• Abstract:

  Tall Buildings Are Necessary In Cities Due To The Rapid Expansion Of Infrastructure To Support Contemporary Civilisation. The Issue Of The Buildings' Lateral Stability And Sway Must Be Addressed By Engineering Judgment As They Go Taller. The Outrigger And Belt Truss Structural Systems Are Two Examples Of Structural Systems That Have Developed Continually To Address Issues With Lateral Stability And Sway. To Reduce The Danger Of Both Structural And Non-structural Damage During Small Or Medium Lateral Loads Caused By Wind Or Earthquakes, The Outrigger System Is One Of The Most Effective Ways To Efficiently Control Excessive Drift Caused By Lateral Load. Strong-rise Structures Can Use This System As A Suitable Structure, Especially In Areas With Strong Seismic Activity Or Wind Load. This Study Examines The Effective Usage Of Belt Truss And Outrigger Systems For High-rise Concrete Buildings That Are Subjected To Seismic Or Wind Loads. To Determine The Lateral Displacement Reduction Associated With The Various Types Of Outrigger And Belt Systems In Different Forms At Varying Heights, 26-story Two-dimensional Models Of Outrigger And Belt Truss Systems Are Subjected To Seismic Load, Analysed, And Compared. The Purpose Of The Analysis Was To Examine The Impact And Functionality Of The Outrigger System In A 26-story Building. As The Building Rises In Height, The Outrigger System Is Installed At Various Levels. The Outrigger And Belt Truss Depths Are Maintained Constant Throughout All Models And Are Equivalent To The Normal Story's Height.
