| Abstrakt: |
This paper discusses the analysis of the 600m Chicago Spire for wind climate of Chicago and other weather phenomenon. Tests performed by RWDI in the wind tunnel and results are discussed as well as lessons learned about some of the parameters of the building. Also discussed is the decision making process and factors that led to an Active Mass Damper being included on the project. A description of some of the special analyses performed for this unique project is also included. |
