1、Structural Systems to resist lateral loadsCommonly Used structural SystemsWith loads measured in tens of thousands kips, there is little room in the design of high-rise buildings for excessively complex thoughts. Indeed, the better high-rise buildings carry the universal traits of simplicity of thou

2、ght and clarity of expression.It does not follow that there is no room for grand thoughts. Indeed, it is with such grand thoughts that the new family of high-rise buildings has evolved. Perhaps more important, the new concepts of but a few years ago have become commonplace in today s technology.Omit

3、ting some concepts that are related strictly to the materials of construction, the most commonly used structural systems used in high-rise buildings can be categorized as follows:1. Moment-resisting frames.2. Braced frames, including eccentrically braced frames.3. Shear walls, including steel plate

4、shear walls.4. Tube-in-tube structures.5. Tube-in-tube structures.6. Core-interactive structures.7. Cellular or bundled-tube systems.Particularly with the recent trend toward more complex forms, but in response also to the need for increased stiffness to resist the forces from wind and earthquake, m

5、ost high-rise buildings have structural systems built up of combinations of frames, braced bents, shear walls, and related systems. Further, for the taller buildings, the majorities are composed of interactive elements in three-dimensional arrays.The method of combining these elements is the very es

6、sence of the design process for high-rise buildings. These combinations need evolve in response to environmental, functional, and cost considerations so as to provide efficient structures that provoke the architectural development to new heights. This is not to say that imaginative structural design

7、 can create great architecture. To the contrary, many examples of fine architecture have been created with only moderate support from the structural engineer, while only fine structure, not great architecture, can be developed without the genius and the leadership of a talented architect. In any eve

8、nt, the best of both is needed to formulate a truly extraordinary design of a high-rise building.While comprehensive discussions of these seven systems are generally available in the literature, further discussion is warranted here .The essence of the design process is distributed throughout the dis

9、cussion.Moment-Resisting FramesPerhaps the most commonly used system in low-to medium-rise buildings, the moment-resisting frame, is characterized by linear horizontal and vertical members connected essentially rigidly at their joints. Such frames are used as a stand-alone system or in combination w

10、ith other systems so as to provide the needed resistance to horizontal loads. In the taller of high-rise buildings, the system is likely to be found inappropriate for a stand-alone system, this because of the difficulty in mobilizing sufficient stiffness under lateral forces. Analysis can be accompl

11、ished by STRESS, STRUDL, or a host of other appropriate computer programs; analysis by the so-called portal method of the cantilever method has no place in todays technology.Because of the intrinsic flexibility of the column/girder intersection, and because preliminary designs should aim to highligh

12、t weaknesses of systems, it is not unusual to use center-to-center dimensions for the frame in the preliminary analysis. Of course, in the latter phases of design, a realistic appraisal in-joint deformation is essential.Braced FramesThe braced frame, intrinsically stiffer than the moment resisting f

13、rame, finds also greater application to higher-rise buildings. The system is characterized by linear horizontal, vertical, and diagonal members, connected simply or rigidly at their joints. It is used commonly in conjunction with other systems for taller buildings and as a stand-alone system in low-

14、to medium-rise buildings.While the use of structural steel in braced frames is common, concrete frames are more likely to be of the larger-scale variety.Of special interest in areas of high seismicity is the use of the eccentric braced frame.Again, analysis can be by STRESS, STRUDL, or any one of a

15、series of two or three dimensional analysis computer programs. And again, center-to-center dimensions are used commonly in the preliminary analysis.Shear wallsThe shear wall is yet another step forward along a progression of ever-stiffer structural systems. The system is characterized by relatively

16、thin, generally (but not always) concrete elements that provide both structural strength and separation between building functions.In high-rise buildings, shear wall systems tend to have a relatively high aspect ratio, that is, their height tends to be large compared to their width. Lacking tension

17、in the foundation system, any structural element is limited in its ability to resist overturning moment by the width of the system and by the gravity load supported by the element. Limited to a narrow overturning, One obvious use of the system, which does have the needed width, is in the exterior wa

