• The design of the structure was
conceived by architect Rafael Vinoly,
who was inspired by a Trash Can.
• The interiors are designed by Deborah
Berke and the firm Bentel & Bentel.

Residential Apartments begin at
the 34th floor.
The top 6 floors are used for
mechanical equipment.
SERVICES & VERTICAL CIRCULATION
• Scissor stairs saves space, &
creates structural conditions
necessary for the building to
rise to its ideal height.
• In the center of the building we
have a square that consist of
elevator, the stairs, and all the
mechanical services.
• Central core surrounded by
thick walls that are 30 inches
made out of concrete and with
reinforcing inside.
• The core is the backbone of
the structure.
• All services and delivery
accesses are independently
located to the east side of the
tower.

Construction Of Foundation
BUILDING MATERIALS
• The slim and elegant building constructed
using Architectural Steel, Concrete And
Glass.
• The use of Supplementary Cementitious
Materials along with Portland cement
and chemical admixtures achieved Very
High Strength.
White Concrete Columns
Spandrel Beams
10’ X 10’ Curtain Of Glass
Deep cylinders of concrete or
steel (or both) that penetrate
the earth until they reach
either a stable bedrock layer
or there is enough friction on
the sides of the long cylinders
to prevent the building from
sinking and enough depth to
prevent it from toppling in an
earthquake.

5. STRUCTURAL SYSTEM
HIGH RISE BUILDINGS – 432 PARK AVENUE
Mass Damper is to reduce the amplitude of vibration to an acceptable level
whenever a strong lateral force such as an earthquake or high winds hit.
• the tower appears vertically extruded
rectangular form, there are actually several
two-story “void” levels that help provide
stability against lateral forces.
• 432 Park Avenue actually is 6 independent
buildings stacked on top of each other, with
void levels breaking up the massing.
• This increases lateral stability on the tower
with a tuned mass damper at the top of the
tower, and also mitigates the “vortex
shedding” phenomenon that develops in
buildings with 90- degree corners.
• Within the voids, the exposed core of the
tower – curvilinear in form – breaks up the
angular massing of the tower, thus adding
another element of protection against vortex
shedding.
Voids created
after interval of
12 floors
throughout the
building.

Hotel Back
Storage
• 1:15 slenderness ratio of 432 park avenue.
• A flat roof neatly caps the rectangular structure.
• Windows benefit residents with ample amounts of light and
uncontested views.
• The gridded window scheme forms the exoskeleton of the
building and bears structural loads, thus no interior columns are
needed between the elevator core’s shear walls and the façade
of the building.
