Modifying the form and geome- try, such as tapering, setback and aerodynamic form are considered architectural concepts; whereas, determining appropriate lateral-load based structural systems, such as tube systems, core-supported outrig- ger and diagrid systems are structural concepts. In this paper, a design method of tall buildings to consider the impact of the architectural and structural design strategies to reduce wind effect and control the re- sponse of tall buildings is presented. This method of design can also consider the interrelationship between form and geometry of tall buildings and structural systems by implementing a computational workbench for architectural parametric design module, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), structural analysis program (ETABS) and also optimization procedure. The main object...

Similarly, enhancement of wind power production in high-rise architecture via optimization of buildings' aerodynamic behaviour has been problematically incorporated in the schematic design stage. Therefore, these efforts have not been resulted in creation of a design agenda and aerodynamic guidelines for form generation in early design phases. This paper, accordingly, discusses a parametric design procedure to optimize wind power production in high-rise office buildings via aerodynamic transformations and refinement of form. The paper's intention also includes the development of fundamental architectural strategies and guidelines for the design process of tall office buildings integrated wind turbines.

Yet, the effectiveness of the proposed solutions are highly dependent on early integration of wind power systems with the architectural design process. Existing methods for aerodynamic evaluation of building forms are often not suitable for early design stage due to time and cost restrictions. As a result, the indicated methods often use over simplified conditions that omit the effect of local climate, surrounding terrain and building orientation. This paper, thus, intends to evaluate the effect of mentioned parameters on the annual energy output of a BIWT.

Modifying the form and geometry, such as tapering, setback and aerodynamic form are considered architectural concepts; whereas, determining appropriate lateral-load based structural systems, such as tube systems, core-supported outrigger and diagrid systems are structural concepts. In this paper, a design method of tall buildings to consider the impact of the architectural and structural design strategies to reduce wind effect and control the response of tall buildings is presented. This method of design can also consider the interrelationship between form and geometry of tall buildings and structural systems by implementing a computational workbench for architectural parametric design module, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), structural analysis program (ETABS) and also optimization procedure. The main objective of this innovative method is to create a comprehensive collaboration among architects, structural engineers, fluid and wind engineers in a non-linear back and forth process to find the most efficient geometry and form with minimum wind impact and also minimum weigh of the structure for a tall building.