18、lls of building, where the requirement for windows is kept small.Structural steel shear walls, generally stiffened against buckling by a concrete overlay, have found application where shear loads are high. The system, intrinsically more economical than steel bracing, is particularly effective in car

19、rying shear loads down through the taller floors in the areas immediately above grade. The sys tem has the further advantage of having high ductility a feature of particular importance in areas of high seismicity.The analysis of shear wall systems is made complex because of the inevitable presence o

20、f large openings through these walls. Preliminary analysis can be by truss-analogy, by the finite element method, or by making use of a proprietary computer program designed to consider the interaction, or coupling, of shear walls.Framed or Braced TubesThe concept of the framed or braced or braced t

21、ube erupted into the technology with the IBM Building in Pittsburgh, but was followed immediately with the twin 110-story towers of the World Trade Center, New York and a number of other buildings .The system is characterized by three dimensional frames, braced frames, or shear walls, forming a clos

22、ed surface more or less cylindrical in nature, but of nearly any plan configuration. Because those columns that resist lateral forces are placed as far as possible from the cancroids of the system, the overall moment of inertia is increased and stiffness is very high.The analysis of tubular structur

23、es is done using three-dimensional concepts, or by two- dimensional analogy, where possible, whichever method is used, it must be capable of accounting for the effects of shear lag.The presence of shear lag, detected first in aircraft structures, is a serious limitation in the stiffness of framed tu

24、bes. The concept has limited recent applications of framed tubes to the shear of 60 stories. Designers have developed various techniques for reducing the effects of shear lag, most noticeably the use of belt trusses. This system finds application in buildings perhaps 40stories and higher. However, e

25、xcept for possible aesthetic considerations, belt trusses interfere with nearly every building function associated with the outside wall; the trusses are placed often at mechanical floors, mush to the disapproval of the designers of the mechanical systems. Nevertheless, as a cost-effective structura

26、l system, the belt truss works well and will likely find continued approval from designers. Numerous studies have sought to optimize the location of these trusses, with the optimum location very dependent on the number of trusses provided. Experience would indicate, however, that the location of the

27、se trusses is provided by the optimization of mechanical systems and by aesthetic considerations, as the economics of the structural system is not highly sensitive to belt truss location.Tube-in-Tube StructuresThe tubular framing system mobilizes every column in the exterior wall in resisting over-t

28、urning and shearing forces. The termtube-in-tubeis largely self-explanatory in that a second ring of columns, the ring surrounding the central service core of the building, is used as an inner framed or braced tube. The purpose of the second tube is to increase resistance to over turning and to incr

29、ease lateral stiffness. The tubes need not be of the same character; that is, one tube could be framed, while the other could be braced.In considering this system, is important to understand clearly the difference between the shear and the flexural components of deflection, the terms being taken fro

30、m beam analogy. In a framed tube, the shear component of deflection is associated with the bending deformation of columns and girders (i.e, the webs of the framed tube) while the flexural component is associated with the axial shortening and lengthening of columns (i.e, the flanges of the framed tub

31、e). In a braced tube, the shear component of deflection is associated with the axial deformation of diagonals while the flexural component of deflection is associated with the axial shortening and lengthening of columns.Following beam analogy, if plane surfaces remain plane (i.e, the floor slabs),th

32、en axial stresses in the columns of the outer tube, being farther form the neutral axis, will be substantially larger than the axial stresses in the inner tube. However, in the tube-in-tube design, when optimized, the axial stresses in the inner ring of columns may be as high, or even higher, than t

33、he axial stresses in the outer ring. This seeming anomaly is associated with differences in the shearing component of stiffness between the two systems. This is easiest to under-stand where the inner tube is conceived as a braced (i.e, shear-stiff) tube while the outer tube is conceived as a framed

34、(i.e, shear-flexible) tube.Core Interactive StructuresCore interactive structures are a special case of a tube-in-tube wherein the two tubes are coupled together with some form of three-dimensional space frame. Indeed, the system is used often wherein the shear stiffness of the outer tube is zero. T

