    The wind loading on a skyscraper should also be considered. In fact, the lateral wind load imposed on super-tall structures is generally the governing factor in the structural design. Wind pressure increases with height, so for very tall buildings, the loads associated with wind are larger than dead or live loads.

    The top 370m (equivalent to an 85-story building), or 37% of the building's total height, will be unusable. When vanity height is excluded, the height progression of the world's tallest buildings looks much more modest. [4] [5] The CTBUH requires a structure's vanity height to be under 50% to be defined as a "building."
