<p>This paper describes the method of structural design of a plate-like ultra high-rise building, taking the Shinjuku Toho Building as an example. In particular the major problems in the structural design of this building are described, namely ensuring safety during earthquakes, ensuring habitability during strong winds, and ensuring the load resistance of the columns that are subject to large axial forces. Also, the test results and performance of an "improved non-scallop method" for beam- column joint are described. Finally the method of structural designing "Godzilla’s Head" is described.</p>

Near Wall

Near-wall microenvironment of a building refers to parameters such as wind speed, temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation near the building’s façade, etc. The distribution of these parameters on the building façade shows a certain variation based on changes in height. As a technology of passive heating and ventilation, the effectiveness of this application on heat collection wall is significantly affected by the near-wall microclimate, which is manifested by the differences, and rules of the thermal process of the components present at different elevations. To explore the feasibility and specificity of this application of heat collection wall in high-rise buildings, this study uses three typical high-rise buildings from Zhengzhou, China, as research buildings. Periodic measurements of the near-wall microclimate during winter and summer were carried out, and the changing rules of vertical and horizontal microclimate were discussed in detail. Later, by combining these measured data with numerical method, thermal process and performance of heat collection wall based on increasing altitude were quantitatively analyzed through numerical calculations, and the optimum scheme for heat collection wall components was summarized to provide a theoretical basis for the structural design of heat-collecting wall in high-rise buildings.

High Rise Building

Experimental wind tunnel test results are affected by acquisition times because extreme pressure peak statistics depend on the length of acquisition records. This is also true for dynamic tests on aeroelastic models where the structural response of the scale model is affected by aerodynamic damping and by random vortex shedding. This paper investigates the acquisition time dependence of linear transformation through singular value decomposition (SVD) and its correlation with floor accelerometric signals acquired during wind tunnel aeroelastic testing of a scale model high-rise building. Particular attention was given to the variability of eigenvectors, singular values and the correlation coefficient for two wind angles and thirteen different wind velocities. The cumulative distribution function of empirical magnitudes was fitted with numerical cumulative density function (CDF). Kolmogorov–Smirnov test results are also discussed.

Building Information

In this works 3D modeling, design and safety management of high rise building using building information modeling (BIM) technology is carried out.. Initially a AutoCAD plan with all its salient features is developed following byelaws of high rise building. Then the 3D modeling and rendering of high rise building is done in the Revit architecture of the 2D plan which is imported from the AutoCAD. The analysis and design of high rise building is carried out using ETabs software. Apart from the structural design Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) services design is carried out using BIM technology . The layout of fire safety system is specified efficiently with use of BIM in co-ordination with MEP services. The application of BIM based design process resulted in considerable time reduction in compression with traditional design process and the holistic design of the high rise building is carried out with the compatibility of different softwares.

Local Space

For many high-rising buildings, large local space is very useful for its special function needs, such as conference hall and hotel lobby. The shake table test results of a high-rising building with large local space show that the dynamic characteristics of such structure are complex and the torsional mode becomes the first mode, while the torsional responses under earthquake excitation, especially of the floor just above the large local space, are very remarkable. In this paper, the bidirectional Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) is employed for reducing the torsional vibration of such complex high-rise building structure. A reduced-scale model is design and constructed. A series of shake table tests are carried out and the test results indicate that the TMD system is very effective in torsional vibration control of structural system.

Efficient Detection

Based on the current methods of damage detection, a new detection damage model was proposed in order to search a more efficient detection method for reinforced concrete high-rise building damage induced by earthquake. This model is based on the regularity of change in the damping ratio of high-rise buildings, and the high order modes, mode participation coefficient and measure method of natural frequency, together with the type of structures, are taken into account in the model. The shaking test results for a model of reinforced concrete high-rise buildings show that the damage detection results based on the proposed model are close to the test results.

And Performance

Hybrid ventilation is an effective approach to reduce cooling energy consumption by combining natural and mechanical ventilation. Previous studies of full-scale whole-building measurements of high-rise hybrid ventilation are quite limited due to the complexities of buildings and variable ambient conditions. As a result, validated and accurate whole-building simulations of hybrid ventilation often cannot be found in the literature. This paper reports a series of full-scale measurements of hybrid ventilation in a 17-storey high-rise building and associated whole-building simulations by 15-zone detailed and a 5-zone simplified multizone models. The paper is one of the first studies of using multizone models and real-world full-scale data and sharing key operational and performance experience and case studies of high-rise hybrid ventilation. Both the test data and the validated simulation models can be used for the comparison and validation of simulation models. The 5-zone simplified model developed from this study was able to model such a complex high-rise building by only a few zones, making possible the on-line model predictive control of a high-rise building. This was illustrated in this paper by an example of optimizing the uniformity of the hybrid ventilation on different floors by modifying inlet areas.

Element Program

The dynamic property of a high-rise building structure and time-history analysis under earthquake were analyzed by using the finite element program ANSYS. A modal analysis of the tower was conducted and the first 20 frequencies and modal shapes were obtained. The displacements and inner force under the earthquake were calculated. The result showed that the structural stiffness was enough to sustain earthquake load; and the stiffness distributed equally. These results can provide reliable basis for structural design.