35、he United States Steel Building, Pittsburgh, illustrates the system very well. Here, the inner tube is a braced frame, the outer tube has no shear stiffness, and the two systems are coupled if they were considered as systems passing in a straight line from the “hat” structure. Note that the exterior

36、 columns would be improperly modeled if they were considered as systems passing in a straight line from the “hat” to the foundations; these columns are perhaps 15% stiffer as they follow the elastic curve of the braced core. Note also that the axial forces associated with the lateral forces in the i

37、nner columns change from tension to compression over the height of the tube, with the inflection point at about 5/8 of the height of the tube. The outer columns, of course, carry the same axial force under lateral load for the full height of the columns because the columns because the shear stiffnes

38、s of the system is close to zero. The space structures of outrigger girders or trusses, that connect the inner tube to the outer tube, are located often at several levels in the building. The AT&T headquarters is an example of an astonishing array of interactive elements:1. The structural system

39、 is 94 ft (28.6m) wide, 196ft(59.7m) long, and 601ft (183.3m) high.2. Two inner tubes are provided, each 31ft(9.4m) by 40 ft (12.2m), centered 90 ft (27.4m) apart in the long direction of the building.3. The inner tubes are braced in the short direction, but with zero shear stiffness in the long dir

40、ection.4. A single outer tube is supplied, which encircles the building perimeter.5. The outer tube is a moment-resisting frame, but with zero shear stiffness for the center50ft (15.2m) of each of the long sides.6. A space-truss hat structure is provided at the top of the building.7. A similar space

41、 truss is located near the bottom of the building8. The entire assembly is laterally supported at the base on twin steel-plate tubes, because the shear stiffness of the outer tube goes to zero at the base of the building.Cellular structuresA classic example of a cellular structure is the Sears Tower

42、, Chicago, a bundled tube structure of nine separate tubes. While the Sears Tower contains nine nearly identical tubes, the basic structural system has special application for buildings of irregular shape, as the several tubes need not be similar in plan shape, It is not uncommon that some of the in

43、dividual tubes one of the strengths and one of the weaknesses of the system.This special weakness of this system, particularly in framed tubes, has to do with the concept of differential column shortening. The shortening of a column under load is given by the expression=fL/EFor buildings of 12 ft (3

44、.66m) floor-to-floor distances and an average compressive stress of 15 ksi (138MPa), the shortening of a column under load is 15 (12)(12)/29,000 or 0.074in (1.9mm) per story. At 50 stories, the column will have shortened to 3.7 in. (94mm) less than its unstressed length. Where one cell of a bundled

45、tube system is, say, 50stories high and an adjacent cell is, say, 100stories high, those columns near the boundary between .the two systems need to have this differential deflection reconciled. Major structural work has been found to be needed at such locations. In at least one building, the Rialto

46、Project, Melbourne, the structural engineer found it necessary to vertically pre-stress the lower height columns so as to reconcile the differential deflections of columns in close proximity with the post-tensioning of the shorter column simulating the weight to be added on to adjacent, higher colum

48、由于最近趨向于更復(fù)雜的建筑形式，同時(shí)也需要增加剛度以抵抗幾力和地震力，大多數(shù)高層建筑都具有由框架、支撐構(gòu)架、剪力墻和相關(guān)體系相結(jié)合而構(gòu)成的體系。而且，就較高的建筑物而言，大多數(shù)都是由交互式構(gòu)件組成三維陳列。將這些構(gòu)件結(jié)合起來(lái)的方法正是高層建筑設(shè)計(jì)方法的本質(zhì)。其結(jié)合方式需要在考慮環(huán)境、功能和費(fèi)用后再發(fā)展，以便提供促使建筑發(fā)展達(dá)到新高度的有效結(jié)構(gòu)。這并不是說(shuō)富于想象力的結(jié)構(gòu)設(shè)計(jì)就能夠創(chuàng)造出偉大建筑。正相反，有許多例優(yōu)美的建筑僅得到結(jié)構(gòu)工程師適當(dāng)?shù)闹С志捅粍?chuàng)造出來(lái)了，然而，如果沒(méi)有天賦甚厚的建筑師的創(chuàng)造力的指導(dǎo)，那么，得以發(fā)展的就只能是好的結(jié)構(gòu)，并非是偉大的建筑。無(wú)論如何，要想創(chuàng)造出高層建筑真正非凡

