Abstract

In this paper there are presented three structures from a locative complex which will be built in the Transilvania University Campus Braşov. In order to reduce the general torsion, for each structure several successive modelling of the lateral stiffness have been performed, until the torsion effect introduced by the difference between the centre of mass and the centre of stiffness was minimal. The structural analysis was realized on structures modelled with stairs and elevator openings in the concrete floor, thereby the lateral stiffness and the effect of these elements were taken into consideration.
