11/59
A rigid or semi-rigid frame will deform under lateral loads in two ways: a) cantilever bending and b) shear sway distortion
The combination of these represents the actual behavior of the frame structure.
Stiffening the frame with x-bracing, for example, will cause more cantilever bending and less shear sway

Core and frame systems provide adequate stiffness up to 30-40 stories. Generally cores are at the center of the building, both for
practical reasons (daylight) and to resist shear forces more effectively. If not centered, they are usually symmetrically located.

First Wisconsin Center Skidmore Owings & Merrill Milwaukee, Wisconsin 1974
An example of a steel frame with a belt truss and outrigger system at the 15th and 41st floors, and a transfer truss at the
3rd level. Note that the outrigger trusses are in the direction of the wind only indicating that wind resistance in the longi-
tudinal direction is provided only by the stiffness of the frame.
Diagrams illustrate the effect of belt truss and outriggers in st iffening a core-frame structure. Onthe right, the bending moment decreases in response to increasing stiffness provided by the belt trusses.

The research on tall buildings at IIT (Illinois Institute of Technology) under Mies van der Rohe and Fazlur Khan of SOM led to new
concepts on how tall buildings might efficiently resist lateral forces. Myron Goldsmiths thesis project proposes a super structural
frame, detached from the envelope, and capable of resisting all the lateral forces at the perimeter of the building where it can do so
more effectively.

The Chestnut-Dewitt apartment building (Chicago, 1961-65) and the Brunswick Building (Chicago,
1962-66) were the starting points for Fazlur Khan and SOMs application of the concept of a framed
tube structure for high rise buildings.

There is more fun than anything else in doing a more elegant solution for an ordinary 75-
story building. We have a long way to go to make the skyscraper what it really can be, and it
doesnt have to be super-tall to do this. There are ways to open up space, to make it more
economical and to face the problems of fire and transportation and pedestrian joy at the
bottom. These are much more interesting problems.

The base of the CitiCorp Center Tower has only a central concrete lift core and four mega-columns coming down to the ground. This
creates an open through-block site that has been filled with public space, retail shops and a reconstructed church (St. Peters
Lutheran) seen in the left foreground of the photo.

Engineer William LeMessurier designed the structure of the CitiCorp Tower as a braced perimeter frame with long diagonals on the
facades in a chevron pattern (eight floors high) collecting and transferring the floor loads to the center of each face where the mega-
columns below are located. These faade trusses collect about 1/2 of the gravity loads and resist the entire wind loads on the
building. At the base of the tower, where the chevrons end, a diagonally braced transfer floor is required to transfer the wind shear(resisted by the chevron trusses) to the central concrete core.

In the typical floor framing beams run in one direction, girders in the other.
Diagonals at the corners are required for stiffening due to the unique chevron
vertical structure. Note the doubling of columns at the midpoints of the sides to
carry the concentrated vertical loading transferred by the chevrons. The coreabove the base is steel framed. Below it is reinforced concrete.
