The outside temperatures and wind velocities would also vary by floor level theoretically.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is still being discussed and developed by a group in Chicago.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>
Please send me your views and ideas of how this should be done in an energy program and if you think that the present methods are adequate.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Examples of these bldgs are 828m Burj Khalifa Dubai and 1000m Kingdom Tower Jeddah.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
