Time History Analysis of Steel Tall Buildings

Abstract:

The results of wind tunnel experiments were used to conduct time history analyses of three conventional square cross-section tall buildings with different structural systems. The primary purpose of the study was the direct comparison of the effects of the wind loads on the steel tall buildings. Time history analyses were conducted by applying local wind forces to the center of each floor. The results showed that, although the bending moments in the ground-level column on the two principal axes were different, the peak normal stresses were almost the same regardless of the structural systems. Similar observations were made regarding the tip displacements. Furthermore, analyses for the various loading conditions revealed that the contribution of the bending moment in the across-wind direction was the largest, followed by that in the along-wind direction. The ratio of the peak normal stresses for different loading conditions were observed to be almost the same regardless of the structural systems.
