The designers of this building (the Burj) had the option of using a steel structure (which has many advantages over other options) a reinforced concrete one and including, may be other options but opted for the reinforced concrete. Which and what could have informed their decision?
Again:-
Given our level of knowledge/understanding of structures, the environment and their behaviours, is it possible to build a structure that will beat the present record holder (the Burj). what and where engineeristically speaking will be our limit vertically. Is it to the sky (like it is said "the sky is the limit")
What is your opinion?
