Category 1: Buildings
The London Tower is the largest residential tower of Antwerp with an aboveground height of 76 m (22 storeys), an underground depth of 10 m (3 levels) and a surface of 37.5 m by 18.5 m. The structural support system consists of a central slided concrete core, prefabricated outside walls, flat dividing prefabricated concrete walls and cast in-situ concrete slabs. The construction time was minimized by the use of a sliding formwork for the central concrete core. The building was entirely calculated with ESA-Prima Win using a general model for the final stage and a stripped model for the construction stage of the core.
