| dc.description.abstract | A transfer structure (TS) is a structure that alters the load path of the gravity loads, shifting the line of thrust laterally to a different vertical alignment. Transfer structures are introduced in buildings that feature discontinuities in some columns or walls and where a direct load path to the foundations is not possible. They usually represent major elements of the structure and their impact on building cost and construction time can be substantial. This paper presents an overview of existing transfer systems and provides guidance on their design and construction. Extensive research on buildings with transfer structures all over the world was carried out (more than 100 examples were analyzed) with the aim of developing a rational typology of these structures. The results can be broken down into five main types: BEAM, TRUSS, INCLINED STRUT, PLATE, and ARCH & TIE. | pt_PT |
