Project details

Technical Data

  • Height: 170 m
  • Number of storevs: 44
  • Gross floor area: 45,000 m2

Description

The structure is composed of a central reinforced concrete core and 18 outer columns, oblique with respect of the floors since they follow the shape of the facade; both vertical loads and the change of their inclination at each floor determine a great torsion moment in the core, and great shear stresses, especially in the lintels corresponding to openings.

The central core collaborates with outer columns against wind and seismic forces, by means of solidfloor slabs, prestressed in some cases.
