Description

Egypt has proposed a 1,000 meter skyscraper that could surpass the Burj Khalifa and become one of the tallest structures ever planned. This video explores the engineering challenges, extreme wind loads, foundations, concrete pumping, elevators, funding problems, and regional competition behind the proposed Oblisco Capital tower. The project has not yet broken ground, while Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah Tower is already under construction and targeting a height beyond 1,000 meters. The video examines whether Egypt can secure the funding and overcome the engineering challenges before another megaproject takes the record. ✨ 𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐚 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐬✨ https://www.youtube.com/@UCkWQEhTxV2lg_YM31qnk-IQ 🍁 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐚 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐬🍁 Welcome to Giga Builds, where we explore the world’s most incredible construction projects, mega structures, and engineering achievements.
