The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat's Outrigger Working
Group has addressed the pressing need for design guidelines for
outrigger systems with this guide, now in its second edition,
providing a comprehensive overview of the use of outriggers in
skyscrapers. This guide offers detailed recommendations for
analysis of outriggers within the lateral load resisting systems of
tall buildings, for recognising and addressing effects on building
behaviour and for practical design solutions. It also highlights
concerns specific to the outrigger structural system, such as
differential column shortening and construction sequence impacts.
In this edition, a new chapter explores the use of 'hybrid'
outrigger systems that can 'tune' the stiffness of outrigger
trusses, use leverage of the outrigger arms to drive non-linear
damping devices, and use yielding materials that absorb seismic
energy. Several project examples are explored in depth,
illustrating the role of outrigger systems in tall building designs
and providing ideas for future projects. The guide details the
impact of outrigger systems on tall building designs, and
demonstrates ways in which the technology is continuously advancing
to improve the efficiency and stability of tall buildings around
the world. The new second edition features updated design
considerations to reflect current practices, expanded systems
organisation and examples, and updated recommendations and
suggestions for future research.
