DESIGN OF FLEXIBLE HlGH RISE STRUCTURE TO CATER TO HUMAN COMFORT CRITERIA AND STRUCTURAL STABILITY

This project is carried out to design flexible high rise building to cater to human
comfort and structural stability. The wind force can result in the vibration of the
building in which can induce the discomfortness to the occupants if the motion
experience exceeds the perception level. This project is carried out to analyze and
design high structure in Malaysia that meets the human comfort criteria. This project
will require knowledge of wind force and human perception threshold levels.
Acceleration of the wind is taken as the parameter to evaluate the human perception
level. The design and analysis are based on ASCE 7-05.Two models of high
structures in Malaysia have been chosen and analysis has been carried out on the
subjects.
