Features of designing high-rise buildings

Abstract

EN: Problem statement. In recent years, the load-bearing structures of high-rise buildings are frequently designed and erected of reinforced concrete, because this material has great fire resistance and is cheap, and its strength is close to the steel strength. High-rise buildings have specifics, which essentially distinguishes them from traditional high-rise buildings. The main load-bearing elements of the structural system are columns, walls, slabs and floors, various foundations, including pile grids etc. In modern practice there are cases of modeling the aboveground part of the building ignoring the real geological conditions, or stages of the building construction. The creating the most accurate calculation model of the building leads to the adequacy of the calculation results.
