World’s Seventh-tallest Building Created by Ronald Lu & Partners Using ?BIM? Digital Design Technology
The 530m-tall Tianjin Chow Tai Fook Financial Centre is a modern design marvel

Ronald Lu & Partners (RLP) is committed to advancing architectural design in the digital age, implementing cutting-edge technologies to create a better life at every opportunity. The 530-metre-high Tianjin Chow Tai Fook Financial Centre (?the tower?; ?the Centre?) is an excellent example of the firm?s commitment to excellence. The seventh-tallest building in the world and the third-tallest in China, this recently-completed tower is a testament to RLP’s extensive skills in using building information modelling (BIM) technology to design and execute world-class structures. In this case, BIM significantly reduced the time and cost of the tower?s construction, and played a vital role in optimising its striking, crystal-clear hyperboloid winding glass curtain wall.
Architects have begun using digital modelling to improve efficiency and accuracy, especially during the design and construction of ultra-complex buildings like the Centre, as it increases accuracy and reduces resource use.
