Structural design of tall buildings knowledge acquisition study report
A knowledge acquisition study in the domain of tall building design was conducted. Domain experts, five structural engineers and one architect, were interviewed. The experts were asked a set of questions divided into design process and design content questions, and asked to simulate a design scenario. The experts were also shown, and asked to critique, a prototype implementation of a design gra...
متن کاملStructural Design of Reinforced Concrete Tall Buildings: Evolutionary Computation Approach
The paper reports the results of a joint project on evolutionary design of reinforced concrete structures in tall buildings. It has been conducted at the Center for Concrete Structures at the Darmstadt University of Technology in Germany and in the School of Information Technology and Engineering at George Mason University. Its ultimate objective is to revolutionize design of both steel and con...
متن کاملThe Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings
Quasi-static cyclic tests on reinforced concrete (RC) walls have shown that shear deformations can constitute a significant ratio of the total deformations when the wall is loaded beyond the elastic regime. For slender RC walls that form a stable flexural mechanism, the ratio of shear to flexural deformations remains approximately constant over the entire range of imposed displacement ductiliti...
متن کاملEvolutionary Multiobjective Optimization of Steel Structural Systems in Tall Buildings
This paper presents results of extensive computational experiments in which evolutionary multiobjective algorithms were used to find Pareto-optimal solutions to a complex structural design problem. In particular, Strength-Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm 2 (SPEA2) was combined with a mathematical programming method to find optimal designs of steel structural systems in tall buildings with respect ...
متن کاملNatural Ventilation for the Sustainable Tall Office Buildings of the Future
Sustainable tall buildings that provide comfortable, healthy and efficient indoor environments are clearly desirable as the densification of living and working space for the world’s increasing population proceeds. For environmental concerns, these buildings must also be energy efficient. One component of these tasks is the provision of indoor air quality and thermal comfort, which can be enhanc...
