Approximate Analysis of Framed Tube Structures for Static Parabolic Shape Lateral Loads by Masooud Mahmoudabadi, Seyed mohammad Reza Hasani, mohammad Zaefi

“…According to increase of population in cities, tall buildings and especially framed tube structures have been become interesting for structural engineers. Framed structure act primarily like cantilevered box beams and since they generally have much larger lateral dimensions than the internal shear wall cores, they are more effective in resisting the overturning moments of the lateral loads. …”
