Definition of High-rise

A tall building is not defined by its height or number of stories. It is the building in which “tallness” strongly influences planning, Designing and use. It is a building whose height creates different conditions in design, construction and operation from those that exist in “common” buildings of a certain region and period.

A high-rise structure is considered to be one extends higher than the maximum reach of available fire fighting equipment in absolute numbers, This has been set variously between 75-100 ft.

Heights

Skyscraper evolved in two different urban environment • Chicago (Banking, Finance) • New York (Commercial activities clustered around broadways)

These factors served as the setting for cast-iron framed structures which augured the skyscrapers

External Loads Wind Load • Direct pressure • Suction • Drag Seismic Load • Inertial force Effects of lateral loads • P -Delta Effect • Overturning Moment • Vortex Shedding

Ref. : Building Structure Illustrated by Francis DK Ching, Barry S. Onouye, Douglas Zberbuhler High-rise security and fire life safety by Geoff Craighead

Direct Pressure

Direct Pressure

Received by building surfaces perpendicular to wind’s path(windward direction) Suction

Side and leeward building surfaces, as well as windward roof surfaces having a slope of less that 30 ° This results in negative pressure which may result in roofing or cladding failure

Suction

Drag Generated on the surfaces parallel to the windward direction Drag

In contrast to vertical gravity loads, the effect of lateral loads on buildings are not linear and intensify rapidly with increase in height

P DELTA EFFECT When gravity load is displaced laterally by a distance (delta) due to wind, seismic, or balanced gravity loads, it generates forces and additional deflections throughout the structure added deflection generate further p delta effect.

OVERTURNING MOMENT Any lateral load applied at a distance above grade generates an overturning moment at the base of a structure. For equilibrium , the overturning moment and an internal resisting moment provided by forces developed in columns members and shear walls

Lateral Loads P = KV² P= Pressure K= coefficient of wind V = velocity of wind K= 0.006 for conventional rectangular building

VORTEX SHEDDING

In fluid dynamics, vortex shedding is an oscillating flow that takes place when a fluid such as air or water flows past a cylindrical body at certain velocities, depending on the size and shape of the body. In this flow, vortices are created at the back of the body and detach periodically from either side of the body.

Wind Tunnel test • Determine the nature and intensity of wind forces acting on the structure • Model of scale 1:100 or 1:200 or 1:400 • For model of 1:400, wind speed in tunnel and full scale wind of 1:3 is chosen.

• This results in time scale of 1:133 • To limit damage to the cladding on the building façade and to partitions and interior finishes.

• To reduce effect of motion perceptibility.

• To limit the P- delta effect.

OUTRIGGER SYSTEM • Generally in form of steel truss or reinforced concrete or composite.

• Tied to the core and combined with exterior columns • Reduce overturning moment and lateral shift • Under load shear core tend to bend and the out rigger act as lever arm • Use at different levels: create mechanical floors

BELT TRUSS SYSTEM • • • •

Placed on exterior wall panels Strong and stiff subsystem Reduce the shear lag Entire story depth can be used to construct mechanical floor • It distributes loads equally on exterior columns

TYPES OF BRACINGS. A typical column and beam frame is assumed To be joined with pin or hinged connections, Which can potentially resist applied vertical loads.

Four hinged quadrilateral is inherently unstable, However, and would be unable to resist a laterally Applied load.

K bracing consist of two diagonal braces that meet near the Midpoint of vertical frame member. Each diagonal member Can be subject to either tension or compression, depending On lateral force acting on the frame.

V bracing consist of diagonal braces that meet near the midpoint Of horizontal frame member .

The additional of diagonal bracing system Would provide the requisite lateral stability To the frame.

Chevron bracing is similar to V bracing but its orientation Allows for passage through the space below the inverted V. Knee braces used in pairs to resist the lateral forces From either directions.

Diagonal bracing consists a pair of diagonals. A certain degree of redundancy is achieved If each diagonal alone is capable of stabilizing the frame.

Single diagonal braces: able to handle both tension and compression.

Diagonal tension counter systems consist of cable or rods that Work primarily in tension. A pair of cables or rods is always necessary to Stabilize the frame against lateral forces from either directions. For each force direction, one cable of road will operate effectively in Tension while the other becomes slack and it assumed to carry no load.

ECCENTRICALLY BRACED FRAMES •

Eccentrically braced frames may also be designed to control frame deformations and minimize damage to architectural elements during cyclical seismic load.

•

Steel is ideal material for braces frames because of its ductility- the capacity to deform without fractures combined with its high strength.

•

The link beam absorb energy from seismic activity through plastic deformations of other members.

•

Eccentrically braced frames are generally placed in the exterior wall planes of a structure but are also sometimes used to brace steel frame cores.

BRACED FRAME SRUCTURE

• Vertical truss: resist lateral loads • K,V,X members eliminating bending under lateral loading.

• Column girder and diagonal bracing are connected by pin joints.

• Fabrication is more economical than other moment resisting connection in rigid framed structure

• John Hancock building, chicago

BRACED FRAME SRUCTURE WITH SHEAR CORE • Shear walls: To resist the lateral load caused by wind & earthquake • Relatively thin: height/width • The assembly of shear walls is known as “coupled shear wall” • Belt trusses distribute the tensile and compressive force to the large no. of exterior trusses

BRACED CORE STRUCTURE: • • •

Shear Resisting core Minimized possibility of torsion due to lateral load May contain one or more cores Connected by outriggers to provide column free space

• Out rigger generally form of steel trusses or reinforced concrete • connect core to the peripheral columns, reduce the overturning moment and lateral drift in the building.

TUBE STRUCTURE: • • •

Utilize entire building to resist lateral loads.

Outer frame: closely spaced columns rigidly connected to deep spandrel beams.

Loads are transferred by external frame

Exterior column spacing 5ft to 15 ft (1.5 m-4.5 m) Spandrel beam depth 24 in-48 inch (600-1200mm)

Shear lag reduced by use of belt truss placed on exterior wall panels.

Belt truss used to equalize tension and compression forces due to shear lag.

BUNDLED TUBE STRUCTURE: • • • • • •

Cluster of individual tubes tied together to act as a single unit framed tubes are bundled at the base and terminates at different levels, without loss of structural integrity Single tube : height restriction – slenderness ratio Height efficiency : 110 story Advantage: flexibility of organizing floor areas Individual tube can be of any shape rectangular, triangular, hexagonal
