much the elevators jam? Looks like the original design group didn't get bo gged down in too much math.

ile hole with an instrumented auger, load it with a steel reinforcing cage and then fill with concrete slurry. Then all these piles should be evenly d istributed around the existing concrete frame they have for a foundation.
k. From what I've seen, 70 meters is at the limits of what the auger techno logy can do. At two inches of new lean development every six months, and th is rate of lean is picking up, they don't have much time left. Lean begets more lean because the structure naturally bears down on the lean side with more weight. Look at the equilibrium of moments at the base, that astronomi cal mass acting through that astronomical moment arm, the force imbalances are huge. Then the internal forces on fasteners and beams are probably ines timable. Generally rigid structures can only take minuscule deflections bef ore stuff starts to break, and breaking begets more breaking.
This is structural engineering territory. CE is quite broad, they run stuff like water treatment plants too, but you wouldn't want those guys working on fixing the tower.
