ABSTRACT

Earthquakes are one of the most frequent and most destructive natural disasters. How to control production costs while reducing the risk of damage has been a problem in recent years. This article provides solution for this problem, which discusses the structural system of super high-rise symmetrical twin tower conjoined buildings and the seismic design of such buildings in combination with existing architectural design examples. Through model-making, we observe the role of vibration absorber and the twin-tower structure in energy absorption and shock absorption, and improve the vibration absorber by adding replacement limiter to summarize the advantages of reducing earthquake damage to the building by designing and using the vibration absorber. The conclusion is that putting the vibration absorber in the super high-rise building has advantages of better shock absorption effect and low cost compared with other shock absorption measures.
