From any point of the city, one can see the slender silhouette of the tallest building in Uzbekistan – the Tashkent TV tower. It is located at the highest point of the capital – 486 m above sea level. This is the largest broadcasting centre in the Central Asia, which is a single streamlined technological system, operating around the clock. The system includes the most advanced telecommunication equipment of the world’s leading companies, for the operation of which more than a hundred highly qualified specialists are responsible.

The construction of the Tashkent TV tower was started in 1978, according to the project of architects Y.L. Semashko, N.G. Terziev-Tsarukov and engineers E.P. Morozov, M.D.Musheev.

The construction had been carried out by the specialists of the “Vysotstroy” Trust and the Leningrad Department of General Directorate for the Production and Installation of Steel and Precast Concrete Structures (“Glavstalkonstruktsiya”), as well as by more than 30 construction, installation, commissioning and subcontracting organizations for seven years and was completed in January 1985.

At the end of construction, the height of the television tower became 375 meters, and at that time it was the 4th place in the world in height. Today, occupying an honorable 11th place, the TV tower is part of the World Federation of Great Towers of the World.

Therefore, it is not accidental that the world's tallest TV towers are displayed inside the lower part of the structure, indicating their height and state affiliation.

Our skyscraper is favorably distinguished by several features. It has an interesting engineering and architectural-artistic solution.

The unique decision was made by engineers, taking into account the seismic activity of our region there was created an unusual complex lattice structure

The tower consists of three parts - the central trunk, trellised frame and tripod.

The central trunk, being the main core where the antenna and elevator parts are located, is inserted into the inside of the cylinder (cup) of the hundred-meter tripod. The strut legs of the tripod are embedded in three separate foundations with a diameter of 15 m each.

The foundations of the tower are interconnected by flexible connections - reinforced concrete tapes, on which columns and walls of a technical building are installed.

The metal structures of the tower weighing more than 6000 tons are based on a powerful 11-meter deep foundation.

At the end of construction, the height of the TV tower was 375 meters. At that time, it was the fourth highest tower in the world. Today, the TV tower is part of the World Federation of Great Towers of the World, occupying an honorable 11th place.

Therefore, it is not accidental that the world's tallest TV towers are displayed inside the lower part of the structure, indicating their height and state affiliation.
