| Abstract |
Since the end of 20th century, the construction of high-rise buildings is greatly increased. The column of tall buildings is inherently vertically shortened and it causes several serviceability problems such as tilting of slab, crack within partition wall, deformation of curtain wall. Therefore, the column shortening has to be compensated at construction stage. To make sure the accurate compensation of column shortening, advanced and additional survey method is required. In this study, the basic survey method for tall building construction is briefly addressed. And the survey methods for the KLCC, TELEKOM H/Q, Plaza Rakyat projects are analytically examined. It could be concluded that vertical and horizontal levels has to be surveyed by the higher resolution equipment and combination of small and large zone survey is required. |
