This paper compares two methods of mitigating wind induced vibrations in tall modular buildings. Tall buildings experience motion which can result serviceability and habitability issues associated with occupant discomfort. Modular construction, volumetric modules are assembled around a reinforced concrete core, be particularly susceptible to accelerations due the slender form core small uncerta...

A full account of architectural science must include empirical findings about the social and psychological influences that buildings have on their occupants. Tall residential buildings can have a myriad of such effects. This review summarizes the results of research on the influences of high-rise buildings on residents’ experiences of the building, satisfaction, preferences, social behavior, cr...

Values of site factors in numerical simulation can have profound effects on the calculation accuracy. In order to fully understand the performance of rigid-pile composite foundation in tall buildings, this article set up an overall FEA model of a 25-storey frame-tube structure by considering the interaction of superstructure, foundation and ground. Thereafter, a detailed parametric study was pe...
