About Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre:
Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre is a mixed-use tower located across from Guangzhou
International Finance Center and Canton Tower. The project is adjacent to a large central
park and a subterranean retail concourse with transportation interchanges, integrating the
project into the city and the wider region.

The design of Guangzhou CTF Finance Centre is derived from the efficient synthesis of
its multiple uses. Its form is sculpted at four major transition points: office to residential,
residential to hotel, hotel to crown, and crown to sky. Instead of tapering to accommodate
the smaller floor plates required for different programs, the tower steps back at four
angled parapets. These four setbacks allow for lush sky terraces and dramatic skylights.

Careful attention was paid to the material selection for the tower. Thus, a series of subtle
terra cotta mullions line the tower’s elevations. This material played a very important role
in both Eastern and Western history, and is also beneficial from an environmental
standpoint. The embodied energy of terra cotta is far less than aluminum, glass, or steel. It
is self-cleaning and corrosion-resistant. Moreover, it can be produced in many locations in
China, reducing the environmental impact of shipping. These terra cotta mullions were
designed to project out from the glass on an angle to provide shading on the exterior.

The building employs a number of energy efficient tools to reduce its environmental
footprint. In addition to its strong multi-level connections to public transportation, the use
of high-efficiency chillers and heat recovery from the water-cooled chiller condensers all
contribute to the building’s sustainability

Guangzhou CTF (Chow Tai Fook)
Centre

The 530m Guangzhou CTF (Chow Tai Fook)


Centre (GZCTF), formerly known as East Tower, is
the tallest building in Guangzhou
(Figures 1, 2 & 3). With a combination of Grade-
A offices, luxury hotels, deluxe serviced
apartments, restaurants, and retail spaces
in one efficient tower, GZCTF possesses an
image of an integrated vertical city, rather
than just a symbol for the fast-growing pace
of Guangzhou..
The VTS design for the entire building is classified it into four zones: low-zone office
(zones 1 and 2), high-zone office (zones 3 and4), serviced apartments and hotel zone
(Figures 4, 5 & 6).
The office zone has an office sky
lobby and is divided into four zones,
which are all served by double-deck
elevators. Zones 1 and 2 can be
reached by 12 direct local elevators
in total, 6 for each zone; whereas
zones 3 and 4 are served by 6 shuttle
elevators. Occupants of zones 3 and
4 have to transfer to local elevators
at the office sky lobby for other
floors. There are in total 6 local
elevators serving zone 3 while 4
serve zone 4.

The designs for the serviced apartment area and hotel area are
similar to zones 3 and 4 of the office area, except that all the
elevators are of single-deck, with elevator transfers made
at the serviced apartment sky lobby and hotel sky lobby,
respectively. Four shuttle elevators serve the serviced apartment
area and hotel area respectively. At the serviced apartment sky
lobby, occupants of the apartment can transfer to 11 local
elevators to reach each floor of serviced apartment. For the
hotel area, four local elevators are available for occupants to
reach the hotel floor and three shuttle elevators would transfer
visitors from the hotel sky lobby to the hotel restaurant at roof
level.
The district where GZCTF is located. A
secondary water-cooled central chiller plant is
also designed in the basement as back-up
facilities for office and podium retail floors.
A remarkable achievement was the
minimization of hydraulic pressure break with
high energy efficiency and reliability. This is
done by assigning a total of three separate
chiller plants to the offices/podiums,
serviced apartments, and hotels (Figure 8).
The challenging part was to optimally locate
the energy centers for enhancing system
reliability, energy efficiency, and to
coordinate with architects and structural
engineers.
A Variable Air Volume (VAV) system will be
used for offices while a Fan Coil Unit (FCU)
system will be installed in serviced apartments
and hotel. To enhance environmental quality,
the design has been aimed to achieve the
following Green awards: LEED® Gold for
offices, retail and hotels; and PRC Green Stars.
One of the methods of attaining the
aforementioned awards was to include
relevant green engineering provisions, such as
high performance building envelope, heat
recovery chillers, air-side free-cooling (office and
ballroom), CO2 fresh air control, water-saving
valves, energy efficient lightings, air-
conditioning condensate collection and reuse,
and wastewater treatment and reuse, etc.
System structure

The tower is made of eight giant steel pipe concrete columns, internal concrete
core tube, with four extension arm truss and 6 ring truss reinforcement layer
structure, so that the structure not only meet the seismic design standards ,
While meeting the needs of architectural functions.
The building's giant and extensor truss
nodes are designed with a penetrating design
to simplify node construction and make
force more direct. In the structural design
stage, engineers spend a lot of thought,
improve and achieve a complex node design.
This technology has won the State Council
awarded the National Science and
Technology Progress Award.

Guangzhou CTF Finance Center


consists of skyscrapers and an
eight-story podium, which is
connected to skyscrapers. This
podium has an atrium 100 feet (30
m) high with a glass roof. The
skyscraper is supported by a square
core with sides 105 feet (32 m) and
eight mega concrete columns on
the sides.
They are connected by outriggers and belt truss, which are located exclusively
on a mechanical and protected floor. The skyscraper has a total of four levels of
steel outriggers and six pairs of double layer trusses belts. The smaller columns
are in between the mega columns. The mega column is up to 16.5 feet (5.0 m)
long and up to 11.5 feet (3.5 m) wide. They are thicker than usual to meet the
Chinese seismic code and they are supported by a mat and pad foundation. This
foundation is in a relatively high bedrock. The facade of a skyscraper is made of
glass and has a vertical mullion, made of white shiny terracotta.
STRUCTURAL MEMBER

Internal Concrete tube : is cast


concrete that is useful to increase
the stiffness of buildings by
carrying the burden with the facade
columns

Extension arm truss : is the


arrangement of the framework
that functions to support the
building to stand perfectly

Facade : the outer side of the


building

Outriggers: Frameworks to
clamping the buildings
Mullion : a vertical bar
between the panes of glass in
a window.

Terracota : unglazed, typically


brownish-red earthenware,
used chiefly as an ornamental
building material and in
modeling.

Belt truss system is one of the lateral


loads resisting system in which the
external columns are tied to the central
core wall with very stiff outriggers and
belt truss at one or more levels. The belt
truss tied the peripheral column of
building while the outriggers engage them
with main or central shear wall. The aim
of this method is to reduce obstructed
space compared to the conventional
method.
