Westermans International, 23 September 2015.

When it comes to architecture and buildings, it’s easy to overlook and forget about just how impressive some structures actually are. From skyscrapers that stand thousands of feet in the air, to buildings that showcase intricate details that look like they’ve been hand-drawn, a building can sometimes be one of the most impressive things to look at.

At the heart of every structure are robust materials, quality workmanship and a lot of hard work and effort throughout the entire process. Although the external appearance will take the accolades and be admired internationally, it’s the work that goes into creating and fabricating the parts that remain unseen that take our interest; from the welding that fuses and holds the metal in place, to the cutting that shapes and gives the metal structures their distinctive appearance.

Every once in awhile something is made that makes people sit up and take note, so we thought we’d take a look at at some of the world’s most impressive structures and see how much material, effort and cost went into making them.
