Abstract

AbstractConceiving tall building structure systems is a major step in the plan and design of tall buildings. Through summarizing the basic components and the basic lateral elements in various tall building structures, four conceiving methods for tall building structure systems are presented: (1) intercombination or alone forming by the basic lateral elements, (2) intercombination of different structures, (3) adding basic components in structure systems and (4) replacing basic components in structure systems. With these methods, designers could be able to establish the needed structure system to meet architectural functions, spatial arrangement, facade and other conditions, and these conceiving methods are helpful to architects or engineers to innovate the structure system in their special project.
