  • Application of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete in High-Rise Construction
    E3S Web of Conferences 164, 02005 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf /2020164020 05 TPACEE-2019 Application of fiber-reinforced concrete in high- rise construction Aleksandr Ischenko 1,, and Anastasia Borisova 1 1Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, 26 Yaroslavskoye Hw., Moscow, 129337, Russia Abstract. In this research, we study the use of fiber-reinforced concrete, including steel fiber-reinforced concrete in the construction of outrigger floors of a high-rise building. The definition and classification of fiber- reinforced concrete as a construction material, the methodology for calculating high-rise buildings using fiber-reinforced concrete, the advantages and disadvantages of this composite material, and the specifics of its use are formulated. The domestic and foreign experience in use of fiber-reinforced concrete is analyzed. The rationale for its use on the experience of construction of residential building in seismically active regions is given. A comparative analysis of concrete and fiber concrete use in the outrigger floors’ construction is carried out. 1 Introduction Every year the level of construction complexity inevitably grows. Most of the total number of modern constructions is made up of technically complex, unique objects with an increased degree of responsibility - high-rise and long-span buildings, buried structures, which creates new tasks due to ensuring the safety and reliability of buildings and structures under construction, reducing the negative impact on urban infrastructure within the zone influence. Partly, the demand for unique buildings is formed by huge corporations and highly developed countries, where the priority is the functionality of the premises and the possibility of placing multidirectional organizations in the same building.

Architectural Science Review www.arch.usyd.edu.au/asr Volume 50.3, pp 205-223 Invited Review Paper Structural Developments in Tall Buildings: Current Trends and Future Prospects Mir M. Ali† and Kyoung Sun Moon Structures Division, School of Architecture, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL 61820, USA †Corresponding Author: Tel: + 1 217 333 1330; Fax: +1 217 244 2900; E-mail: [email protected] Received 8 May; accepted 13 June 2007 Abstract: Tall building developments have been rapidly increasing worldwide. 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.

    Discontinuance of Publication To our readers, First and foremost, I, as the president of Yonhap News Agency, would like to give our readers many thanks for the deep interest shown in our Vantage Point magazine for many years. With your great interest and encouragement, Yonhap has done its utmost to make Vantage Point, South Korea's sole North Korea-only monthly in English, a quality magazine over the years. However, Yonhap has very regrettably decided to discontinue the publication of the maga- zine, making the January issue in 2016 its last. This discontinuance, however, will never mean weakening Yonhap’s North Korea news ser- vice. On the contrary, Yonhap, as a leading news agency in South Korea, has the grave obligation to play a part in helping materialize the Korean people’s ardent wish for the reunification of the Korean Peninsula by providing our readers at home and abroad with accurate news on the reality of the communist North and the South Korean government’s North Korea policy. Hence, Yonhap promises to continuously meet our Vantage Point readers’ keen interest in and high demand for stories on Korean Peninsula issues by providing you with a quicker, fairer, more accurate and stronger North Korean news service via its Web page (www.yonhapnews.co.kr). I would like to express my deep appreciation to our faithful readers once again, and hope you will continuously maintain interest in Korean issues down the road. Best regards, Park No-hwang President-publisher Yonhap News Agency 폐간사 독자여러분들에게, 우선 그동안 연합뉴스 Vantage Point를 애독해주신 독자 여러분들에게 깊은 감사의 말씀을 드립니다 그동안 연합뉴스는 독자 여러분들의 높은 관심과 격려 속에서 한국의 유일한 북한 전문 영문월간지인 Vantage Point를 품격있는 잡지로 만들기 위해 최선 을 다해왔습니다.
