Introduction
High-rise commercial buildings are the icons of modern
society. These symbolize the power of commerce in the
present world system.
These also add the 3rd dimension to the city.
In addition, at the micro level, having an office at an
attractive high-rise building gives additional advantage to
the business in terms of better customer confidence and
corporate identity.
Definition
A high-rise building is defined as a building 35 meters or greater in
height
Generally constructed using a structural frame, provided with high-
speed elevators,
Although originally high-rises were designed for commercial purposes,
 many high-rises are now planned for multiple uses.
 Thats means, the combination of office, residential, retail and hotel
space etc.
•It must be divided into multiple levels
•of at least 2 meters height.
•If it has fewer than 12 such internal
•levels, then the highest undivided portion must not exceed 50% of the
total height
•It must be divided into multiple levels

FAR RULES ANALYSIS
TYPE:
SHOPING CUM OFFICE BUILDING
According to BNBC GADJET 2008 the building type is f
FAR (Floor Area ratio):
Set Back
For according high rise building the required set back follows-
1. From three sides of the site is min. 3m/10ft.
2. There will be no built form within 4.5m(14.7ft) from the mid point of
access road or 1.5m (5ft) from front side.
3.Required green space is the 50% of the total site without any shading
from the built form.
Ground Coverage:
Built area (on the site) x100
Total land area
Mandatory green space: mandatory setback-(minus)
mandatory paved area
FAR RULES ANALYSIS
 According to rules we can provide 50% paved area from uncovered
spaces
 Shades on this paved area can be provided where the minimum
height should be 13(4m) from ground level or 10(3m) from plinth
level.
 The uncovered ground of the site must used for guard room & parking.
Guard room:
From roadside boundary wall the height of the guard room will be
8(2.5m) from finished ground level & the maximum Floor area will be
53 sft (5sqm).
Boundary wall:
Maximum height for boundary wall is  (2.75m) . For rear & side walls
solid height is  (1.75m) & Perforated height is 3.28 (1m).
Balcony:
The height of the railing of the balcony will be max. 3. or 1200mm. The
balcony
must not extend above the set back area.
Podium
The height of the podium will be maximum 40 (12m). This height is
determined with parapet. According to BNBC, MGC of the podium will be
75%. In this case the MGC of the high rise tower will be recessed to
37.5%.

There are two basic sources for high-rise buildings'
load actions-
# Geophysical load (result of gravitational,
meteorological &
Seismological changes).
# Man-made load (generated by cars, elevators,
machines etc.

Core positions can be
classified into three types
Central core
Double core
Single core
X-SHAPED
OPEN FORMS
Single core
Double core
Central core
Typology of Core
central core
Advantage:
i.it allows all window space to be utilized as rental office space.
ii.Permits offices to varying depth to receive natural light.
iii.It is suitable in terms of access and in some cases may be
equidistant from all sides.
iv.Simplifies area division.
Disadvantage:
1. The central interior location limits the depth of the offices.
ii. It requires an access corridor around its perimeter.
Some examples of the central core:
Equitable Building
Place Victoria office Tower
Alcoa Building etc
All the above building cores are shown later. central core
Typology of Core
Off center core
Advantage:
It permits all windows and the building perimeter space to
be used for offices.
It has more flexibility depth and arrangements of spaces.
This can be particularly desirable where large open spaces
are required
Disadvantages:
Some problems of accessibility
This is less suitable for the distant spaces and the corners
of the building.
A long corridor for accessibility is required.
Less flexibility of tenant (rentel) distribution.
Off center core
Typology of Core
Exterior core
Advantages:
It leaves the entire floor area of the building available for tenant use.
The core does not complicate the floor plan either functionally of
structurally.
Maximum flexibility is achieved with respect to tenant distribution of
office depth and plan layout.
Disadvantages:
In case of multi-tenant occupancy, the core requires a
long access corridor thus the flexibility of tenant distribution is
reduced.
The core occupied desirable window spaces, so that, the
offices immediately adjacent to the core may not receive any natural
light.
Exterior core
Typology of Core
Double core
Advantage:
The double cores are placed on the hot sides (east,
west) thus, provide buffer zones, and minimum air-conditioning is
required.
The window openings run through north and south.
Lift lobbies, stairways and toilets are naturally
ventilated and a view out is possible.
The double core has more flexibility in floor area division.
Disadvantages:
If the building is not that big, then it becomes costly.
Some examples of the central core:
One first national plaza
Overseas Chinese Bank etc.

