A COMPARISON OF ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES OF TOP HIGH RISE BUILDINGS (2020)

Aditya Sanyal

Abstract


Constructing high rise buildings is becoming a trend in the current urban scenario. Various tall/ high rise buildings are being constructed due to high cost of urban land. This is also being done mainly to combine various uses like commercial and residential units into one. After the innovation of hybrid building materials, mega structures can now be constructed for heights of more than 100 floors. Structural system of high rise building should be chosen carefully, so that they will be stable enough to resist the major loads due to wind and earthquake forces. The architectural feature and structural systems for existing high rise buildings presently in vogue are studied and analyzed in this research. Top 10 high rises are compared and guidelines framed in this research. The future architects/designers of high rise buildings will find these guidelines useful.
