current innovative lateral load carrying systems for tall buildings are those in which the lateral drift is limited to an allowable value without considerable influence on economy. this aim is achieved by using special systems capable of using maximum stiffness and strength capacity of individual structural elements. an effective structural solution in this respect is the use of outrigger brace...

abstract shah jahan, based on structural zone is located in south of kapedagh and in eastern side of aladagh mountains in 37◦ till 37◦25' northern latitude and 57◦30' till 58◦30' eastern longitude of northeastern part of iran. geomorphologic and tectonic elements show that this area is partly young and mountains can be affected highly by geomorphologic and hydrologic elem...
