Mrs. Hanzel wants: A skyscraper for the eVolo skyscraper contest Skyscraper footprints to be made of basic geometric shapes To see if we can create a winning skyscraper design
What we plan to do to solve the problem for eVolo: Make a footprint for a skyscraper and make a 3D model.
We need to know the area of a building so that we know how much the building costs when we base it off of how much the Burj Khalifa cost to build per square meter, which was $5,000. Section 1 (footprint 1) app. area: 150,000 m 2 Section 2 (footprint 2) app. area: 170,000 m 2 Section 3 (footprint 3) app. area: 30,300 m 2 Cost of section 1: $750,000,000 Cost of section 2: $850,000,000 Cost of section 3: $151,500,000 Total cost of the building: $1,751,500,000
Interior designers need the surface area or a building to know how much carpet or other things like furniture to put in it. App. Surface Area of Section 1: 112, m 2 App. Surface Area of Section 2: 125,000,000 m 2 App. Surface Area of Section 3: 105,900 m 2 Total Surface Area of the Building: 125,218, m 2
Mechanical engineers need volume of a building to see how much space they need to heat or cool. App. Volume of Section 1: 764, m 3 App. Volume of Section 2: 840,000 m 3 App. Volume of Section 3: 151,500 m 3 Total Volume of the Building: 1,755, m 3