Site Context
As is widely known, in Europe any new building is
required to blend in with the other buildings in a street.
The RWE Tower has the main building set back from the
street, along with the pergola the height of which is
aligned with the eaves of neighbouring houses. There
was still need to obtain the special sanction of the
municipal authorities to construct the skyscraper. As
Achim Nagel, one of the IOK architects, explained,
churches dating back to ancient times were the only tall
buildings. The 12m height of the tower, including an
aerial on the top, is the highest point in North-Rhine
Westphalia, but does not look isolated, when it is seen
from anywhere in the city. Its abstract and clear
external appearance is essentially in harmony with the
row of stores and houses in the street.
Birds eye view of building with site
RWE TOWER
Entrance Hall with
Sense of Space
The elevator shafts are
housed in a tower,
detached from the main
tower, so the ground
floor has ample open
space to share a
continuity with the
theater and the city
park. On ts level, the
columns are a significant
factor in the design, to
indicate that the
building is supported by
them, whereas a sense
of space is available at
the same time. As with
the columns, the walls
are rough concrete, and
the surface is coated
with water paint for
protection.
Building Form
When compared to other prismatic forms, the cylindrical shape is
ideal in terms of the relationship between exterior surface and
interior volume. It also optimizes aerodynamics, energy needs,
surface distribution, and choice of prefabricated elements.
structure
Composite structure grow in this tower building. Frame
structure shows on the interior. Shear wall also support with
column beam frame.
Transparent Elevators
Four ordinary elevator shafts are installed in an independent
tower built along side of the main building. Owing to their
outside location, people can easily find where they are.

RWE TOWER
Sunny Boardroom on the Top Floor
On the top floor, the 2th floor of the RWE Tower, there is a boardroom for
gatherings of the RWE Group executives from around the world. The ceiling of
the boardroom is fitted with a large toplight, and the sunlight from it is
regulated by an electric curtain. Not only its facade, but also its partition panels
are mostly made of glass, so as to enhance to view of the surrounding area.
•Natural Ventilation
The double skin allows natural ventilation in the tower.
Even the upper workspaces can enjoy natural air
control without having to fight wind gusts. Users can
control their own environment.
The natural ventilation in a high-rise could give rise to
the following fears: Actually, natural ventilation may
be restricted or influenced by such constructional
parameters as:
•facade layout,
•ventilation slits or louvres,
•air-tightness of windows and doors,
•design of doors (revolving doors,
opening and closing mechanisms).
Sun shading & thermal storage
When the solar radiation is strong, the temperature inside the double-skin rises
as in a greenhouse. model proved that the hotter the facade became relative to
the surrounding air, the more remarkable the convection effect that was achieved,
so as to carry out the sunshading function. Of course, the thermal storage effect
becomes vital, when there is a need to warm the room as in the winter season.
Double Skin
The main concern of the design of this 31-storey cylindrical tower is natural
ventilation. This is achieved by its double-leaf facade, which is intended to
provide good natural ventilation for perimeter office areas. The space
inside the facade is supplied with outside air through a meandering
arrangement of intake and exhaust louvres.
The double skin allows the RWE Tower to "breathe". It consists of an
exterior sheet made of fixed glass panels - 2 x 3.m modules that permit
air circulation through corresponding slots, and an interior sheet with
operable panels. A solar protection system is installed between both layers,
which are 50cm apart. Strips, placed on the setting lines for the exterior
facade modules, are perforated on the right side and solid on the left side,
at the lower level. The disposition is reversed on the upper level, next to the
roof, which guarantees a minimum diagonal of ventilation and prevents the
return of recently evacuated air back into the spaces. The interior layer of
the double skin is a conventional facade, insulated by collapsible panels that
can be controlled manually.

