Introduction & Definition
Emporis Standards defines: A multi-story structure between 35–100
meters tall, or a building of unknown height from 12–39 floors.

• Lateral loads
– Wind loads
– Seismic loads

Obstruct the internal planning and the locations of
the windows and doors; for this reason, braced bent
are usually incorporated internally along wall and
partition lines, especially around elevator, stair, and
service shaft.-Diagonal connections are expensive to
fabricate and erect.
Rigid Frame Structure
The word rigid means ability to resist the
deformation. Rigid frame structures can be defined
as the structures in which beams & columns are
made monolithically and act collectively to resist the
moments which are generating due to applied load.
Infilled Frame Structure
Most usual form of construction for tall buildings up to 30 stories in height Column and
girder framing of reinforced concrete, or sometimes steel, is in-filled by panels of brickwork,
block work, or cast-in-place concrete. Because of the in-filled serve also as external walls or
internal partitions, the system is an economical way of stiffening and strengthening the
structure. The complex interactive behavior of the infill in the frame, and the rather random
quality of masonry, has made it difficult to predict with accuracy the stiffness and strength
of an in-filled frame.
Flat-Plate and Flat Slab Structure
Gravity loading is shared between the tube and interior column or walls.
When lateral loading acts, the perimeter frame aligned in the direction of loading acts
as the “webs” of the massive tube of the cantilever, and those normal to the direction
of the loading act as the “flanges”.
The tube form was developed originally for building of rectangular plan, and probably
it’s most efficient use in that shape.

flexure.
The system is tubular in that the fascia diagonals not only form
a truss in the plane, but also interact with the trusses on the
perpendicular faces to affect the tubular behavior. This creates Introducing a minimum
