•The tapered form resulted from structural
concepts to reduce cost and decrease the
"sail effect“ of wind loads.
•The tapered form is also accredited to the
zoning of building functions with offices, which
require more open floor area on the lower
levels, then a zone of efficiency apartments
that require a deeper plan than the multi-bedroom dwellings at the top that have more
rooms requiring eterior frontage.
•The unique diagonal bracing, an idea used
earlier by !# in the $lcoa %uilding in !an
&rancisco of the same year, is the result of astructural concept to achieve maimum wind
bracing with minimum steel.

STRUCTURE
•'-braces used in the fa(ade.•The construction was designed by the engineer
&azlur )ahn and architect %ruce *raham from!+idmore, wings #errill. &azlur )ahn
devised the frame-tube system, which he also
implemented in the sears tower.
•This new construction method was made
possible by new technologies, li+e more
advanced software and new developments in
steel. iagonal shaped braces
•ew construction method, made possible for
)ahn to design constructions which could resistthe strong wind forces more effectively by having
the forces absorbed by all three dimensions of
the building.
