Structural Systems for Tall Buildings

Structural systems for tall buildings have gone through an evolutionary process. The rigid frame became popular in the first half of 20th century but proved to be structurally inefficient beyond a certain height buildings. invention tubular structure 1960s allowed built taller with low material consumption. Due obstructive nature closely spaced exterior columns framed tubes and bracings braced tubes, core-outrigger system gained acceptance by architects as it them freely articulate façade design. However, conventional structures continued retain their use lesser degree later underwent resurgence modified forms. These other advanced forms cutting-edge structural developed continue find application modern times.
