Design method regarding the habitability of super high-rise reinforced concrete housings in high wind
By Takashi Kitahori

Concrete Journal, Vol.38, No.8, Aug., 2000


Synopsis
In recent years, super high-rise reinforced concrete housings over 60 m become to be built a lot. In our country, the structural design of the main structure department material in the reinforced concrete building is decided by the earthquake resistance design mainly. However, as for super high-rise reinforced concrete housings, the habitability problem to the wind-induced vibration for high wind is importance. Especially, the habitability for high wind brings about a big influence from the structure design about over 150 m of height buildings. This report introduces the contents of the limit state design method regardingthe habitability for high wind, and explaining the calculation method in detail. The purpose is good use for designer of super high-rise reinforced concrete housings.
Keywords:
