morallyobjected posted:every time I walk by that building (which is not often--I don't live in Seattle) I wonder what the gently caress the point was aside from whatever the architect claimed for a justification, whenever you see a weirdly shaped skyscraper in the united states it's often because the maximum permissible legal volume to build in is not a straight cuboid shape. for example, you could have a lot more space to build in above ground level than at ground level, because of 'air rights' and things like that. you may also get incentives for preserving open or green space at the ground surface, while still building out more volume above ground level

BrianBoitano posted:Another fun thing about the "beams near the outside" design was the need for a tuned mass damper. Basically, this is a huge counterweight in the upper floors which moves to cancel out any vibrations that get started. This was original design, and quickly caught on because besides making it safer it made taller buildings less vomit-inducing. lol, one of the articles I read mentioned they were like "ok well good thing we've got the mass damper ---wait gently caress what if there's a power outage that lasts longer than the backup generators can handle?"

Another reason to be jealous of South Korea: "LA Times this morning posted:SEOUL — Police say the body of Park Won-soon, the mayor of Seoul, has been found in the hills in the northern part of the city, more than seven hours after they launched a massive search for him. The discovery was made early Friday.
