hi ppl....m a thesis student...doing my thesis on world trade centre....now my proposed building is a high rise(25 storied) structure with circular plan that gets reducing as we move in upwards so that we see a taper in elevation.....now my problem is the structure........i had thought of giving coloumns which also move in the same tapered angle along the periphery.........like a pyramid that tapers inside...........i decided this form as a taper in z axis is preferrable to withstand wind pressure..........does anyone here has any reference drawings of any material in this context that o may implement and which makes me sure of what m doing...............please....its very urgent....my submisiion is in less than a week......................

thankxx

Maybe you should look at the Swiss Re building in London
