          World's Tallest Wooden Tower To Be Built In Australia

          Handout artist’s impression of C6, a 191-metre building in Perth, Australia. Western Australia may soon be home to the world’s tallest wooden building, after authorities in Perth green-lit plans for a 191.2-meter-tall (627-foot) “hybrid” tower constructed using mass timber. If completed, the high-rise will surpass the world’s tallest timber-concrete hybrid building, the Ascent tower in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which stands at 25 stories or 86 meters (284 feet), according to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. The proposed structure, located on Charles Street in South Perth, will also be taller than the forthcoming hybrid timber Atlassian Headquarters in Sydney, which is poised to claim the record from Ascent but is yet to be completed. Like Atlassian, the proposed C6 tower will combine laminated timber beams with a steel exoskeleton to support the the structure. Courtesy Grange Development via ABACAPRESS.COM

The record of the tallest tree in the Chinese mainland has been refreshed several times in the past year or so. Last year in April, a research team led by Peking University found a 76.8-meter tree in Medog County in southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, marking China's tallest tree at the time. The record was broken a month later when an 83.2-meter tree was found in Zayu County. This year in May, the record has been refreshed again, as the giant cypress measuring 102.3 meters was discovered in Bome County in Tibet Autonomous Region. This new discovery even refreshed the Asian record for the tallest tree. All these tall trees share a common feature. They were all discovered within Nyingchi City, specifically in Medog County, Zayu County,
