A Macro-element Based Practical Model for Seismic Analysis of Steel-Concrete Composite High-Rise Buildings
Seismic behaviour of steel-concrete composite high-rise buildings, composed of external steel frames (SF) and internal concrete tube (CT), with rectangular plan is investigated in this paper. A macro-element based model is established for seismic analysis of composite high-rise buildings aiming at predicting their global responses under earthquakes. By employing this macro-element based model, ...
متن کاملCOST ESTIMATION OF HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE (HPC) HIGH- RISE COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS BY NEURAL NETWORKS High-rise commercial buildings
Neural network approach is applied to establish relationships between the quantities/cost of the concrete/formwork, which is required for the structural elements of tall buildings using high performance concrete (HPC), and the design variables. Hybrid and hierarchical strategies are proposed for the cost estimation, where the feed-forward networks are adopted. After training, the neural network...
متن کاملSpace Efficiency in High-rise Office Buildings
“Given the high land values in central business sections of our leading cities, the skyscraper is not only the most efficient, but the only economic utilization of certain strategic plots. An exhaustive investigation... has conclusively demonstrated that the factors making for diminishing returns in the intensive development of such plots are more than offset by the factors making for increasin...
متن کاملAdvantages and Limitations of Precast Concrete Construction in High-rise Buildings: Hong Kong Case Studies
The Hong Kong construction industry heavily relies on conventional cast insitu construction involving extensive use of wet trades and on-site construction processes. The construction activities have been described as “labour intensive, dangerous and polluting”. Recently, the use of prefabrication has increased in the building industry. This paper presents the preliminary findings of an ongoing ...
متن کاملParametric Energy Analysis in Early Stage Design: Case of High-rise Office Buildings in Tehran
Nowadays, the high rates of energy consumption of buildings in contemporary societies, as well as in global problematics such as climate change, depletion of natural resources and environmental pollution, is widely recognized. In this context, energy efficiency of buildings has become a crucial aspect of national and international energy policies. Nevertheless, the design of high performance bu...
