Analysis of High-Rise RCC Building for Determining Optimum Position of Outrigger System with Di erent Materials

Abstract

The high-rise structures are considered as symbols of economic power and leader- ship. Developing countries like India are also emerging as centers for new high-rise buildings. Nowadays the land is expensive and scarce everywhere so tall build- ing represent the best solution for solving this problem. But, as buildings height increases, its sti ness reduces which make the structure more susceptible to vi- brations due to wind and earthquake forces. Several systems are available to control vibrations or de ections, however, outrigger system is considered to be the most e ective systems to improve lateral sti ness and overall stability of high-rise buildings.
