 | Structural Details: Floor Plan: A 59-story main tower, a 5-story podium base, and basement levels extending down to Level -3. Seismic Isolator Technology: Seismic isolators are installed on all columns at Level -3 (foundation level). This system completely isolates the building from seismic loads transmitted through the ground. Independent Core: The building core, which houses the elevator and stairwells, extends down to the -3rd level and is connected to the foundation via an independent isolator system separate from the main structure. Earthquake Safety Protocols: Damping Gaps: Strategic gaps have been left on all four sides of the structure. These gaps allow the building to sway during an earthquake, safely dissipating seismic energy. Movable Plate System: The black-striped areas you see around the building are systematic movable plates that compensate for the difference in movement between the structure and the ground during an earthquake, act as a bridge, and adapt to the building’s flexing. thats it! im addemarch. submitted by /u/demabuild [link] [comments] |