  • 3. Introduction High-rise commercial buildings are the icons of modern society. These symbolize the power of commerce in the present world system. These also add the 3rd dimension to the city. In addition, at the micro level, having an office at an attractive high-rise building gives additional advantage to the business in terms of better customer confidence and corporate identity.
  • 4. Definition A high-rise building is defined as a building 35 meters or greater in height Generally constructed using a structural frame, provided with high- speed elevators, Although originally high-rises were designed for commercial purposes,  many high-rises are now planned for multiple uses.  Thats means, the combination of office, residential, retail and hotel space etc. •It must be divided into multiple levels •of at least 2 meters height. •If it has fewer than 12 such internal •levels, then the highest undivided portion must not exceed 50% of the total height •It must be divided into multiple levels •of at least 2 meters height. •If it has fewer than 12 such internal •levels, then the highest undivided portion must not exceed 50% of the total height

FAR RULES ANALYSIS TYPE: SHOPING CUM OFFICE BUILDING According to BNBC GADJET 2008 the building type is f FAR (Floor Area ratio): Set Back For according high rise building the required set back follows- 1. From three sides of the site is min. 3m/10ft. 2. There will be no built form within 4.5m(14.7ft) from the mid point of access road or 1.5m (5ft) from front side. 3.Required green space is the 50% of the total site without any shading from the built form. Ground Coverage: Built area (on the site) x100 Total land area Mandatory green space: mandatory setback-(minus) mandatory paved area
  • 8. FAR RULES ANALYSIS  According to rules we can provide 50% paved area from uncovered spaces  Shades on this paved area can be provided where the minimum height should be 13(4m) from ground level or 10(3m) from plinth level.  The uncovered ground of the site must used for guard room & parking. Guard room: From roadside boundary wall the height of the guard room will be 8(2.5m) from finished ground level & the maximum Floor area will be 53 sft (5sqm). Boundary wall: Maximum height for boundary wall is  (2.75m) . For rear & side walls solid height is  (1.75m) & Perforated height is 3.28 (1m). Balcony: The height of the railing of the balcony will be max. 3. or 1200mm. The balcony must not extend above the set back area. Podium The height of the podium will be maximum 40 (12m). This height is determined with parapet. According to BNBC, MGC of the podium will be 75%. In this case the MGC of the high rise tower will be recessed to 37.5%.
  • 9. FAR RULES ANALYSIS Re Escape: Lift, escalators etc will not count as fire escape elements. Fire escape should be located on the exterior faade of the building. Fire escape must not route to basement. Ramp: Slope of ramp should be 1:8 preparation length of the ramp should be minimum 14 (4.25m) clear height of the ramp must be minimum 8.

  • 18. Core positions can be classified into three types Central core Double core Single core X-SHAPED OPEN FORMS Single core Double core Central core
  • 19. Typology of Core central core Advantage: i.it allows all window space to be utilized as rental office space. ii.Permits offices to varying depth to receive natural light. iii.It is suitable in terms of access and in some cases may be equidistant from all sides. iv.Simplifies area division. Disadvantage: 1. The central interior location limits the depth of the offices. ii. It requires an access corridor around its perimeter. Some examples of the central core: Equitable Building Place Victoria office Tower Alcoa Building etc All the above building cores are shown later. central core
  • 20. Typology of Core Off center core Advantage: It permits all windows and the building perimeter space to be used for offices. It has more flexibility depth and arrangements of spaces. This can be particularly desirable where large open spaces are required Disadvantages: Some problems of accessibility This is less suitable for the distant spaces and the corners of the building. A long corridor for accessibility is required. Less flexibility of tenant (rentel) distribution. Off center core
  • 21. Typology of Core Exterior core Advantages: It leaves the entire floor area of the building available for tenant use. The core does not complicate the floor plan either functionally of structurally. Maximum flexibility is achieved with respect to tenant distribution of office depth and plan layout. Disadvantages: In case of multi-tenant occupancy, the core requires a long access corridor thus the flexibility of tenant distribution is reduced. The core occupied desirable window spaces, so that, the offices immediately adjacent to the core may not receive any natural light. Exterior core
  • 22. Typology of Core Double core Advantage: The double cores are placed on the hot sides (east, west) thus, provide buffer zones, and minimum air-conditioning is required. The window openings run through north and south. Lift lobbies, stairways and toilets are naturally ventilated and a view out is possible. The double core has more flexibility in floor area division. Disadvantages: If the building is not that big, then it becomes costly. Some examples of the central core: One first national plaza Overseas Chinese Bank etc. Double core

