The TCI Tower, an architectural and structural landmark, stands as the headquarters of the Telecommunication Company of Iran. Located along Hemmat Highway in northwest Tehran, this project comprises two identical 34-story towers, each designed with meticulous attention to structural integrity and seismic resilience.
Structural Excellence
With a total built-up area of 50,000 square meters per tower, the TCI Tower reaches an impressive height of 158 meters from the foundation. The structural design, led by Dr. Ali Razavi, incorporates a steel special moment frame as the primary lateral load-resisting system, ensuring superior stability against seismic forces. Additionally, a steel deck diaphragm system has been implemented to enhance the overall structural performance.
Innovative Seismic Design
One of the most distinctive aspects of this project is its advanced seismic engineering strategies, making it one of Tehran’s most resilient high-rise structures. Key highlights include:
✔ Seismic Structural Assessment – Thorough evaluations to ensure optimal seismic performance.
✔ Seismic Hazard Analysis – In-depth studies of potential earthquake impacts on the building.
✔ Near-Field Seismic Activity Consideration – Advanced modeling to address localized earthquake effects.
✔ Friction Rotational Dampers – Innovative damping systems to reduce seismic energy transmission.
✔ Nonlinear Time-History Analyses – Cutting-edge simulations to predict structural behavior under seismic loads.
A Benchmark in Structural Engineering
The TCI Tower is not just a corporate headquarters—it is a testament to engineering ingenuity and resilience. With its robust design and state-of-the-art seismic mitigation strategies, this project sets a new standard for high-rise structural excellence in Tehran.
This remarkable structure, with its combination of strength, innovation, and precision, showcases our expertise in delivering cutting-edge structural solutions for complex, high-rise developments.
