In this paper, based on maximizing the outrigger-belt truss system’s strain energy, a methodology for determining the optimum location of an outrigger-belt truss system is presented. Tall building structures with combined systems of framed tube, shear core and outrigger-belt truss system’s are modeled using continuum approach. In this approach, the framed tube system is modeled as a cantilevere...
