Abstract

Outrigger systems are highly efficient since they utilize the perimeter zone to resist lateral forces, similar to tubular systems. The entire structural weight can be reduced due to the system's significant lateral strength. Therefore, it is the most commonly selected structural system for tall and supertall buildings built in recent years. In this paper, issues regarding the differential shortening effect during construction of the outrigger system and the special joints used to solve these issues will be addressed. Additionally, the characteristics of wind and seismic loads in Korea will be briefly discussed. Lastly, buildings in Korea using an outrigger as their major structural system will be introduced and the structural role of the system will be analyzed.
