  Let G be a connected semisimple group over a non-Archimedean local field. For
every faithful, geometrically irreducible linear representation of G we define
a compactification of the associated Bruhat-Tits building X(G). This yields a
finite family of compactifications of X(G) which contains the polyhedral
compactification. Moreover, this family can be regarded as a non-Archimedean
analogue of Satake compactifications for symmetric spaces.
