Baynunah Tower

Drie torens in één
De Baynunah Tower werd gebouwd door BESIX en omvat een 163 meter hoog complex met drie torens. Dit prestigieuze appartementsgebouw beschikt ook nog over een hotel, sportinfrastructuren, zes parkeerverdiepingen… en een indrukwekkende hoeveelheid marmer en graniet.

A trio of elegance

In the centre of the UAE’s largest emirate, BESIX built a tower with multiple facets: an elegant union of three towers, structured around a cylindrical core with space for lifts and water tanks, and containing 25, 31 and 37 floors respectively. At the time of its completion, it was the region’s tallest tower and its first built in high-strength concrete (micro-silicates).

Multifunctional

In addition to the hotel, the tower comprises residential apartments, suites, parking garages and a fitness centre with pool. The ground floor opens onto a shopping mall. The top of the building hosts a telecommunications centre, while an adjoining building houses the management offices.

Met dit project heeft BESIX een mooi staaltje gegeven van zijn dynamisme, vernieuwingsdrang en capaciteit om de grenzen van zijn kennis te verleggen.

Concrete, marble and granite

The tower’s concrete structure was built on a foundation of drilled reinforced concrete piles. The royal blue glass curtain wall façades offer superb views of the sea and the city of Abu Dhabi. Decorated with arabesque motifs, the concrete façades of the three outer cylinders contain the emergency stairs and the exterior lifts. Floors and wall coverings inside the apartments and suites make heavy use of marble and high-quality granite.
