1. 11. Global Analysis and design of a complex slanted High-Rise Building with Tube Mega Frame

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : Hamzah Al-Nassrawi; Grigorios Tsamis; [2017]
   Keywords : Tubed Mega Frame; Tall Buildings; Inclined structures; Structural Analysis; ETABs.; Tubed Mega Frame; Höga byggnader; Lutande strukturer; Strukturell analys; ETABS;

   Abstract : The need for tall buildings will increase in the future and new building techniques will emerge to full fill that need. Tyrénshas developed a new structural system called Tube Mega Frame where the major loads are transferred to the ground through big columns located in the perimeter of the building. READ MORE

3. 12. Global analysis of a tubed structural system for an inclined slender tall building

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : LYDIA FOTEINI MARANTOU; PAULINA CHOJNICKA; [2017]
   Keywords : inclined tall building; Tubed Mega Frame; truss system; diagrid; concrete; composite; P-delta;

   Abstract : Building engineering is called upon to keep up with the pace and challenges of modern design, which aims not only to build higher and greener, but also to fulfill the demands of the growing population and simple human curiosity. The main purpose of this study was to examine the global behavior of a slender and inclined (V-shaped) 300 m high rise building with different structural systems applied. READ MORE

4. 13. Evaluation of a high-rise building for passive house classifications in PHPP : Simulation and optimization of energy efficiency measures for residential high-rise buildings in different climates

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

   Author : Nils Lundberg; [2016]
   Keywords : EE-Highrise; Energy Efficiency; PHPP;

   Abstract : This thesis is a part of the major EU project EE-Highrise which is a part of the European 7th Framework Research Program (FP7-ENERGY). In order to demonstrate and test new technologies and concepts, a demo building has been constructed in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. READ MORE

5. 14. Structural design of high-rise buildings

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : Erik Hallebrand; Wilhelm Jakobsson; [2016]
   Keywords : High-rise buildings; resonance frequencies; accelerations; shear flow; displacements; critical buckling load; finite element.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : High-rise buildings are exposed to both static and dynamic loads. Depending on the method used and how the structure is modelled in finite element software the results can vary. Some of the issues and modelling techniques, introduced below, are investigated in this Master’s thesis. READ MORE

6. 15. Methodology for preliminary design of high-rise buildings

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper
