The design development programme for Dubai Creek Tower is fully complete.
BMT, an international design, engineering and risk management consultancy, announced that it had taken the Emaar Properties project "to 100% design development".
Wind engineering experts from BMT have completed aerodynamic shape optimisation studies, wind loading analyses, and façade wind pressure assessments for the project.

Dubai's ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, stopped by the Santiago Calatrava-designed Dubai Creek Tower megaproject last month and inspected the monumental foundation work of what may soon be the world's tallest building (the final height is still kept a secret but was announced to surpass the 829.8 m/2,722 ft of the current and nearby record holder, the Burj Khalifa).

Did any employees die during the DD? Cuz many will surely die during construction.
Can you build in a function in your BIM families that tabulates the expected slave deaths required for project completition?
Slave deaths are never counted.
Well, maybe we can use parimetricism to do the dirty work?
Maybe Calatrava can team up with Patrick Schumacher!
I'm so hoping for a sinkhole that's deep enough...
