List of tallest buildings by height to roof

This list of tallest buildings in the world by height to roof ranks completed skyscrapers by height to roof which reach a height of 350 metres (1,148 ft) or more. Only buildings with continuously occupiable floors are included, thus non-building structures including towers, are not included. Some assessments of the tallest building use 'height to roof' to determine tallest building in the world, as 'architectural feature' is regarded as a subjective and an imprecise comparative measure. However, in November 2009, the CTBUH stopped using the roof height as the metric for tall buildings because modern tall buildings rarely have a part of the building that can categorically be deemed the roof.[1]

The Burj Khalifa in Dubai has been the tallest building with height to roof of 739.44 metres.
