Abstract: The project aims to evaluate the design and construction of four distinct 35-storey commercial high-rise buildings, focusing on two Reinforced Concrete (RC). Each building will be scrutinized based on criteria including structural stability, efficiency, flooring systems, structural frames, economic viability, and construction time. Structural stability and efficiency will be assessed concerning resistance to lateral and vertical loads, material utilization, and overall robustness. Flooring systems and structural frames, such as flat plate systems for RC buildings and steel moment resisting frames for steel structures, will be compared in terms of construction complexity, layout flexibility, and long-term maintenance needs. Moreover, an economic analysis will scrutinize construction costs per unit area, including materials, labour, equipment, and long-term expenses. The overall stiffness of each structure and construction time for the superstructure will also be evaluated, providing comprehensive insights to aid engineers and developers in making informed decisions when designing and constructing high-rise buildings.
By conducting a holistic assessment, this project seeks to offer valuable insights into the structural performance, economic feasibility, and construction efficiency of different high-rise building types. Through careful analysis of factors such as stability, efficiency, economic viability, and construction time, engineers and developers can make informed decisions when designing and constructing high-rise buildings in urban environments. This comprehensive approach aims to optimize building design and construction processes, ensuring the development of safe, cost-effective, and efficient structures suited to the demands of modern urban landscapes..
Keywords: Structural efficiency, stability, cost effectiveness, sustainability.
