A Comparative Analysis of Physical Glass Characteristics for a Tall Building Facade Design

From late 1880s based on Chicago School Style, tall buildings have been planned and constructed in major cities by recognizing as one of the solutions to release required office spaces in limited and higher land value downtown area. Consequently, tall buildings have became a powerful expression of architecture in the modern civilization due to their huge mass and vertical spaces. This dramatic phenomenon has rapidly spread to all over the world which want to be modern city. Specially, the center of a typhoon is Asia zone as well as Korea, China and Dubai. Basically, the design of tall building needs a spacial approach to form, space, vertical movement, construction and etc comparing with low-rise buildings. Because tall buildings have a different characters for natural system such as strong wind and huge thermal effect. Hence, to achieve proper tall building facade with architectural aesthetics, the design should understand a physical phenomenon for a wind movement and a thermal appearance such as the gravity is a natural phenomenon. Therefor, the target of the study is to understand a physical phenomenon and application on tall building's facade design. It is very important work to know how design are applied for tall building's facade design by a wind and the sun. So, this study starts with a basic research of a general facade design topic with wind and the sun. And to get the technical data for relationship between wind force, thermal issue and glass performance which is one of the facade component part, this study will use a computer simulation method. It will give a chance to inform design methodology for tall building's facade design before starting initial facade design. Also it will make a database to understand what facade design for wind and the sun.
