Steel Frame High Rise Buildings Structure Tubular Structural System

Tubular Structural System Steel Frame Buildings Fabricated Steel Structure Construction For Office Building

The tube is a system where, to resist lateral loads (wind, seismic, impact), a building is designed to act like a hollow cylinder, cantilevered perpendicular to the ground. The tube system can be constructed using concrete, steel or a composite of both. In its simplest form, closely-spaced columns are tied together with deep spandrel beams through moment connections as part of the external perimeter of the building. The rigid frame that this assembly of columns and beams forms results in a dense and strong structural ‘tube’ around the exterior. Since lateral loads can be resisted by this stiff exterior framing, interior columns can be located at the core and are fewer in number. The interior can be simply framed for gravity loads and floor space is left free from columns. This type of structural system consists of a Framed tube, a Trussed tube, Tube-in-tube, Bundled tube and a Hybrid system.

Features of the tubular structural system:

The tubular structural system evolved from the concept of a rigid frame system which is a three-dimensional frame capable of resisting all lateral loads of the facade structure.

The system consists of an inner basic arrangement surrounded by outer columns,

with the outer perimeter columns close together and connected to each other,

using deep beams that form a rigid frame.

Thus this arrangement creates a dense and strong structural wall along the exterior of the building.

The outer frame is designed to be strong enough to withstand lateral loads on the building,

thus allowing the interior of the building to withstand gravitational loads.

The inner columns are few in number and are located around the main structure.

The base frame and surrounding frames are spanned by beams or struts,

so that these members help transfer gravitational loads into the structure.

This mechanism increases the effectiveness of the circumferential tube to resist overturning moments formed due to lateral loads.

The main types of tubular structural systems are:

Framed tube system

Trussed tube system

Tube in tube system

Bundled pipe system

Hybrid tube system

Brief Introduction of Subsidiaries:

1. Hangzhou FAMOUS Steel Engineering Co.,ltd. focus on the Design & Construction of various Steel Buildings and Structural Steelworks fabrication. The company have received a lot of foreign projects ranging from warehouse buildings, multi-storey apartments, high rise office & hotel buildings, space framing theaters, triangle truss buildings, to steel bridges, handling machinery framing, power plant towers, mining production line steelworks, cement production line steelworks, petro-chemical rackings etc. Basically the company have the full capability to operate various large-scaled projects complex except the simple building project.

2. FASEC (Hangzhou) Window Wall Company specializes in the offer of various aluminum & glass-related products design/manufacture/supply & installation. We have successfully supplied quite a lot of insulated & laminated glass panes, windows, glass doors, curtain walls, partition walls, railings, louvers, grills, metal claddings etc not only in China but also around the world. Australian standard, British Standard, Europe standard, and American standard etc aluminum & glass facade products are in our main research & development range.

3. Hangzhou FASEC Building Material Company play the role of the bridging and lubricating with different customers of new building material requirement for roof wall floor and interiors. Our building material team always are on the way to research and develop new style building material to save cost and time of building industrial customers. USEU Metal factory is its strong manufacturing backup force, and our own engineering team can offer various technical supports too.
