Highrise Assignment
Highrise Assignment
INTRODUCTION:
Overview to High-Rise structures, where students are suppose to comprehend behaviour of different
high rise structure under different loading condition and structural systems for high-rise structures
around the world.
OBJECTIVES:
1. To understand concept of high rise buildings and their various structural systems.
2. To understand earthquake resistant measures for high rise buildings.
3. To understand wind pressure analysis and behaviour of high rise buildings.
4. To understand services essential in high rise buildings.
5. To understand Tuned Mass Dampers (Harmonic absorbers) or Seismic dampers for stability.
FACULTY INPUTS:
1. Lecture (online mode) conducted by. Prof. Aniruddha Kolhatkar on high rise structures around the
world, with an intent to understand; concept, behaviour, earthquake resistant measures, Seismic
dampers, wind pressure analysis etc.,
2. Lecture (online mode) conducted by. Prof. Jayant Patwardhan with an intent to understand services
and its space requirements of high rise buildings such as Fire-Safety, HVAC (Heating Ventilation and
Air Conditioning), MEP (Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing)
LEARNING OUTCOME:
1. Enumerate the types of structural systems of High-rise buildings through Notes Sketches and
Photographs.
2. Explain one structural system in detail through data collection and 3D modelling of the selected
building by experiential learning.
