Summary |
This is Taipei 101, Taiwan's record breaking skyscraper. Incredibly it's one third taller than the Empire State Building, and cost $1.75 billion to build. But Taipei 101 not only stands in a typhoon hot spot, but right beside an active earthquake fault line. It couldn't exist without the surprising engineering connections hidden deep within its design |
