Unpublished © Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat / Georges Binder The “International” Skyscraper: Observations While using tall buildings data, the following paper aims to show trends and shifts relating to building use and new locations accommodating high-rise buildings. After decades of the American office building being dominate, in the last twelve years we have observed a gradual but major shift from office use to residential and mixed-use for Tall Buildings, and from North America to Asia. The turn of the millennium has also seen major changes in the use of buildings in cities having the longest experience with Tall Buildings. Chicago is witnessing a series of office buildings being transformed into residential or mixed-use buildings, a phenomenon also occurring on a large scale in New York. In midtown Manhattan of New York City we note the transformation of major hotels into residential projects. The transformation of landmark projects in midtown New York City is making an impact, but it is not at all comparable to the number of new projects being built in Asia. When conceiving new projects, we should perhaps bear in mind that, in due time, these will also experience major shifts in uses and we should plan for this in advance.

This paper reviews the evolution of tall building’s structural systems and the technological driving force behind tall building developments. For the primary structural systems, a new classification – interior structures and exterior structures – is presented. While most representative structural systems for tall buildings are discussed, the emphasis in this review paper is on current trends such as outrigger systems and diagrid structures. Auxiliary damping systems controlling building motion are also discussed. Further, contemporary “out-of-the-box” architectural design trends, such as aerodynamic and twisted forms, which directly or indirectly affect the structural performance of tall buildings, are reviewed. Finally, the future of structural developments in tall buildings is envisioned briefly. Keywords: Aerodynamics, Building forms, Damping systems, Diagrid structures, Exterior structures, Interior structures, Outrigger systems, Structural performance, Structural systems, Tall buildings Introduction Tall buildings emerged in the late nineteenth century in revolution – the steel skeletal structure – as well as consequent the United States of America. They constituted a so-called glass curtain wall systems, which occurred in Chicago, has led to “American Building Type,” meaning that most important tall the present state-of-the-art skyscraper.

Ali2 1Urban Planning and Policy Department, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL 60607, USA 2School of Architecture, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL 61820, USA Abstract There is much architectural and engineering literature which discusses the virtues of exterior bracing and diagrid systems in regards to sustainability - two systems which generally reduce building materials, enhance structural performance, and decrease overall construction cost. By surveying past, present as well as possible future towers, this paper examines another attribute of these structural systems - the blend of structural functionality and aesthetics. Given the external nature of these structural systems, diagrids and exterior bracings can visually communicate the inherent structural logic of a building while also serving as a medium for artistic effect.

    CITY of NOVI CITY COUNCIL Agenda Item D December 18, 2017 SUBJECT: Approval of recommendation from the Consultant Review Committee to award the Agreement for Civil Engineering Private Development Field Services to Spalding DeDecker for a five-year term and adoption of associated fees and charges, effective December 18,2017. SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT: Department of Public Services, Engineering Division CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: ~~ BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contract with the City's current consultant for civil engineering field services for private development projects, Spalding DeDecker Associates, Inc. (SDA), expires on December 17, 2017. This consultant primarily provides engineering services related to private development, such as review of residential plot plans, construction inspection, project closeout paperwork assistance, and the completion of record drawings. The current contract was awarded at the April 23, 2012 City Council meeting and became effective on May 1, 2012 as a two-year contract. This contract has been extended four times, most recently on February 6, 2017. The pending expiration of the contract resulted in the City issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to consulting engineering firms. Listing minimum qualifications helped to ensure the responding firms met certain critical criteria, such as staff credentials, number of qualified staff, distance from the City, and relevant municipal experience. The RFQ was posted publicly and resulted in responses from three firms. The review process consisted of two components: 1) reviewing and scoring each of the qualifications; and 2) opening sealed fee proposal forms from the most qualified firm(s). The three submittals were evaluated by staff from Public Services, Community Development and Finance Departments, using the Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) process, with an emphasis on each firm's experience and understanding of the scope.
