Description

Enter a brief paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) describing the features of your proposed design that you'd like to highlight here...

For the TwitBook tower, a structural model of the interior beams, columns, beam systems is shown. Along with those visible items, structural walls were added along the two stair shafts and the elevator shaft. The floors are structural floors. Structural foundation types used under the first floor are: slab on grade, wall and isolated. Due to the unique rotation of the building, each system of beams and beam systems are different from all the other floors. Cantilever beams and special beam systems were used in the areas that experienced the rotations. The interior of the building that does not feel the effects of the rotation, have the same beam and beam system layout as all floors for consistency and ease of construction.
