Description

A diagonal support structure was made to carry loads through the center diagonal line of the structure. Trusses were used for vertical support as it moves from the lower to upper levels. The support structural walls go into the ground for stability. Structural support are missing in areas that are open to movement and to the elevator and stair shafts. Architectural building is used to replace these. The difference between the structural and architectural models is that the architectural model uses curtain walls system, which would mean the solid structural walls would most likely need to be replaced with beams.
