A systematic study was made of the design of lifts for tall buildings, with particular regard to interaction with the total building design. Overall building objectives were identified and incorporated in a design.and-optimisation computer program. A feature of the program is that it will optimise,

This paper presents a review of the Taiwanese building codes and their relevance to the performance of tall buildings during the 21 September 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake. The 1982 edition of the Taiwanese code as supplemented in 1991 is discussed in more detail, since very few of the buildings subjected
The objective of this paper is to establish some unified design formulas for various kinds of passive dynamic absorber for wind-induced vibration control of tall buildings. A total of five different passive dynamic absorbers (TMD, TLCD, LCVA, C-TLD and R-TLD) are considered in this study. Firstly, u
An account is given of the graphics facilities developed by ABACUS for use on an inexpensive storage tube display terminal connected to a timesharing computer. The facilities allow programs to display simple pictures and menus of commands on the terminal as well as to manipulate graphically the geom
