Specialist Drainage for high-rise

Driven by developments

Because skyscrapers are designed evermore extreme, a single stack soil and waste system offers you the possibility to aim higher. Today, whether a consultant or installer, you need drainage solutions capable of responding to the commercial challenges faced by your clients.

The drive for more:

Space

End users gain more useable space inside the building because the vent pipe is obsolete.

Freedom of design

Architects can create extreme building shapes and go 'sky high' because the unique aspects offer several flexible connection possibilities.

Cost efficiency

Material and installation costs are reduced through low weight, the vent pipe being obsolete and prefabricated pipe segments.

 


The challenge of commercial demands and facts

These particular challenges can only be overcome by a specialist drainage solution. Akatherm helps you meet these demands with confidence.

Akatherm offers more than just a high-rise drainage system. Like every specialist drainage solution from Akatherm, it comes with a comprehensive level of support.

All our systems are backed by dedicated software, full training and unique products, plus the service standards you would expect from high performance drainage experts and the worldwide backing of the Aliaxis group.

Facts

High-rise is the top

A high­-rise building is defined as a structure of minimal 35 meters high, divided into 12 floors.

 

Race to the top

Buildings are more and more increasing in height. The highest residential building in the world, the Q1 tower in Australia, with 80 floors and a height of 323 meters will be small in comparison with future projects. A new record holder is on its way: the "Burj Dubai", with its 160 floors and a total height of 705 meters a true giant.

The top in perspective

Currently there are more than 7,500 high-­rise buildings under construction. After completion there will be more than 100,000 skyscrapers worldwide. All combined they would be more than 13,000 kilometres high!
