Preliminary Design of Tall Buildings Using Artificial Neural Networks

Author(s): Lila Khatiwada Naveed Anwar Thaung Htut Aung Jose A. Sy

Properly trained Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) based on data of existing buildings can provide a quick alternative for preliminary design and response estimation of new buildings, using basic architectural parameters.

HighlightsThe data collected from architectural drawings and structural design from code based design process of 38 buildings were used as inputs and target for each networks. The input data were taken from the architectural drawings. The target data were taken from the structural design results. A total of 14 input variables and a single target variable were chosen and trained for each network. The performance of networks with different architecture was evaluated in terms of mean square error (MSE) between actual output and target of data set. The best network was chosen with least MSE and highest correlation to training, testing and validation set. The following developed neural network models were employed to simulate the key design and response parameters of tall buildings directly from architectural parameters.

a. Model assessment for natural period of building (sec)

b. Model assessment for ratio of area of column by area of floor at top of podium level.

c. Model assessment for ratio of area of Core wall to area of floor at top of podium level

d. Model assessment for ratio of weight per unit floor area of tower (KN/m2)

e. Models assessment for ratio of weight of building per unit volume of tower (KN/m3).

f. Models assessment for thickness of Shear wall (m)

g. Models assessment for maximum story drift ratio

h. Models assessment for ratio of base shear to total weight of building.

AbstractThis study presents the outcome of an artificial neural-network based approach to directly determine design parameters based on experience gained from previously designed buildings, using both code-based and performance-based approaches. Artificial neural network models are trained to determine structural design indicators from architectural parameters. The proposed approach can not only provide means for quick estimation of design output, but can also provide a sanity check on code-based design output as well as performance-based design results.

•Artificial Neural Networks with supervised learning can be used in preliminary design of tall buildings to reliably predict the

key structural parameters from architectural drawings.

•Basic structural design and response parameters of new buildings are estimated from developed ANN models with reasonable

accuracy which can not only be used for starting design to determine appropriate member sizes but also to quickly check the

results of detailed structural design.

•Results of eight developed ANN models for 14 input variables, trained on data extracted from 40 buildings showed a reasonably

accurate predicting capacity for new buildings, when compared with results obtained from detailed structural design.

•Earthquake and wind loading parameters can also be added and can be utilized in simplified performance

assessment, if sufficient building data for different seismic zones and exposure conditions is

available.