50、柱梁節(jié)點(diǎn)固有柔性，并且由于初步設(shè)計(jì)應(yīng)該力求突出體系的弱點(diǎn)，所以在初析中使用框架的中心距尺寸設(shè)計(jì)是司空慣的。當(dāng)然，在設(shè)計(jì)的后期階段，實(shí)際地評(píng)價(jià)結(jié)點(diǎn)的變形很有必要。支撐框架：支撐框架實(shí)際上剛度比抗彎矩框架強(qiáng)，在高層建筑中也得到更廣泛的應(yīng)用。這種體系以其結(jié)點(diǎn)處鉸接或則接的線性水平構(gòu)件、垂直構(gòu)件和斜撐構(gòu)件而具特色，它通常與其他體系共同用于較高的建筑，并且作為一種獨(dú)立的體系用在低、中高度的建筑中。尤其引人關(guān)注的是，在強(qiáng)震區(qū)使用偏心支撐框架。此外，可以利用STRESS，STRUDL，或一系列二維或三維計(jì)算機(jī)分析程序中的任何一種進(jìn)行結(jié)構(gòu)分析。另外，初步分析中常用中心距尺寸。剪力墻：剪力墻在加強(qiáng)結(jié)構(gòu)體系剛性的

52、內(nèi)比較高的樓層向下移特別有效。這種體系還具有高延性之優(yōu)點(diǎn)，這種特性在強(qiáng)震區(qū)特別重要。由于這些墻內(nèi)必然出同一些大孔，使得剪力墻體系分析變得錯(cuò)綜復(fù)雜?？梢酝ㄟ^(guò)桁架模似法、有限元法，或者通過(guò)利用為考慮剪力墻的交互作用或扭轉(zhuǎn)功能設(shè)計(jì)的專門計(jì)處機(jī)程序進(jìn)行初步分析?？蚣芑蛑问酵搀w結(jié)構(gòu)：框架或支撐式筒體最先應(yīng)用于IBM公司在Pittsburgh的一幢辦公樓，隨后立即被應(yīng)用于紐約雙子座的110層世界貿(mào)易中心摩天大樓和其他的建筑中。這種系統(tǒng)有以下幾個(gè)顯著的特征：三維結(jié)構(gòu)、支撐式結(jié)構(gòu)、或由剪力墻形成的一個(gè)性質(zhì)上差不多是圓柱體的閉合曲面，但又有任意的平面構(gòu)成。由于這些抵抗側(cè)向荷載的柱子差不多都被設(shè)置在整個(gè)系統(tǒng)的中心，所以整體的慣性得到提高，剛度也是很大的。在可能的情況下，通過(guò)三維概念的應(yīng)用、二維的類比，我們可以進(jìn)行筒體結(jié)構(gòu)的分析。不管應(yīng)用那種方法，都必須考慮剪力滯后的影響。這種最先在航天器結(jié)構(gòu)中研究的剪力滯后出現(xiàn)后，對(duì)筒體結(jié)構(gòu)的剛度是一個(gè)很大的限制。這種觀念已經(jīng)影響了筒體結(jié)構(gòu)在60層以上建筑中的應(yīng)用。設(shè)計(jì)者已經(jīng)開發(fā)出了很多的技術(shù)，用以減小剪力滯后的影響，這其中最有名的是桁架的應(yīng)用?？蚣芑蛑问酵搀w在40層或稍高的建筑中找到了自己的用武之地。除了一些美觀的考慮外，桁架幾乎很少涉及與外墻聯(lián)系的每個(gè)建筑功能，而懸索一般設(shè)置在機(jī)械的地板上，這就令機(jī)械體系設(shè)計(jì)師們很不贊成。但是，作為一個(gè)性價(jià)比較好的結(jié)構(gòu)體系
