Rising elegantly from the deserts Dubai, the Burj Khalifa is currently the highest skyscraper in the world. With its unique design and structure, the building seems to shoots skywards to the amazement of both the viewers and its occupants. For within this man-made giant is located the Burj Khalifa Apartments, the newest and  most elegant high rise living on this side of the globe.

Located at the centre of Dubai, the Burj Khalifa Apartments are at a strategic spot where fine dining, great shopping, and world class entertainment can be found.

The Burj Khalifa Vision

As the Burj Khalifa Apartments are housed within the walls of the tallest man-made structure in the world, it both shares their vision: a symbol of international cooperation and progress.

In less than 30 years, the city of Dubai was able to turn its focus on a global scale and no longer merely a regional hub. And with the construction of the Burj Khalifa, it has achieved a feat of engineering surpassing the best skyscrapers in the world. It is by itself a symbol of Dubai's growth.

Emaar Properties, the company behind this stolid building and the Burj Khalifa Apartments was inspired by the enthusiasm of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) and Ruler of Dubai to reach for the stars and possibly even beyond.

World Record

How would you like to live in a building that currently holds a number of records? Such a prestige alone makes living in the Burj Khalifa Apartments a great experience. Among the records being held by the Burj Khalifa are the following:

• Tallest building in the world at 828 metres (2,716 feet)
• Tallest free-standing structure
• Highest occupied floor in the world
• Highest number of stories with a total of 160 stories
• Highest outdoor observation deck
• Longest travel distance of an elevator
• Tallest service elevator

As you can well see, to live within Burj Khalifa is to signify that you are always aiming to be on the top. That you demand only the best and you truly deserve the best.

State-of-the-Art Structural Design

A structure this high can only be made possible when the latest in building and structural design and technologies are employed. The Burj Khalifa is the result of a number of technological innovations that resulted to a safe, efficient and structurally-sound skyscraper.

Its foundation, for example, made use of 12,500 cubic metres of concrete with a mat totaling 3.7 metres thick. What this means is that the superstructure is lying on top one of the most stable and strong foundations ever created.

The spire, while to some may seem just as a structural ploy to help make the Burj Khalifa the tallest building in the world, is actually essential to the skyscraper's overall design. It has a full height of 200 metres (700 feet). It adds a sense of completion to the building and also houses communications equipment.
