Jul 26, 2017 at 20:21 | comment | added | Mikey | @colmde - since I worked on the project, lol, the construction cost was much, much, much more than the PD&E cost percentage-wise. But you are correct of course that a second Burj Khalifa would be much cheaper to build due to the lessons learned, etc. | |

A lot of technology is very expensive to build once, but to build again, just a fraction of the cost since the R&D work needs only to be done once. | |
