The Construction of Burj Khalifa:
Burj Khalifa was named after the president of UAE sheikh Khalifa bin zayed and ruler of Abu Dhabi, which was a good move to unite the two emirates of UAE.
The architecture of Burj Khalifa is taken from the Hymenocallis flower, a desert flower that’s related to this region of UAE and Islamic architecture, but if we talk about the construction of this building it was quiet challenging!
So, let us don’t forget that we are talking about the tallest building in the whole world, and as it’s known when something is never done before you have to face new challenges that did not exist before. One of the challenges for example was Dubai’s hot climate and heat that can affect the curing of the concrete, so the building was often built at night when climate is a little cooler. Despite these challenges, the building was finished in 2010.
