CATEGORIZATIONS

CONCRETE DIAGRID STRUCTURAL SYSTEM

STEEL DIAGRID STRUCTURAL SYSTEM

The most commonly used diagrid material is concrete. The concrete diagrids are used in both type, precast and cast in-situ. As the precast concrete sections are flexible, it allows them to fit perfectly in the structure geometry. It also protects from fire damages.

The most commonly and popularly used material in the construction of diagrids is steel. The sections commonly used are rectangular HSS, rounded HSS and wide flanges. The weight and size of the sections are made so as to resist the high bending loads.

But the precast concrete constitutes more to the dead load of the structure.

They can be quickly erected and the cost of labor for the installation is low.

L AT E R A L L O A D : ADDITIONAL MECHANISM The additional downward force from the transfer increases the effective stance of the building to resist lateral loads.

COLUMNS The shape causes eccentric load. Offcenter loads would cause excessive stresses in columns. The solution is that using uniform shear force mechanism that could counteract and eliminate the bending. The system is outstanding of its economy of material.

VERTICAL LOAD SPACE TRUSS Allows for the vast majority of the gravitational load to be supported at the exterior. By doing so, this eliminated about half of the dead load that there usually is in tall buildings (less steel was needed). The centre column, rising from the 25thfloor, bears the gravitational load and resists the overturning moment.

Who

The architect and designer of the Burj al Arab in Dubai, UAE.

Tom Wright is British, born in Croydon a suburb of London on 18th September 1957.

Proccess of Working lived in Dubai during the design and construction of the project, working as the project Design Director for Atkins , one of the world′s leading multi discipline design consultancies.

Education The Royal Russell School and then Kingston Polytechnic school of Architecture. He became a member of the Royal institute of British Architects in 1983 present.

1993 – 1999.

FLOORS : 60 Floors.

FLOOR AREA : BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

111,500 m2

General Information

A luxury hotel. Used exclusively as a hotel. Height: 321 m

Stands on an artificial island.

Connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. Designed to symbolize Dubai's urban transformation and to mimic the sail of a boat.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

Theoretical

Concept

The client wanted to design, not just a hotel, but also a signature building; one that would announce, "Welcome to Dubai".

A dramatic statement with imagery that would immediately conjure up images of the city. The building is built on sand, which is unusual as most tall building are founded on rock. The Burj Al-Arab is supported on 250, 1.5M diameter columns that go 45 meters under the sea. As there is only sand to hold the building up the columns rely on friction.

Orientation & Circulation

Concept

Orientation & Circulation

Concept

The orientation of the building minimizes the heat gain during the summer seasons. The south elevation has the most exposed surface area. As a result, it has the maximum capacity for heat absorption.

For people, there is access to the hotel through the roof via a helicopter. At the main entrance there is a grand stairway, an escalator and elevators. For air, the revolving door located at the main entrance acts as a locking mechanism to prevent a phenomenon known as the stack effect, which occurs when the hot air rises and the cool air falls in a tall building. BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH

Geographic location subjects the hotel to severe weather conditions including strong winds and occasional violent thunderstorms.

WIND EFFECTS DUBAI’S Due to the structure’s proximity to its adjacent hotel resort, wind tunnel testing was considered to ensure a safe design.

wind speed of 45 meters per second, under the recommendations of Dubai Municipality, was adopted for the design. BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH WIND EFFECTS DUBAI’S

ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH VORTEX SHEDDING

• Analysis were done with respect to Building response under wind loads • Wind tunnel could threaten the entire skeleton. Wind blowing away sharp edges can cause destruction. • Vibration may cause due to vortex shedding

RESPONSE

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

• First option was to change the shape but Architect was against and forced the engineer to re-think. • Ingenious hanging weight were installed at variable places - when wind blows, 5 ton weight will swing and damp down the vibrations to safety limits (refer image for locations highlighted in red)

Structural Expressionism • Structural Expressionism basically means that the structural components of the building are visible on the inside as well as outside • Exposed truss work and complex shapes.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

Island Construction

CONCEPT&DESIGN

PHASE 1 It took 3 yrs to reclaim the land from sea and less than 3 yrs to construct the building.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

Island rises 7 and a half meters above the waves. it's protected by concrete honeycomb shape solid blocks designed to reduce the impact of waves.

Main concern was protection of island, waves breaking over island and impacting the structure.

FINAL PHASE Architect-Wright however rejected the proposal of rocks because this would make island too high and his concept was –sail rising from water-people close to sea.

pioneering concrete blocks- specially designed to reduce impact of waves. Testing were done to ensure island was safe

Process Timeline

PHASE 1 • Temporary tube piles driven into sea bed • Temporary sheet piles and tie rods driven into seabed to support boundary rocks

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

PHASE 2 • Permanent boundary rock bunds deposited either side of sheet piles • Hydraulic fill layers deposited between bunds to displace seawater and form island

PHASE 3 • Permanent concrete armor units placed around island to protect it from the waves • 1.5 m diameter 45m deep piles driven through island and sea bed below to stabilize structure

PHASE 4 • Island interior excavated and temporary sheet pile coffer dam inserted • 2m thick concrete plug slab laid at base of island • Reinforced concrete retaining wall built • Basement floors created

Concrete Blocks As wave hit the block, water pass inside and turn around in itself and hence force is dissipated and hence battle for secure island is won.

worked like sponge

Island only 7 and half meter above sea level was ready in Nov 1995.

