Torre Mayor: Seismic-Resistant Design by Tomislav Šimag is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Torre Mayor is a 225m tall office tower under construction in Mexico City, Mexico. It utilizes an innovative seismic design approach including soil-structure interaction analysis, 3D computer modeling, and supplemental viscous damping elements to absorb seismic energy. The structural system forms a "trio" of lateral resistance through a braced frame perimeter, moment frame tube, and trussed core coupled with over 100 supplemental dampers. This provides redundancy to withstand Mexico City
