  • 초고층빌딩의 비정형 곡면형태 조합 및 복합관계에 관한 연구 a Study on the Convergence Relativity of the Combining Curved Forms of Tall Buildings
    https://doi.org/10.5392/JKCA.2020.20.03.190 초고층빌딩의 비정형 곡면형태 조합 및 복합관계에 관한 연구 A Study on the Convergence Relativity of the Combining Curved Forms of Tall Buildings 박상준 신라대학교 실내건축디자인전공 Sang-Jun Park([email protected]) 요약 본 연구는 세계 각지에서 초고층건물들이 사회적, 경제적 기반으로 순위를 경쟁하듯이 증가하고 있는 추세 에 있어서 다양한 형태변형의 가능성 가운데 패러다임을 정립하는데 있다. 또한 초고층건물은 도시, 국가를 상징하기 때문에 관광자원으로 이용될 뿐만 아니라 개성 있는 랜드마크적 역할의 중요성을 가지고 미래지향적 곡면 형태를 모색하고자 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 복잡·다양한 비정형 건축형태 가운데 특히 곡선 형태에 대한 세분화를 통해 형태조합 및 복합관계를 유추하는데 목적이 있다. 따라서 곡면형을 정형화곡면, 단방향곡면, 이중휨곡면 등으로 구분하여 조형적 형태를 인지하는 방식보다는 실질적인 설계가 이루어지는 시공성을 근거 하기 위해 세계초고층협의회(CTBUH)에서 선정한 순위 자료 중 총 50개의 초고층건물을 연구대상으로 하였 다. 이러한 유형 분류는 초고층건축의 설계에 있어 다양한 곡면형을 추구하는 디자인과정에 합리적으로 관여 하는 기초적 자료로 활용 될 수 있을 것이다. ■ 중심어 :∣초고층빌딩∣비정형-곡면형태∣형태조합 및 복합 관계∣ Abstract Globally, more super-tall buildings tend to be constructed competitively in the social and economic foundations. In the circumstance, this study is aimed at establishing a paradigm of super-tall buildings in terms of their various forms. Symbolizing a city or state, super-tall buildings not only are used as resources of tourism, but play an important role as a characteristic landmark. Therefore, it is necessary to find a curved form for a futuristic perspective. The purpose of this study is to infer the convergence relativity of curved forms among complex and diverse unstructured construction forms.
