Jin Mao Tower is a commercial skyscraper built by architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. The building, constructed primarily of steel, concrete, and glass, is a contemporary play on Chinese culture. Jin Mao Tower's structure relies heavily on the number eight, with 88 floors, eight steel columns, etc. The number eight in Chinese numerology is often associated with prosperity. These structural elements are not limited to cultural heritage, however. They also prevent natural disasters. The pagoda structure allows the building to withstand typhoons and earthquakes, similar to other contemporary skyscrapers.
