Parametric Analysis of Convex and Concave Diagrid Structures: Interaction of Building Envelope and Floor Systems
摘要
This study investigates the impact of varying diagrid configurations on the interaction between the composite floor system and diagrid structure under both ambient and elevated temperatures. Using parametric analysis, the influence of different diagrid angles between key structural elements—edge beams, floor beams, and diagrid components—was evaluated to capture changes in structural behaviour. The findings revealed that diagrid topology significantly affects thermal expansion and force distribution, with substantial differences observed between ambient and elevated temperatures. This emphasizes the importance of considering both diagrid geometry and temperature conditions in fire safety design to enhance the stability and resilience of high-rise buildings.
