In this installment of Tall Buildings in Numbers, CTBUH considers how helipads are used on skyscrapers, and which are the highest in the world. The...
Located on the eastern edge of the Kuala Lumpur city limits, the Menara TM is the tallest building within an outlying cluster of high-rises built alongside a juncture of expressways and rail lines. The design was envisioned as a plant springing from the ground to reach light with an unfurling leaf.
Menara TM is perched upon a long horizontal base spreading across the block and extending 3 stories underground. The tower then rises with a central core and two offset office curving office wings. The wings create open courtyards flanking each side of the tower core which support a series of 11 outdoor terraces facing to the southeast and the northwest. As one office wing tops out, a helipad takes over the set back with a large disc shaped cantilever extending outward from the roofline. The second office wing then continues upward to not only crown the building with a distinctive shape, but also to support signage for Menara Telekom who commissioned the building to serve as their corporate headquarters.
