Concept 1
Inspiration: Evergreen Forest
In ancient times, Ho Chi Minh Citys original name was Prey Nokor, which in the
local dialect of the epoch bore the meaning of Forest City. This is believed to be
due to its dense and rich evergreen forests at the time. In turn, the word Saigon
also referred to the rich and tall vegetation of Ho Chi Minh City.

In reference to the origins of Ho Chi Minh, the design of the new building embraces
this idea of the emergence of Trees, among the Forest City, which is Ho Chi Minh.

The design of the vertical elements, and elevation expression is reminiscent of the
verticality and truncated juxtaposition of the trees in the forest. The filtrated light
through the tree trunks and branches emanate a sensation of layered, filtered
brightness.

Symbolism of the evergreen trees is notation of Longevity and Sustainability.
Introduction

The SABECO World Trade Center project is a mixed-used complex tower to be
situated along the scenic Saigon River, and facing directly the Me Linh Square with
the Tran Hung Duc statue.

The design program consists of a commercial and entertainment center, with
grade-A international standard offices, a 6-star hotel and high class apartments.

As our design objective we aspire to meet the requirements of fulfilling needs of the
design and providing the best solutions to attain Connectivity and Harmony, Luxury
and Efficiency and achieve in building a new landmark tower at the center of Ho
Chi Minh City center.

As an oasis in the midst of the concrete city, this building stands out as an
architectural hideout amongst the busy streets of Ho Chi Minh City.

The building itself is formed of a configuration of 3 towers. The atrium space is
symbolic of a forest being surrounded by 3 tall trees. The 3 urban trees protect
an area which forms the main atrium of the commercial galleria. This forms an
unexpected urban oasis under the shades of the trinity of towers.

The trickle of light protruding from the slits between the towers are reminiscent of
the beam of light sipping through the tangle of branches and leaves.

The planning of the building masses are the result of a breakdown in scale by
division of the towers. The design takes into consideration the relationship of the
site with the surrounding urban fabric and harmony with the surrounding. The use
of the concepts of the tree and nature also implies consciousness to the
environment and ecology.

The design strives to provide the most glamorous and elegant in design to
befit with the class of the high grade of the facility. Design takes into
consideration the use of durable and high quality materials. At the same
time, displaying richness and stylishness, the design of the spaces uses
natural features to produce dynamic yet comfortable spaces.
Concepts of interior design and landscaping uses natural elements such as
water, trees, greenery, and natural light.

As nature being the main theme of our design, consideration for the
environment is also a prime design element. Eco-friendly recyclable
materials and systems to provide for energy conservation are both
important factors to our design philosophy.

The design of the faade is inspired by tall and dense evergreen trees.

The expression uses metallic vertical louvers as a functional and decorative
element that diminishes in width as it elevates to the top. The density and
opacity of the solid elements become more and more transparent as it
reaches the summit and disappears into the skies.
The tree elements on the faade
function as ventilation vents.

Basic Policy for Structural Design

External forces and design loads are decided according to the local
meteorological data, geography, geotechnical data and use of
buildings. Stress and shear strength of materials will be based on
Building Code of Viet Nam. However design strengths are adjusted
with consideration for quality of materials. Stress analysis and
sectional calculations of frames will be carried out according to
Building Code of Viet Nam

Design Loads and External/Forces

Design loads and external forces are principally calculated following
Building Code of Viet Nam.
Dead Load: The dead loads will be calculated respective to the
weight of materials in each part of the buildings. Live Loads: Live
loads are calculated with reference to TCVN2737 Live Loads and
Impacts- Design Standards of Building Code of Viet Nam.

Wind Loads

Wind loads are calculated following TCVN2737 of Building Code of
Viet Nam, which states the standard wind velocity for each region.
Ho Chi Minh City belongs to IIA region, where the standard wind
pressure is 830 N/m2 for structural design.

Seismic Loads
Almost no earthquake occurrence over magnitude 6 in Richter scale
has been recorded in the vicinity of Ho Chi Minh. Magnitude 6 will be
the design strength of the earthquake.
Introduction of steel pipe friction pile
by rotary injection method

To shorten the length of construction
period and to prevent from noise
obstruction to the neighbors, steel pipe
friction pile by rotary injection method is
used.

During the construction period, by rotary
penetration, the piles are injected to the
bearing layer, in consequence, these
can be removed by bearing rotation.
These piles are recyclable, therefore are
also environmentally friendly.
