- 4. STRUCTURAL DETAIL • The tower's trapezoid aperture is made up of structural steel and reinforced concrete. • A large number of forces, such as wind loads, the people in the building and heavy equipment housed in the building, act on the SWFC's structure. • These compressive and bending forces are carried down to the ground by the diagonal-braced frame (with added outrigger trusses). • The design employs an effective use of material, because it decreases the thickness of the outer core shear walls and the weight of the structural steel in the perimeter walls Source, Left side photo: www.Google.com Source, Right Side : https://www.slideshare.net

- 6. • Exhibit Braces and outriggers are used to stabilize and support structures to ensure extra support • The Exhibit and Display Braces are used to stabilize or support a corner span of truss that may need extra strength. • Whereas our Display Booth Outriggers are an angled piece of truss that slopes back or in front of a vertical upright / leg providing the necessary Source, Left side photo: www.Google.com Source, Right Side : https://www.slideshare.net
- 7. • This is an extraordinary building, one that will attract the eye of all in Shanghai. Making use of a composite, steel and concrete mega-structure • While no two floors are identical, considerable repetition is found in the concrete walls and steel framing. • In order to decrease the weight of the building, the majority of that decrease had to be found in a reduction of the thickness of the concrete shear walls of the services core. • This reduction could be achieved only by decreasing the wind- and earthquake-induced lateral forces Source, : www.Google.com
- 8. Column of mega structure • The columns of the mega structure are of mixed structural steel and reinforced concrete • The steel column must be of a size capable of fully transferring the vertical component of the load in the diagonals to the composite columns Source, Left side photo: www.Google.com Source, Right Side : https://www.slideshare.net
- 9. • The steel column only needs to be strong enough to carry the construction load of the steelwork above. HOW TO MAKE BUILDING EARTHQUAKE• RESISTANCE :- • Because of the unusual nature of the structural system, considerable attention was given to resistance to the moving earth. The structure is designed to remain in the elastic mode throughout the life of the building. • Source: https://www.slideshare.net
