Abstrait:

In 1968, the very first high-rise building, the Kasumigaseki-Building (36 stories and 150 m high), was constructed in the earthquake-prone country of Japan. Now, some 20 years later, this country is about to enter the era of high-rise buildings of 300 m height. If this pace of progress continues, it would not be an exaggeration to visualize super-high-rise buildings of some 200 stories in the coming century. The concentration of people, facilities, information, etc. to metropolitan areas such as Tokyo has become especially pronounced in recent years, further increasing the demand for high utilization of available land space. Demand has also increased for advanced intelligent buildings which provide features such as protection from natural disasters of amassed valuable information, in line with the development of an information oriented society. The technology for high-rise buildings which can meet these demands exists and, with the development of seismic response control systems, the realization of the super-high-rise buildings is on the horizon. The DIB-200 concept is proposed for the coming era as a super-high-rise building that excels in safety, dwelling comfort, and design, and is appropriate for the near-future metropolis. The seismic control system actively controls the vibration of the building during earthquakes. A building that adopts this concept is a Dynamic Intelligent Building (DIB), and, as the project described herein is 200 stories high, it is named DIB-200.
