Description

Explore the structural evolution of modern skyscrapers with Outrigger Design for High-Rise Buildings by Routledge. This text examines how outrigger systems function as rigid horizontal structures that enhance stability and strength. By connecting a building's core or spine to distant columns, these systems prevent overturning in tall, narrow structures, much like the design of a canoe. While the basic principles of outrigger design date back centuries, this book tracks their development into a primary structural method. You will learn how these systems eclipsed tubular frames in the 1980s to become the preferred approach for supertall buildings. As architecture became more ambitious, designers turned to properly proportioned core-and-outrigger schemes to meet the demands of increasing height and complexity. This is an essential resource for understanding the engineering logic behind the world's most iconic high-rise structures.

Key Features

Learn how outrigger systems improve building stability by connecting the core to distant columns.

Study the historical development of outrigger principles used in tall buildings for nearly 500 years.

Understand why outrigger systems became more popular than tubular frames for supertall buildings during the 1980s.

Gain insight into the design of properly proportioned core-and-outrigger schemes for modern architecture.

Explore the mechanical logic of how rigid horizontal structures prevent tall buildings from overturning.
