TRÊS IRMÃOS SKYSCRAPER PROJECT
AN OVERVIEW OF THE INTERIOR VERTICAL STRUCTURES
Our highlight today on our 72 stories skyscraper is the interior
vertical structures. The whole structure was designed as a hybrid
structural system, comprising a combination of both tubular and rigid
structural frame.
The interior columns were designed as concrete members and typically
help to resist gravity loads coming on and from the skyscraper. Due to
the shape complexity of the structure and increasing gravity loads on
lower floor levels, more interior columns are present below what we call
“the belly” which is the protruded part from the ground floor to the
40th floor of the skyscraper. So as you progress in height, the number
of interior columns reduces in plan.
Another important supporting structure is the lift shafts which
typically help transmit lateral and gravitational loads to the founding
structure. Also to note, the interior structures were automated to avoid
redundant and tiring tasks.
We would appreciate your comments, contributions and reviews about our
adopted structural system.
