Produktbeschreibung

-Addresses the need for design guidelines, based around the role and impact of outrigger systems in tall buildings -Written by CTBUH, experts in tall building technologies >The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat's Outrigger Working Group has addressed the pressing need for design guidelines for outrigger systems with this guide, now in its second edition, providing a comprehensive overview of the use of outriggers in skyscrapers. This guide offers detailed recommendations for analysis of outriggers within the lateral load resisting systems of tall buildings, for recognising and addressing effects on building behaviour and for practical design solutions. It also highlights concerns specific to the outrigger structural system, such as differential column shortening and construction sequence impacts. In this edition, a new chapter explores the use of 'hybrid' outrigger systems that can 'tune' the stiffness of outrigger trusses, use leverage of the outrigger arms to drive non-linear damping devices, and use yielding materials that absorb seismic energy. Several project examples are explored in depth, illustrating the role of outrigger systems in tall building designs and providing ideas for future projects. The guide details the impact of outrigger systems on tall building designs, and demonstrates ways in which the technology is continuously advancing to improve the efficiency and stability of tall buildings around the world. The new second edition features updated design considerations to reflect current practices, expanded systems organisation and examples, and updated recommendations and suggestions for future research.

Autorenporträt

Hi Sun Choi is a Senior Principal at Thornton Tomasetti and has approximately 20 years of experience in structural analysis, investigation, design, and review of a variety of building types, including commercial and residential buildings. Her expertise includes the design of supertall buildings for seismic risk assessment, building motion due to wind, performance-based design, and waterfront developments on reclaimed land. Goman Ho is a Director at Arup. He joined Arup in 1992 after his postgraduate study. He has been significantly involved in a large number of tall building and long span projects, from analysis and design to construction. His research interests include stability and nonlinear transient analysis. He is the past president of the ASCE Hong Kong, current fellow member of the HKISC, and editor of the International Journal of Advanced Steel Construction. Leonard Joseph With more than 35 years of experience, Leonard Joseph has analyzed, designed, and reviewed high-rise buildings, sports facilities, hangars, hotels, historic buildings, manufacturing facilities, and parking garages. He works with a wide variety of materials, including structural steel, reinforced concrete, precast and posttensioned concrete, masonry, wood, and light gage framing. For buildings around the world, Len deals with seismic, wind, and other environmental hazards, and incorporates local construction practices into his designs. Neville Mathias is an Associate Director and Senior Structural Engineer with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, LLP. He has worked extensively on the structural design of major buildings across California and around the world for the past 26 years. He specializes in the seismic design of non-prescriptive buildings using performance based, non-linear methodologies.
