Abstract
This invention is to transmit the horizontal force between the general floor portion and skip floor efficiently, to avoid the damage to the boundary part between the skip floor structure and the general floor portion in the event of an earthquake or the like, and can heighten the degree of freedom in design by reducing restrictions on the building form. As a solution, skip floor structure of this invention has the bellyband beams (5) constructed at the same height level as the floor beams (1) above or below the outer peripheral floor beams (3) of skip floor (4). In addition, transmission beams (10) for transmitting horizontal force from the outer peripheral floor beams (3) to the bellyband beams (5) are interposed at key points between the outer peripheral floor beams (3) and the bellyband beams (5).
Claims6
A skip floor structure comprising:
- a bellyband beam constructed above or below an outer peripheral floor beam of a skip floor at the same height level as a floor beam of a general floor portion;
- and
- transmission beams for transmitting horizontal force from the outer peripheral floor beam to the bellyband beam interposed at key points between the bellyband beam and the outer peripheral floor beam.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
