A Braced tall steel building on seismic isolation system
Abstract
On the design for the high-rise steel structure with seismic isolator, the following items should be kept in mind. One is the tensile reaction on the isolation bearing by overturning moment incase of an earthquake. Another one is the proper building stiffness to produce seismic isolation system. On the above bases, we designed the narrow side as single span framework to concentrate the dead load as counter weight for the tensile reaction under earthquake. And we adopted concrete filled steel hollow section and Mega Bracing system covering four layers on north & south framework to secure the suitable stiffness.
