OUTRIGGER HYBRID STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS IN HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS

UNIVERSITY OF CYPRUS, 2012

This research was realised in the architectural department of UCY with the aim to investigate the application of hybrid outrigger structural systems in prototypical  high-rise buildings. Under the scope of this research five scenarios of  100 meters high-rise buildings were developed according to the transposition of the center of mass in z-axis. The associative model was developed in Grasshopper/ Rhinoceros  by Pattichi E. and SAP2000 structural analysis was used by the researchers in a trial and error investigation of the case studies’ structural performance.
