Oh, what a lovely place the Palace of Versailles is! It was built in the 17th century by King Louis XIV of France. The palace is known for its stunning architecture, beautiful gardens, and rich history.

What is the tallest building in Edinburgh?

The tallest building in Edinburgh is St Mary's Episcopal Cathedral, with a height of 71.7 meters (235 ft). However, if you're referring to a skyscraper or a residential/commercial building, the tallest one is The Landmark Edinburgh Tower, with a height of 67.3 meters (221 ft). [7]

Here are some key points to note about the tallest buildings in Edinburgh:

There are other notable tall buildings in Edinburgh, such as The Hub, which has a height of 71.7 meters (235 ft) and is a prominent landmark in the city. [5

The Canadarm was developed by the National Research Council of Canada in collaboration with Canadian industry partners such as Spar Aerospace and the Canadian Space Agency. It was designed and built in Canada for use on NASA's Space Shuttle fleet.

If you are referring to the incoming utility service, that would be mandated by the Authority having Jurisdiction {City, County, utility co., etc....}. Here it is required for services 1200amps and above. If your running the power distribution through out the building and the choice has not been made by the engineers leaving it up to the contractor, then cost is the objective. Bus duct is preferred when using continuous high loads where heat is a factor. Bus duct relies on open venting and air circulation to maintain it's integrity. In that if your load is 300amp factoring the 80% rule you can run 400amp bus duct without needing to enlarge for heat. In conduit the wire size is enlarged to augment the heat build up inside the pipe. Depending on the distance of the run and the amount of conductors will determine how much heat can build up as well as the amount of open room inside the pipe for air to maintain temperatures. To answer in general bus duct is the preferred method, but in most circumstances not always the economical decision due to the amount of labor to install and the cost of the Bus Duct Assembly {Inc. parts and hardware}. Also if bus duct is used clearances must be factored into the engineering of the building structure for air circulation, safety to person and property, and accessibility for maintenance or troubles. It is a hard sell if the bus duct is not specified by the authority having jurisdiction.

it took them 128 years because they started at 1844.

You can know if your building is earthquake-resistant by checking if it was constructed following seismic building codes, using flexible materials, and having proper structural reinforcements like shear walls and braces. An evaluation by a structural engineer can also determine the building's earthquake resistance through a seismic assessment. Regular maintenance and retrofitting can help improve a building's earthquake resilience over time.

The Skylon Tower in Niagara Falls, Canada is a tall, cylindrical structure with a rotating observation deck at the top. It offers panoramic views of Niagara Falls and the surrounding area.

They aren't. Most all are white. They might have a red light on the top, but the lights they put out to sea are always white, and sometimes rotate to other colors such as red or green. In any of these designs an observer, rather than seeing a continuous weak light, sees a brighter light during short time intervals. These instances of bright light are arranged to create a light characteristic, or pattern specific to the particular lighthouse. For example, for the Scheveningen lighthouse, time intervals between flashes are alternately 2.5 and 7.5 seconds. Some lights have sectors of a particular color (usually formed by colored panes in the lantern) to distinguish safe water areas from dangerous shoals. Modern lighthouses often have unique reflectors or Racon transponders so the radar signature of the light is also unique.

One foot-candle is equal to the illumination produced by one candle from a distance of one foot away. It is a measure of illuminance used in lighting design and is equivalent to 10.76 lux in the metric system.

The construction of Skylon Tower began at May 1964 and it was officially opened around October 1965 so roughly it took 17 months or 1 year and 5 months to finish the tower.

The observation deck is 520 feet above the ground level.

The tallest redwood tree in the world is Hyperion, with an estimated height of over 380 feet (115.85 meters). It is located in a remote area of Redwood National Park in California.

The Space Needle in Seattle is 184 meters tall.

the tallest building i dont know but the tallest structure in history is in my rapppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppe pants

The Great Barrier Reef is a natural construction that can be seen from space.

I think you mean non-natural, and that would be the Great Wall of China, I think. but I'll answer the question as posted: You can see the oceans from the moon, and the continents, and clouds.

no building can be seen by outer space that's impossible

The Sky Tower is taller than the Eureka tower and i know because i have just been on a school trip to the Sky Tower.

The antennas on the top of the Sears Tower were built to transmit television and radio signals. Being located at a height of over 1,450 feet, the antennas on the tower provide better signal reception and transmission capabilities due to less interference and higher line of sight.

It took about 4 years to build it, from the groundbreaking in 1994 to the opening ceremony on 3rd March 1997.

It cost over 9,000 or so dollars to build it.

Weathering can cause physical and chemical deterioration of building materials over time. For example, exposure to rain, wind, and temperature changes can lead to cracks, erosion, and discoloration. Chemical reactions from pollutants in the air can also weaken or corrode building materials.

Weathering can weaken building materials such as concrete, brick, and stone over time. Exposure to wind, rain, temperature fluctuations, and other elements can cause cracks, erosion, fading of paint, and deterioration of surfaces. This can lead to structural damage and the need for repairs or maintenance to prevent further degradation.

Earthquake proof buildings are not common worldwide due to the high costs associated with their construction. In areas with frequent earthquakes, like Japan and California, there is more incentive to invest in earthquake resistant technology. Additionally, building codes and regulations in these regions often require construction to meet certain seismic standards.

In a way, Yes. A triangle is a very strong shape, and any force that is set onto it is usually dealt with. But it wouldn't be practical. Earthquake proof houses usually have strong foundations, or are made to move with the land when an earthquake occurs. So, it would be okay, but in a sentence, it wouldn't be very nice to live in, imagine the size of the attic. :3

Pacific tower it is 86 meters tall then following badly damaged hotel Grand Chamcellor at 85 metros

The Holiday Inn Ajara (Adjara) Hotel and Business Complex is currently the tallest building in Tbilisi.
