Course description
Definition, emergence and historical background of tall buildings. Planning and design considerations. Lateral loads; wind and earthquake effects; aerodynamic modifications against wind. Steel, reinforced concrete and composite tall buildings. Structural systems used in architectural design of tall buildings; frame systems, braced frame and shear walled frame systems, outrigger systems, framed-tube systems, braced-tube and bundled tube systems. Tall buildings with iconic forms. The course is conducted through lectures, case studies and discussions and aims the student to realize that the design of tall buildings starts with the architect and requires high level of interdisciplinary approach.
The
purpose of this course is to create basic design guidance for tall buildings as
a resource for architects, engineers, developers, and students. It aims to make
a contribution to and strengthen the participant’s understanding of tall
building design, by providing a broad overview of the “tall building” with its
general concepts and structural systems.
