Effect of Inclination of Columns on the Change of the Stiffness of a High-Rise Building

Abstract:

This article describes the effect of inclination of columns on the change of stiffness of high-rise buildings with circular floor plan. Analysis was made for the building loaded by forces induced by wind and seismic loads. Various high-rise buildings with columns with different inclinations and buildings with vertical columns were analyzed from the viewpoint of horizontal displacements. The results were compared. The comparison was made with horizontal displacements of the building, where columns were inclined.
