| Abstract | The invention is directed to new and improved structural concepts for so-called high-rise buildings, providing for optimum utilization of prefabricated apartment modules and providing for highly economic construction techniques and economic utilization of space. The structure is of generally peristylar form, in that all of the principal vertical support columns are located about the exterior of the structure. A unique arrangement is provided for supporting prefabricated apartment modules, comprising special horizontal support beams, extending transversely in the structure and which are supported at their ends by longitudinal beams engaging the vertical support columns. The transverse beams are so designed that their webs and flanges lie in two intersecting planes, and T-beams are ideally suited for this purpose. The prefabricated apartment modules are supported by their edges on the transverse beams, in such manner that the webs and flanges of the beams are received between very narrow vertical and horizontal clearance spaces between apartment modules. To great advantage, the longitudinal support beams of the peristylar structure are comprised of Vierendeel trusses located at alternate story levels of the structure and spanning a vertical distance of one story. The arrangement of Vierendeel trusses is structurally advantageous and has pleasing architectural characteristics. |
