| Abstract: |
A major structural theme of the current project was to secure improved seismic resistance by adopting seismic-isolation devices appropriate for an office building in the shape of a thin vertical plane having a height over 130m. Because of the steel-structure flat vertical shape of the building, the anticipated wind load generated by a typhoon would be larger than the seismic load reduced by the seismic-isolation system. |
