Numerical Case Study

The main objective of this paper is to study feasibility of using ultra-lightweight (ULW) slab as an alternative design solution for floor component used in high-rise buildings. The main method is numerical case study by comparing the structural performances of 60-storey building in which floor component designed using one type of ULW called cross laminated timber (CLT) relative to floor component designed using conventional reinforced concrete (RC) slab using ETABS. The structural performances were compared between the two types of floor system including: total drift, inter-story drift, and base reaction which results in smaller frame sections and less reactions for the foundation demands by using ultra-lightweight (ULW). Additional survey to assess the awareness level of the public and engineering professionals about general high-rise building demand and new alternative building materials such as timber and its potential application in Saudi Arabia was also conducted.

Abstract- Many of high-rise office buildings in Indonesia applies efficiency and effectivity of building form,cost, and time for construction as a number one priority. As a result, high-rise office buildings appears with aminimum-articulated form, and show the dominance by using glass materials as a facade. However, there arealso high-rise office buildings that have an articulated form and its facades that are not dominated by glass,although they appear in small numbers. Wisma Dharmala Sakti Jakarta and Wisma Dharmala Sakti Surabayaare one of them. Moreover, both buildings were designed by foreign architect, Paul Rudolph. Based on thepotentials of both buildings, this research focused on Paul Rudolph’s principles in designing high-rise officebuildings in Wisma Dharmala Sakti Jakarta and Wisma Dharmala Sakti SurabayaLooking at the phenomena of high-rise office buildings in Indonesia as described earlier, this smallnumber and the articulated form of high-rise office buildings designed by Paul Rudolph in Indonesia areinteresting to be understood even more. The main purpose of this research is to reveal the relationship betweenPaul Rudolph’s design principles with buildings, which are Wisma Dharmala Sakti Jakarta and WismaDharmala Sakti Surabaya.Using an interpretative method in a qualitative research, this research utilized theories that helpsunderstanding of an office building, theories that related to Paul Rudolph’s background and common thoughtabout architecture, and also Paul Rudolph’s theory about determinants of architectural form as a literaturestudy. Building’s Anatomy Theory is used as a surgical tool to disect the study cases, which happens to beWisma Dharmala Sakti Jakarta and Wisma Dharmala Sakti Surabaya.Result of this research are six points of Paul Rudolph’s principles in designing high-rise office buildingwhich are: repetition, space, scale, rotation, light, and context. Implementation of Paul Rudolph’s designprinciples in both study cases can be seen in the dominance of rotation and repetition of building elements. Theapplication of these two principles can fulfill all the three aspects of Paul Rudolph’s design ideal, which areform, context, and cycle.Benefit of this research is to enrich architectural vocabulary about design principles of a high-riseoffice buildings in Indonesia for the concerned educational institution, as a consideration and input toarchitects and the stakeholders to be more sensitive and critical in designing high-rise buildings in Indonesia,as a reference and study case about design principles of a high-rise office buildings for students, academics,architects, and the public with the focus of study concerned, and enrich the knowledge about Paul Rudolph’sdesign principles especially in designing high-rise office buildings in Indonesia for researcher.Keywords: Paul Rudolph, Design Principles, Office, Wisma Dharmala Sakti Jakarta, Wisma Dharmala SaktiSurabaya.

Floor System

There is a high-rise building whose main structure is framework - core tube. In order to meet the requirements for architectural features, the distance between the outer frame and the exterior wall of core tube is relatively small, therefore the floor structure program adopts a thick plate and wide flat beam floor system, and part floors of the upper structure adopt a thick plate and dark beam system. As wide flat beams (dark beams) have a small height and cannot form effective support for the floor, special analysis has been made on floors from the security point of view without considering the role of wide flat beams (dark beams). The floor system of this high-rise building has been analyzed and discussed with regard to bearing capacity, deformation, comfort and other aspects.

Abstract: Metaphor is a concept in the field of architecture which is starting to be widely applied in architectural buildings today. Metaphor in architecture can be defined as a figure or expression of a form in the form of a building that can give an impression to people who observe and use it. The concept of metaphorical architecture is divided into three types, namely; 1) Intangible Metaphor, 2) Tangible Metaphor, 3) Combined Metaphor. The concept of metaphorical architecture has been widely applied to several high-rise buildings in the world, but the clarity of the characteristics and application of the concept of metaphorical architecture in high-rise buildings is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to study and understand the characteristics of metaphorical architectural concepts and their application to high-rise buildings. The qualitative descriptive method is used to analyze the case study object. Based on the analysis and discussion of case study objects, it can be concluded that the application of the metaphorical architectural concept in high-rise buildings can be applied to parts of the building, such as crowns of buildings, towers or building bodies, podiums, shape patterns of building masses, building facades and also building materials , which is adapted to the type of architectural metaphor that will be applied. Of the three case study objects examined, each has a different type of metaphor, namely; 1) Menara Wisma BNI 46, Jakarta; Tangible Metaphor, 2) Bank of China Tower; Combined Metaphor, 3) Beekman Tower, New York; Tangible Metaphor.Keywords: Architecture; Metaphor; High-rise Buildings. Abstrak: Metafora merupakan sebuah konsep dalam bidang arsitektur yang mulai banyak diterapkan pada bangunan-bangunan arsitektur saat ini. Metafora dalam arsitektur dapat didefinisikan sebagai sebuah kiasan atau ungkapan suatu bentuk dalam wujud sebuah bangunan yang dapat menimbulkan kesan bagi orang yang mengamati dan menggunakannya. Konsep arsitektur metafora terbagi menjadi tiga jenis, yaitu; 1) Metafora Tak Teraba (Intangible Metaphor), 2) Metafora Teraba (Tangible Metaphor), 3) Metafora Kombinasi (Combained Metaphor). Konsep arsitektur metafora sudah banyak diterapkan pada beberapa bangunan bertingkat tinggi di dunia, namun kejelasan akan ciri-ciri dan penerapan konsep arsitektur metafora pada bangunan bertingkat tinggi tersebut masih belum jelas kepastiannya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji dan memahami ciri-ciri konsep arsitektur metafora serta penerapannya pada bangunan bertingkat tinggi. Metode deskriptif kualitatif digunakan untuk menganalisa objek studi kasus. Berdasarkan analisa dan pembahasan dari objek studi kasus, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan konsep arsitektur metafora pada bangunan bertingkat tinggi dapat diterapkan pada bagian-bagian bangunannya, seperti mahkota bangunan, menara atau badan bangunan, podium, bentuk pola masa bangunan, fasad bangunan dan juga material bangunan, yang disesuaikan dengan jenis arsitektur metafora yang akan diterapkan. Dari ketiga objek studi kasus yang diteliti, masing-masing memiliki jenis metafora yang berbeda, yaitu; 1) Menara Wisma BNI 46, Jakarta; Metafora Teraba (Tangible Metaphor), 2) Bank of China Tower; Metafora Kombinasi (Combained Metaphor), 3) Beekman Tower, New York; Metafora Teraba (Tangible Metaphor).Kata Kunci: Arsitektur, Metafora, Bangunan Bertingkat Tinggi
