Question: What is the worlds tallest building?

List of tallest buildings




This list of tallest buildings includes skyscrapers with continuously occupiable floors and a height of at least 350m. Non-building structures, such as towers, are not included in this list (see list of tallest buildings and structures).
Ranking criteria and alternatives
The international non-profit organization Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) was formed in 1969 and announces the title of "The World's Tallest Building" and sets the standards by which buildings are measured. It maintains a list of the 100 tallest completed buildings in the world.[3] The organization currently ranks Burj Khalifa in Dubai as the tallest at 828m (2,717ft).[3] The CTBUH only recognizes buildings that are complete however, and some buildings included within the lists in this article are not considered finished by the CTBUH.
In 1996, as a response to the dispute as to whether the Petronas Towers or the Sears Tower was taller,[4] the council listed and ranked buildings in four categories:
height to structural or architectural top;
height to floor of highest occupied floor;
height to top of roof (removed as category in November 2009);[5] and
height to top of any part of the building.
Spires are considered integral parts of the architectural design of buildings, to which changes would substantially change the appearance and design of the building, whereas antennas may be added or removed without such consequences. The Petronas Towers, with their spires, are thus ranked higher than the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) with its antennas, despite the Petronas Towers' lower roofs and lower highest point.
Until 1996, the world's tallest building was defined by the height to the top of the tallest architectural element, including spires but not antennae. This led to a rivalry between the Bank of Manhattan Building and the Chrysler Building. The Bank of Manhattan Building (aka 40 Wall Street) employed only a short spire and was  282.5m (927ft) tall and had a much higher top occupied floor (the second category in the 1996 criteria for tallest building). In contrast, the Chrysler Building employed a very large  38.1m (125ft) spire secretly assembled inside the building to claim the title of world's tallest building with a total height of 318.9m (1,046ft), although it had a lower top occupied floor and a shorter height when both buildings' spires were excluded.
Upset by Chrysler's victory, Shreve & Lamb, the consulting architects of the Bank of Manhattan Building, wrote a newspaper article claiming that their building was actually the tallest, since it contained the world's highest usable floor, at 255m (837ft). They pointed out that the observation deck in the Bank of Manhattan Building was nearly 30m (98ft) above the top floor in the Chrysler Building, whose surpassing spire was strictly ornamental and inaccessible.[6]
At present, the Burj Khalifa tops the list by some margin, regardless of which criterion is applied.[7][8]
Tallest buildings in the world

As of 2019, this list includes all 64 buildings (completed and architecturally topped out) which reach a height of 350 metres (1,150ft) or more, as assessed by their highest architectural feature. Of these, 27 (48%) are in China. Six of the last seven buildings to have held the record as 'tallest building' are still found in the list, with the exception being the North Tower of the original World Trade Center at 417 metres (1,368ft) after its destruction in the September 11 attacks of 2001. If the twin towers were still standing today they would occupy numbers 24 and 25 on the list (or 23 and 24 since it can be assumed the rebuilt One World Trade Center would have never been built).

Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is the world's tallest building.
Shanghai Tower in Shanghai, China, is the 2nd tallest building.
The Abraj Al-Bait Towers in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, is the 3rd tallest building.
Ping An Finance Centre, in Guangdong, China, is the 4th tallest building.
Lotte World Tower in Seoul, South Korea, is the 5th tallest building.
One World Trade Center in New York City, is the 6th tallest building and the tallest in the Western Hemisphere.
CTF Finance Centre in Guangzhou, China, is the tied 7th tallest building.
China Zun in Beijing, China, is the 9th tallest building.
Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan, was the world's tallest building from 2004 to 2010; it is now 10th.
The Shanghai World Financial Center is the 11th tallest building.
The Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, were the tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004, and are still the tallest twin buildings.
Willis Tower, formerly Sears Tower, in Chicago, United States, was the tallest building from 1974 to 1998.

Alternative measurements
Height to pinnacle (highest point)

This measurement disregards distinctions between architectural and non-architectural extensions, and simply measures to the highest point. This measurement is useful for air traffic obstacle determinations, and is also a wholly objective measure. However, this measurement includes extensions that are easily added, removed, and modified from a building and are independent of the overall structure.
This measurement only recently came into use, when the Petronas Towers passed the Sears Tower (now called Willis Tower) in height. The former was considered taller because its spires were considered architectural, while the latter's antennae were not. This led to the split of definitions, with the Sears Tower claiming the lead in this and the height-to-roof (now highest occupied floor) categories, and with the Petronas claiming the lead in the architectural height category.  
If the World Trade Center towers were still standing today they would occupy numbers 11 (North Tower at 526.7m (1,728ft))[9] and 31 on the list (or 10 and 30 since it can be assumed the rebuilt One World Trade Center would have never been built).
