A CORE IS A VERTICAL SPACE USED FOR CIRCULATION
AND SERVICES. IT MAY ALSO BE REFERRED TO AS A
CIRCULATION CORE OR SERVICE CORE. A CORE
ALLOWS PEOPLE TO MOVE BETWEEN THE FLOORS OF A
BUILDING, AND DISTRIBUTES SERVICES EFFICIENTLY TO
THE FLOORS.
THE PLACEMENT OF THE SERVICES CORE STEMS FROM
FOUR GENERIC TYPES
Contains:
• ELEVATOR SHAFTS
• ELEVATOR Lobbies
• STAIRCASES
• FIRE PROTECTED
LOBBIES
• TOILETS
• ANCILLARY ROOMS eg.
PANTRY,SPACE FOR
CLEANING MATERIAL
• RISER DUCTS
• M&E SERVICES PLANT
• WALLS

THE SERVICE CORE PROVIDES MEANS OF ACCOMODATING
VERTICAL M&E SERVICES RUNS, SUCH AS
• DUCT RISERS
• MECHANICAL PIPE RISES
• HYDRAULIC STACKS
• ELECTRICAL AND COMMUNICATIONS CABLING
• AIR HANDLING UNIT (A.H.U)
TOILETS
IN THE EVENT OF SINGLE

Major Types of
elevator
Definition advantage disadvantage
a. Hydraulic elevator: 1.powered
elevator
2.energy is
applied by
a liquid under
pressure in a cylinder
equipped with a
plunger or piston.
1. efficient, safer, and friendlier to
the environment.
2. Does not require brakes,
3. Can use very small motor to
pump fluid .
4. Very powerful
1. if there is a
catastrophic oil line
failure (it has
happened) the
elevator will drop
uncontrolled
2. limited to about 6 or 7
floors max.
b. Electric elevator: 1.energy is
applied by
electric driving
machine .
2.used in tall
buildings
1.Electric elevators consume less
energy than hydraulic elevators.
2.no. of floors are not limited
Failure of electricity
creates panic .
•Capsule lift: similar to
electric elevator.
Machine room is not essential largest version of electric
elevator.

9. ESCALATOR
• Speed is usually 90 or 120 fpm
• Standard widths are 32 to 48 in. between
handrails.
• A 32-in. escalator operating at 90 fpm can
transport between 5000 and 8000 persons
per hour.
• A 48-in. escalator operating at 120 fpm can
transport as many as 10000 persons per hour.
• The maximum angle of inclination of an
escalator to the horizontal floor level is 30
degrees with a standard rise up to about 60
feet (18 m).
STANDARDS FOR ESCALATOR

SCULPTED FOR EFFICIENCY
The wind tunnel test is used to find the most
beneficial scaling factor of about 55% and
rotation at 120°, which is account for the 24%
savings of the wind load working on the structure.
TECHNICAL INNOVATION
The concrete core acts with outriggers and super
columns are the advances science of super-high
rises.
VERTICAL COMMUNITY
Shanghai tower embodies a new concept of
super-tall building by emphasizing public spaces
at the atrium levels.
SUSTAINABLE ACIEVEMENTS
There are two lays of skin wrapping the entire
building. The atriums created by the skins
features as an insulation which keep the
temperature stable.

CONNECTION DESCRIPTION
• Complexity of stress state.
• Connections should be broken after the
destructiveness of members
• Different connections have different design
criteria, according to the variation of
structure members.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
• The chords of outrigger truss
• Gusset plates, 120mm thickness,

• The belts trusses
Type B: The Long Bolt Joint of the

Technical Feactures
• Since there exist
