[edit] Summary

This diagram shows height to tip of the tallest structural elements in each building. If measured from the ground to the highest attached component, the Sears Tower is the tallest in the world, but as the antennas are not actually structural; they aren't considered part of the building, and the Sears Tower building itself is shorter than Taipei 101 and the Petronas Towers. Using the method of ranking heights which counts decorative spires but not antennas, the tallest towers go in order from Taipei 101, Petronas Towers, and then the Sears Tower followed by the Jin Mao Tower. Sears tower has the most floors at 110, and has a higher roof than the roof of the Petronas Towers.
