The lecture discusses about the London stores building and the making of the building. In the beginning, the speaker explained about how the building bends into lanterns city environment. Here the speaker mentioned how top-down construction was used in the buildings, build in the building of the building at least as far as twenty-three fours were consisting the building. And this top-down construction was not an entire new thing. It was previously never used for Skyscra scrapers. New lift shaft was used and that was though the best way to transport materials.

the lecture talks about the shahd, which is the tallest building in london, and has also become a symbol for london. very many new techniques were used while construction of the shahd, especially the use of the top-down approach, which was never used before for building a skyscraper. the shahd has 23 stories, and the use of the top-down approach reduced the construction time by 3 months. there was also a lift which was used for transmitting of people and resources up to the top of the shard. on top of the shard, there is also a structure called the spire which is 300 meters.

Not only this was used for Skyscrappers, but we also see there was some lifts being used for transportation of people and material. There was also a mention of Shattered Glass experience, which was pretty new. And we also see that this was assembled three hundred meters on top of
