  1. 6. Low slope roofs : Moisture transfer in inverted roofs constantly exposed to high moisture loads and drainage systems

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsteknik

    Author : Charalampos Antonopoulos; [2017]
    Keywords : inverted roofs; green roofs; corrosion; corrosion protection; paint coatings; drainage; horizontal valleys; drains; overflows;

    Abstract : Low slope roofs are roofs with an inclination between 1:16 and 1:4 and have been constructed and preferred for many years due to the benefits they present. The goal of the present work is to study the following problems of low slope roofs, as they are suggested by previous relevant theses and the current needs of the market. READ MORE

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

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    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

  4. 8. 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

  6. 10. Analysis of Tripod shaped high rise building using Tubed Mega Frame structures

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Sujan Kumar Rimal; Levi Grennvall; [2017]
    Keywords : high-rise building; inclined; slanted; tubed mega frame; tripode; höghus; vinklad; lutande; tubed mega frame; trefot;

    Abstract : Most of the tall buildings that are built today have a straight and vertical shape, because vertical buildings are more stable and easily built than slanted ones. In the case of vertical building, bending moments in the base only exists from horizontal loads such as wind and seismic loads, but in slanted buildings there will also be bending moments from dead and live loads.
