MIM 4053E - Tall Building Structures

Course Objectives

. To teach structural systems used in tall buildings
2. To empower theoretically learned information by examining examplar projects.

Course Description

Within the context of the course, after a brief introduction with the history of the tall buildings, loads and design criteria of structural systems used for tall buildings such as frame systems, shear walls systems, frame + shear walls systems, core systems, tubular systems and diagrid systems will be examined and typical examples related to all structural system types will be evaluated.
