What is the Tallest Building we Humanity can Build

Our forefathers built a building on the hills of present-day Turkey 12,000 years ago, which is said to be the oldest building in the world. Man has always wanted to see how high he can go in the sky. People of old times used to look at the thousands of stars in the sky and wish they could get there through their buildings. It has always been human nature to be in a struggle to do more than ever before and to try to build the tallest buildings, which have never been built before today. But of course, you would think that in the end there would be a limit to how high we could build a building. Of course, after reading this blog, you will find all your questions and answers.

So let's start with a normal single-story house, which is usually built up to 15 feet or 4.5 meters above the ground. Going further, at 420 feet or 128 meters, there is the world's tallest statue, also known as the "Spring Temple Buddha". This height is so high that if you jump from the head of the statue to the ground, it will take you 5.5 seconds to hit the ground. Going further, at 456 feet or 139 meters, there is the world's tallest roller coaster called "King Da Ka". But even this height is nothing when we compare it to the Egyptian pyramid called the "Pyramid of Gaza", which was built thousands of years ago in 2570 BC. When it was built, it was certainly the tallest man-made building in the world at the time, and it remained the tallest man-made building for the next 3,881 years. Finally, in the year 1311, a building called "Lincoln Cathedral" was built in England, which was 524 feet or 160 meters high. And it remained the tallest man-made building until the "Washington Monument" was erected in the year 1884. The building is located in Washington, DC, USA, and rises to 555 feet or 169 meters. The Washington Monument did not have the honor of being the tallest building for long, surpassed by the famous “Eiffel Tower”, which rises to 986 feet or 301 meters in Paris.

Friends, after building a tall building like the Eiffel Tower, man became curious as to how tall he could build with the help of iron and steel. Finally, in 1930, a 1,046 foot, or 319 meter-high building called "Chrysler" was built, surpassing the height of the Eiffel Tower. One year after its completion, in 1931, the famous American building, the “Empire State”, was crowned the world's tallest building at 1,472 feet, or 448 meters. However, this record did not last long, as the tallest man-made building ever built in 1963 was the "Warsaw Tower". It was built to a height of 2,121 feet or 646 meters. However, it could not withstand its height and weight in 1991 and collapse, but it was the tallest building ever built until 2008. Friends, we add to this list two more buildings that were built before the Warsaw Tower and are also very famous. These include the “CN Tower” in Canada and the “Welles Tower” in the United States. But the world's tallest building to date is currently Dubai's "Burj Khalifa", which rises to a height of 2,722 feet, or 830 meters. The building is so high that if you want to go from the ground floor to the top floor of the building you have to climb 2,909 steps, or you can use an elevator that will take you to the top floor in 2 minutes 40 seconds. If you jump from the height of the Burj Khalifa, it will take you 20 seconds to reach the ground.

The Burj Khalifa is not the tallest building we humans have ever built, but perhaps not the tallest building we can build. We can build even taller than this tallest building if we want to, but what are the factors that are preventing us from doing this at the moment?. If we talk theoretically, there is no limit to how high we can build. However, we need to increase the base of our structure, so that the building can withstand its height and weight. Since the earth is in a spherical shape, there is a limit to how much we can extend the base of a building, so if we want to build a building using all the technology and resources we have so far, it is almost "X-seeded 4000 ". You must be wondering what the "X-Seed 4000" is, friends, this is the skyscraper of the world's tallest building ever designed, what we humans can build in this day and age. And you may not believe when you hear that if this building is completed, it will punch up to a height of 4 km in the sky, compared to which the Burj Khalifa will look very small and weak. The building will be taller than Mount Fuji in Japan. And if we talk about the largest mountain on earth, this building will be 45% of the height of Mount Everest. Or you can think of this height as 20,748 cars that can be parked at one height. If we have to move this building to a height of 4 km, then, of course, the foundations of this building will have to be widened to 6 km, so that it can maintain its weight and height. You could even call this building a metal mountain, with a capacity of one million people, and it would be so high that it would cut through the clouds passing over it. However, the cost of building the tallest building could be as low as 479 billion dollars and as high as 1.4 trillion dollars. That is as much as the total GDP of Russia, the largest country in the world. In other words, Russia's total annual income is equal to the cost of the building. If we start building this building today, we will not stop there and it is possible that in the future we will build more such buildings of incomprehensible heights. For example, a space elevator, which will be at an altitude of one hundred thousand kilometers above the ground, but this is not possible today because we do not have enough material to build such a building. But if our technology advances further in the future, it may be possible. And it will be the tallest building ever built by humanity.
