this is what the system should be i think:
--Class 1 (0-99 meters): "Grade Class"
0-24 meters (1-5 floors) = Grade Level
25-49 meters (5-10 floors) = Lowrise
50-99 meters (10-20 floors) = Midrise
--Class 2 (100-199 meters): "Centi Class"
100-149 meters (20-30 floors) = Highrise (ex. New Yorker Hotel)
150-199 meters (30-40 floors) = Skyscraper (ex. Waldorf-Astoria)
--Class 3 (200-399 meters): "Diacosia Class"
200-299 meters (40-60 floors) = Pretertall (ex. 30 Rockefeller)
300-399 meters (60-80 floors) = Supertall (ex. Chrysler Building)
--Class 4 (400-799 meters): "Tetracosia Class"
400-599 meters (80-120 floors) = Tetratall (ex. 1WTC)
600-799 meters (120-160 stories) = Hexatall (ex. Shanghai Tower)
--Class 5 (800-1599 meters): "Octacosia Class"
800-999 (160-200 stories) = Octotall (ex. Burj Khalifa)
1000-1599 (200-320 stories) = Kilotall (ex. Kingdom Tower)