FOUNDATION CHALLENGES

It was very challenging to design foundations to Support the mega structure-270 miles off coast, 320 m in height on man-made island (6mts from Arabian Sea) resistant to earthquake (falling under range of major fault line) and wind that blows 90 miles per hour.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

Structure was designed to amaze-one never built before. Location on a reclaimed land was added challenge.

FOUNDATION RESULTS

• The building is built on sand. Sand was compacted around the building to create friction against pile. This

stopped the building from sinking. • Each column is a steel reinforced concrete foundation pile with 45 meter in length.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

• Piles -20 percent longer than planned were executed with combined length of six and a half miles-35 times as long as tiring hotel to support. • Longer the pile the greater the effect of skin friction is.

Foundations has the capacity to resists failure due to Liquefaction which is caused during earthquakes.

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

LATERAL LOADS

The trusses act as cross bracing to wind and earthquake forces. The Burj Al Arab has three tubular steel trusses on the outside of the two sides of the V (in green).

The shape of Burj Al Arab lowers wind forces more effectively than a square building because of the streamlined V and curved fabric atrium wall (in blue).

Due to the rigidity, lateral loads are transferred to the fabric wall which acts similar to a diaphragm.

The translucent fabric wall of the atrium helps transfer lateral load (in red).

BURJ-AL-ARAB, DUBAI

The structure transfers vertical loads from the top to the bottom of the structure using several different aspects. The structure transfers the vertical loading is through the large spine. This is the most direct way for the vertical loads to reach the ground.

the vertical loads transfer through the curved edge.

The steel trusses running alongside the structure also helps in deflecting the horizontal loads.

The constructor, GS E&C, went through complex construction process by adopting non-noise and non-vibration method for the continuous operation of the hotel in the most densely populated area in Seoul. It excavated the lower part and expanded the building with the existing facility propped up using a supporting structure. Applying post tension method and flat slab method, it built the new office building while remodeling the existing hotel. GS E&C also applied three-dimensional simulation method using BIM Modeling and 3D Scanner to secure the high-quality construction through checking and correcting the irrationalities and interruptions in advance.

MECHANICAL SYSTEM

M AT E R I A L : A curtain wall system is an outer covering of a building in which the outer walls are non-structural, utilized only to keep the weather out and the occupants in. Since the curtain wall is nonstructural, it can be made of lightweight materials, thereby reducing construction costs. When glass is used as the curtain wall, an advantage is that natural light can penetrate deeper within the building. The curtain wall façade does not carry any structural load from the building other than its own dead load weight. The wall transfers lateral wind loads that are incident upon it to the main building structure through connections at floors or columns of the building. A curtain wall is designed to resist air and water infiltration, absorb sway induced by wind and seismic forces acting on the building, withstand wind loads, and support its own weight.

SEGRAM BUILDING CONNECTING THE INTERIOR WITH EXTERIOR 157 M – 38 STORIES LOATION : NEW YORK

C L I M AT E NEWYORK

The climate of New York state is generally humid continental, while the extreme southeastern portion of the state (New York City and Long Island area) lies in the warmer humid subtropical climate zone. Winter temperatures average below freezing during January and February in much of New York state, but several degrees above freezing along the Atlantic coastline, including New York City

ZONING The bulk of the interior serves pri-merrily as office space with mechanic-ical spaces at the top levels of both towers. The ground level is occupied by a double height lobby space while the space below grade serves as underground parking. OFFICE

MECHANICAL SYSTEM CORE AND OUTRIGGER STRUCTURAL SYSTEM structure combines a steel moment frame and a steel and reinforced concrete core

Mies's originally wanted to express the structural elements by exposing the steel frame, however, fire safely codes at the time required all structural steel to be covered in a fire proof material, generally reinforced concrete The concrete shear walls extend to the,17th floor while bracing extend to the29th floor. At the time, it was the first building to combine a brace frame with moment frame as well as servings the tallest building to incorporate high strength bolted connections To emphasize the bare elements, the exterior glazing is accompanied with nonstructural -beams as a result of the fire codes.

FORM: AERODYNAMICS

Analysis

The international style of the Seagram Building demonstrates little considerations to the optimization of aerodynamics as Mies was more focused on creating a rational, economical, and functional form resulting in a box-like shape. As wind loads strike the building's form, the flatness of the exterior facades generate a greater amount of turbulence as the it wraps around the entirety of the building. Ultimately, increasing the resistances of the wind speed on the sides of the building.

