important task one need to include in the planning and scheduling of work from excavation, construction of foundation to finishing through erection of frame and walls. The security, quality assurance, test and regular investigation of the works being executed are the other necessary points in a planning. Construction, quality control and execution of the work: High rise building are well designed structure which needs a deep investigation, preplan, pre-engineering work , final of design and plan, construction and execution. In this process the other factor, one shouldn’t forget to remember is quality assurance. The quality of work done, quality of material used and quality man power are to be maintain in the site throughout the period of construction. The whole life of the building and it’s strength depends upon the factors as explained and are illustrated in the
