Abstract:

This paper describes the method of structural design of a plate-like ultra high-rise building, taking the Shinjuku Toho Building as an example. In particular the major problems in the structural design of this building are described, namely ensuring safety during earthquakes, ensuring habitability during strong winds, and ensuring the load resistance of the columns that are subject to large axial forces. Also, the test results and performance of an "improved non-scallop method" for beam- column joint are described. Finally the method of structural designing "Godzilla’s Head" is described.
