Title: Seismic Analysis of a Complicated High-Rise Building Wuhan Center
Abstract: This paper presents some analysis and design key points of a irregular plan and irregular elevation building structure Wuhan Center.The height of the building is 438 meters,and the height-width ratio is 7.88.The structural system is a mega column frame-tube-outrigger truss system under the 66rd floor,and the 8 middle columns are removed above the 66rd floor.Steel plate reinforced concrete wall is utilized at the bottom zone of the structure to decrease the thickness of the wall.The outer frame is also adjusted to meet the architectural effect and the minimum shear ratio that the outer frame should bear.Seismic performance objectives are set for main lateral force resisting members to insure the structural performance under moderate and rare earthquakes.
