Summary

Résumé de la présentation

The presentation is examining current technologies being implemented in vertical transportation and how the technologies are the building blocks for future innovations. We will discuss how current and emerging technology can used in planning super high building to prevent an exponential use of the building core for vertical transportation. How we can invest in platforms that allow growth with building use and greater integration with building systems. Lets look at what is next.
