TOWER WITH HITACHI VT TOPS OUT IN SHENZHEN
The Kaisa Finance & Technology Center, a 258-m-tall office tower in Shenzhen, China, has topped out, vertical-transportation (VT) provider Hitachi Elevator (China) reported on November 18. The project, which houses 130,000 m2 of space, will include Grade-A office space, a business center, a shared conference center, a staff canteen, a sky garden and a sky lobby. The tower has obtained pre-qualification environmental certifications. With 50 stories above ground and four below-grade levels, the Kaisa Finance & Technology Center will be served by 46 Hitachi escalators and elevators, including 12 high-speed elevators that can travel 5-8 m/s. The elevators are equipped with Hitachi's Destination Floor Reservation System, which incorporates data from system operation, passenger movement, building equipment and layout to provide intelligent elevator dispatching. All building VT will also be equipped with the Hitachi ELECLOUD® system to provide 24-h monitoring. The building is expected to be complete in early 2022.
