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.

  • About Our Pictures
    9446 Hilldale Drive, Dallas, TX 75231 (214) 221-3371 or (214) 221-3378 www.wiszco.com About our Pictures We chose a pictorial montage of U.S. Cityscapes as a theme for our website because we believe it best represents the construction industry. “Buildings and objects” are perhaps the most tangible representation of the construction industry as a whole. Additionally, buildings (in particular) represent the places where we, as people, collectively “live, work and play” (to paraphrase an often used expression by the real estate development community). More importantly, finished buildings and objects are the culmination of construction projects – and such projects are the by- product of the collective effort of a great many. In the end, all completed construction projects become a part of our community and eventually, the cities that comprise our great nation. Next time you’re in the “big city”, take a good look around and marvel at what the human spirit has been able to accomplish. In addition, we also chose a pictorial montage of U.S. Cityscapes since we provide our services on a nation-wide basis. When traveling throughout the United States, we often find ourselves in these great cities: Anchorage Located at the tip of the Cook Inlet, Anchorage is our nation’s northern-most city. It is by far, Alaska’s largest city comprising more than 40% of the state’s population. Only New York City has a higher percentage of state residents living in one city. Though field operations are centered on the north slope of Alaska, oil and gas production is the most visible industry in Anchorage.

  • Case Study John Hancock Tower
    Case Study John Hancock Tower PROJECT SUMMARY Installer Sonny’s Glass Tinting Type of Film Clear 4 mil (CL 400 PS SR) Installation Date 1986 Windows Covered 10,344 windows Performance Evaluation Performed 2009 Window Film Provides Decades of Safety for John Hancock Tower in Boston, MA. THE CHALLENGE The impressive John Hancock Tower was completed in 1978 and forever changed the Boston skyline. A design marvel created by one of the world’s most famous architects, Henry N. Cobb, it immediately became one of the city’s most recognizable buildings. Unfortunately, the Hancock Tower’s innovative design had a flaw; the glass kept falling out of the windows! The building came to be known by locals as “The Plywood Palace” due to the 3,500 plus pieces of plywood used to replace the fallen glass. Numerous steps were taken to correct the flaw; counterweights were installed at both ends of the building to minimize sway, every window was replaced with thermally tempered glass, and the entire structure was stiffened with the installation of additional steel bracing throughout. These efforts alleviated many of the issues but did not completely eliminate the glass breakage. Finally, a window film manufacturer, Madico, Inc., was brought in to help solve the glass breakage problem. THE SOLUTION Working in conjunction with the renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Madico developed a safety film that when applied to glass with a pressure-sensitive adhesive and attached to the window frames using a decorative mullion, would hold the broken glass in place and prevent dangerous shards from injuring the pedestrians walking below the 600 ft.

  • WILLIAM J. LEMESSURIER, P.E. Structural Engineer 1926-2007
    WILLIAM J. LEMESSURIER, P.E. Structural Engineer 1926-2007 Elected in 1978 “For teaching, research, and practice of structural design for buildings, with special concern for the relationship of structures to total architecture.” William James LeMessurier (Luh-MEASURE) Jr., innovative structural engineer, died on June 14, 2007 in Casco, Maine. Bill, as he was known to family, friends and colleagues, was born on June 12, 1926 in Pontiac, Michigan. The youngest of four children, he attended the Cranbrook School for Boys (whose campus was designed by Finish architect Eliel Saarinen) in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan where Bill showed an early aptitude in mathematics, music and the arts. For his undergraduate education, Bill decided to attend Harvard College instead of M.I.T., largely due to Harvard’s more inviting campus. He received his bachelor’s degree from Harvard in 1947, majoring in mathematics. Bill then studied architecture at Harvard’s Graduate School for Design before transferring to M.I.T.’s Department of Building Engineering and Construction to study structural engineering. While still at M.I.T., Bill worked part-time for Albert Goldberg, an established structural engineer in Boston. After receiving his master’s degree in 1953, Bill worked full-time for Mr. Goldberg and became a partner in Goldberg, LeMessurier Associates in the mid-1950’s. In April 1961, he ended his partnership with Mr. Goldberg and established LeMessurier Associates with new partners William Thoen, Emil Hervol and James Collins, from which he retired in 1995. Throughout his career, Bill pioneered the use of innovative structural systems that efficiently resisted gravity, wind and earthquake loads while respecting the aesthetic concerns of his architectural clients.

  • High-Hise Building Oata Base
    High-Hise Building Oata Base Since the inception of the Council, various surveys have been made con­ cerning the location, number of stories, height, material, and use of tall buildings around the world. The first report on these surveys was published in the Council's Proceedings of the First International Conference in 1972. TaU Building Systems and Concepts (Volume SC) brought that information up to date with a detailed survey in 1980. Changes to some of the data were reflected in Developments in TaU Buildings-1983, with further updating in Advances in TaU Buildings (January, 1986), High-Rise Buildings: Recent Progress (November, 1986), and TaU Build­ ings 0/ the World (February, 1987). This present volume provides the newer information more recently received. The original survey was based mainly on information collected from individuals in the major cities of the world. The main criterion for the selection of a city was generally its population. Another criterion was the availability of a Council member or other contact who might provide the needed information. This Appendix updates Table l. Because the data came from so many sourees, complete accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Buildings change names or new ones break ground, and this information is sometimes slow in reaching the Council headquarters. In this sense the survey keeps its nature as a "living document." Additions and corrections to the information presented here are welcomed, and should be brought to the attention of Council Headquarters at Lehigh University. 1003 1004 Second Century of the Skyscraper Table 1: World's TaUest Buildings.