MECHANICAL SYSTEM ELEVATOR DIAGRAM 38 STORY

The vertical circulation is made of four public elevators and one service shaft, all of which is located within the core of the tower. The public lifts offer access to every level including the parking garage, but permitsaccess to the mechanical floors. The service tift travels from the parking garage to the rooftop, allowing convenient transportation of equipment and maintenance support

M AT E R I A L :

The Seagram Building was built of a steel frame, from which non-structural glass walls were hung. Mies preferred the steel frame to be visible to all; however, American building codes at the time required that all structural steel be covered in a fireproof material, usually concrete, because improperly protected steel columns or beams may soften and fail in confined fires.

S U S TA I N A B I L I T Y The Seagram Building offers littlest no sustainable characteristics. The extensive curtain-wall and large window areas (extending from floor to ceiling) lack no thermal breaks creating a warm interior atmosphere year round that adds increased dependency on the mechanical sys-teems to cool the interior spaces. This not only increases the cost per year of air conditioning, but also creates an unpleasant work environment for its occupants.. he deep floor plans result in large open spaces that produce a warm interior that is difficult to control. The form in itself offers little to no areas where bolt-on "green" additions can be incorporated and the buildings orientation exploits natural daylight In fact, the Seagram Building ranks one of lowest energy performing building of all time with a score of 3with respect to heating, cooling and lighting technologies

ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT

DNA Concept The project has been devoted to promoting carbon‐absorbing architecture, in order to decrease the temperature of the Earth. The architectural concept is to eco‐design an energy selfsufficient building, whose energy is electric, thermal and also alimentary.

THE 4 MAIN OBJECTIVES OF THIS TWISTING SHAPE ARE:

Perfectly integrated in the North / South pyramidal profile of the Building Volume defined with the urban setbacks required by the Municiplaity of Taipei. Generate a maximum of cascades of suspended open‐air gardens, not part of the F.A.R (floor area ratio). Thus, the planted balconies surface area can exceed the limit of the required 10% Offer to each inhabitant exceptional panoramic views on the skyline of Taipei by multiplying the transversal views, especially towards the very close Taipei 101 tower.

Generate from a flexible standardized level a progressive geometry with corbels which provides intimacy and confidentiality to each apartment by avoiding the indiscreet vision axes.

• Every floor is rotated by 4.5 degrees clockwise as the tower moves up, to a total of 90 degrees. When viewed from different angles, the tower transforms into a myriad of forms. The four main profiles of the twisted building are : pyramid, cross, reverse pyramid and ellipse.

Architectural Competition Proposed in Romania

DUBAI ARCHITECTURE S c h o o l To w e r

2ND PLACE WINNER The proposal presents a nice interpretation of periscope idea a simple form by expressing the importance of the need for students to observe as part of the learning and training process. This very idea is then pushed further with each tower being designated for a specific academic year of study giving a “structured guide” to the students in the different academic year of study as they will be clearly able to cross observe each other. It can be seen as a problem in term of lack of inter-connection and exchange, however the project redeems this with the connection at the base and the top within the “Social Zone”.

EXTERIOR PODIUM

platform which is clearly differentiated from the spaces above it by its physical form or by the type of space inside it.

TOWER

Podiums can also be used to define the lower floors of a building without setbacks, when these floors hold common areas in contrast to the private floors above them. The podium here is used to attract users as pedestrians to enter the tower, as per the idea of the scale hiehrarchy

PODIUM

ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT

Architecture can be defined through the permanent analysis of everything that surrounds them. From the natural, social or cultural context to the built space everything is analyzed and implemented in each project. This 360 degree-look cannot physically take place in horizontal Educational environment, thats why they wanted to accentuate this widening of perspective through the shape of the architecture school Tower. The periscope gives you the possibility to extend your look vertically & see farther in the distance. they used the periscope as a symbol for the transition from the horizontal environment to the vertical one, because living in a periscope-tower makes an effortless view across wider distances possible.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND JORDAN

AL-RAMTHA Different civilizations of Aramaic, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine and Islamic came to to the city of Al-Ramtha. These cultures left some of their archaeological features in the Al-Ramtha region.

It consisted of caves, caves with inscriptions and drawings, located in the center of the city, and there was the pool of AlMahsi, from which the pilgrims and Arab tribes passing through the city used to draw.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AL-RAMTH, JORDAN

The Roman Empire utilized Ar Ramtha as a remote hub to cross-link their colonies. The ruins of buildings and ancient Roman antiquities have been discovered at different parts of Ar-Ramtha. During the Islamic expansion, Ar Ramtha, which was in the Houran territory, was a port for Muslim scientists crossing between Syria and Al-Hijaz. Historically and sociologically, the city is the twin to Daraa city in Syria, which is located on just the other side of the border. The Municipality was established in 1927. The oldest building in Ar-Ramtha is : Al-Omari Mosque.

The first type of users are the students and the academic staff working in the campus, they need a VIP residential dorm that would contain all the academic facilities. All what these users need is a breathing space to study and work in.

The cultural background of the workers in the estate is a bit different from the Jordanian culture, they don't mind overlapping and mixing rooms, and they actually think of a space as a shelter as a priority.