RWE TOWER Location: Essen, Germany Client: Hochtief AG Occupier: RWE AG Date of Construction: 14-1 Architect: Ingenhoven, Overdieck, Kahlen & Partner Building type: Office building  administrative headquarters for the electric company Building Envelope: Josef Gartner and Co. No. of stories: 31 Gross Area: 35,000m2 Site map Location of the building RWE tower Aalto theater Site Context As is widely known, in Europe any new building is required to blend in with the other buildings in a street. The RWE Tower has the main building set back from the street, along with the pergola the height of which is aligned with the eaves of neighbouring houses. There was still need to obtain the special sanction of the municipal authorities to construct the skyscraper. As Achim Nagel, one of the IOK architects, explained, churches dating back to ancient times were the only tall buildings. The 12m height of the tower, including an aerial on the top, is the highest point in North-Rhine Westphalia, but does not look isolated, when it is seen from anywhere in the city. Its abstract and clear external appearance is essentially in harmony with the row of stores and houses in the street. Birds eye view of building with site
  • 44. RWE TOWER Entrance Hall with Sense of Space The elevator shafts are housed in a tower, detached from the main tower, so the ground floor has ample open space to share a continuity with the theater and the city park. On ts level, the columns are a significant factor in the design, to indicate that the building is supported by them, whereas a sense of space is available at the same time. As with the columns, the walls are rough concrete, and the surface is coated with water paint for protection. Building Form When compared to other prismatic forms, the cylindrical shape is ideal in terms of the relationship between exterior surface and interior volume. It also optimizes aerodynamics, energy needs, surface distribution, and choice of prefabricated elements. structure Composite structure grow in this tower building. Frame structure shows on the interior. Shear wall also support with column beam frame. Transparent Elevators Four ordinary elevator shafts are installed in an independent tower built along side of the main building. Owing to their outside location, people can easily find where they are. Function of the core 1. Stair 2. Lobby & elevator 3. Switch room 4. store Structure grid Elevator blow up Exterior elevator
  • 45. RWE TOWER Sunny Boardroom on the Top Floor On the top floor, the 2th floor of the RWE Tower, there is a boardroom for gatherings of the RWE Group executives from around the world. The ceiling of the boardroom is fitted with a large toplight, and the sunlight from it is regulated by an electric curtain. Not only its facade, but also its partition panels are mostly made of glass, so as to enhance to view of the surrounding area. •Natural Ventilation The double skin allows natural ventilation in the tower. Even the upper workspaces can enjoy natural air control without having to fight wind gusts. Users can control their own environment. The natural ventilation in a high-rise could give rise to the following fears: Actually, natural ventilation may be restricted or influenced by such constructional parameters as: •facade layout, •ventilation slits or louvres, •air-tightness of windows and doors, •design of doors (revolving doors, opening and closing mechanisms). Sun shading & thermal storage When the solar radiation is strong, the temperature inside the double-skin rises as in a greenhouse. model proved that the hotter the facade became relative to the surrounding air, the more remarkable the convection effect that was achieved, so as to carry out the sunshading function. Of course, the thermal storage effect becomes vital, when there is a need to warm the room as in the winter season. Double Skin The main concern of the design of this 31-storey cylindrical tower is natural ventilation. This is achieved by its double-leaf facade, which is intended to provide good natural ventilation for perimeter office areas. The space inside the facade is supplied with outside air through a meandering arrangement of intake and exhaust louvres. The double skin allows the RWE Tower to "breathe". It consists of an exterior sheet made of fixed glass panels - 2 x 3.m modules that permit air circulation through corresponding slots, and an interior sheet with operable panels. A solar protection system is installed between both layers, which are 50cm apart. Strips, placed on the setting lines for the exterior facade modules, are perforated on the right side and solid on the left side, at the lower level. The disposition is reversed on the upper level, next to the roof, which guarantees a minimum diagonal of ventilation and prevents the return of recently evacuated air back into the spaces. The interior layer of the double skin is a conventional facade, insulated by collapsible panels that can be controlled manually. facade Facade detail Double skin
