Terminology

edit

Terminological and listing criteria follow Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat definitions. Guyed masts are differentiated from towers – the latter not featuring any guy wires or other support structures; and buildings are differentiated from towers – the former having at least 50% of occupiable floor space although both are self-supporting structures.

Lists by height

edit

These lists include structures with a minimum height of 500 metres (1640 feet). The lists of tallest structures from 400 to 500 metres and from 300 to 400 metres include shorter structures.

For all structures, the pinnacle height is given, so the height of skyscrapers may differ from the values at List of skyscrapers. Tension-leg platforms are not included.
