The floor plans of East and west wing are quite interesting in their profile. They are actually 3 separate blocks going up to 20th floor and getting connected to the core by just a corridor. The floor plate of the corridor is designed for the moments induced due to the deflections of the different tower. Architecturally also, these corridors present a wonderful site for inhabitants of the building. The Bridge and Structural Engineer
