I would like to discuss methods to resist/manage wind loads and propose the best system for my project. and please justify the choice, also by two concrete load bearing systems and two steel load bearing systems need to be discussed with the relevant and clear photos and propose the most cost effective system.

 

Generally the load bearing systems can be classified in 4 types:

1) Rigid frame: Column+ Beam-slab

2) Braced Rigid Frame: Column, Beam-slab + shear walls (Plan frame + shear walls)

3) Rigid frame + flat slab: Column + flat slab (No beams)

4) Braced Rigid frame + flat slab: Column + flat slab +shear wall (No beams)
