Structural Design and Seismic Analysis of Connecting Corridor in High-rise Buildings

Abstract

With the development of the society, the demand on high-rise buildings has increased remarkblly due to some reasons. Meanwhile, connected corridor structure become a popular design on high-rise buildings which allow different towers to be linked. Due to the complexity of the structure system, it is necessary to indicate the existing issues and the approaches to deal with them or reduce the effect. By reviewing various papers, several conclusions have been drawn. Steel truss is the most efficiency composition of both structure and material in bearing loads, where flexible connection are more likely to be applied with it and has the greatest ability in against the seismic effect.
