Modern classification
When the major part of the lateral load resisting
system is located:
within the interior of the building
> interior system
at the building perimeter
Interior Systems
Rigid Frames
(Moment Resisiting Frames)
Consist of horizontal and vertical
members
Members rigidly connected
together in a planar grid form.
Resist load primarily through the
flexural stiffness

Treated as vertical cantilevers fixed at the base

Bundled Tube
Instead of one tube, a building
consists of several tubes tied
together to resist the lateral forces
[1]
Bundled Tube

Height Limit
110 m
Advantages

Building
Examples
[16]
Tube in Tube
An external and internal shear wall core act together in resisting
the lateral loads
The floor diaphragms connecting the core and the outer tube
transfer the lateral loads to both systems
[17]
Tube in Tube
External Framed Tube + Internal Core Tube

Diagrid
The main difference with respect to conventional exterior-braced frame
structures is that almost all the conventional vertical columns are
eliminated
They carry shear by axial action of the diagonal members, while conventional
tubular structures carry shear by the bending of the vertical columns and
horizontal spandrels

Superframes
A superframe is composed of megacolumns comprising braced
frames of large dimensions at building corners
Those are linked by multistory trusses at about every 15 to 20
stories
