Engineering schools are accessories after the fact. When have you heard any "experts" discuss how the steel has to be distributed down skyscrapers?
How can ChatGPT figure it out?
=======================
The distribution of steel in a skyscraper more than 1,000 feet tall is generally such that the majority of the steel is concentrated in the lower sections of the building. This is because the lower portions must bear the weight of the entire structure above them, requiring more robust and stronger materials. Here is a generalized breakdown of how the steel might be distributed by percentage in each 10% segment of the building's height:
1. Bottom 10% (0-10%): Approximately 25-30% of the total steel
2. 10-20%: Approximately 15-20% of the total steel
3. 20-30%: Approximately 10-15% of the total steel
4. 30-40%: Approximately 8-10% of the total steel
5. 40-50%: Approximately 7-8% of the total steel
6. 50-60%: Approximately 5-7% of the total steel
7. 60-70%: Approximately 4-5% of the total steel
8. 70-80%: Approximately 3-4% of the total steel
9. 80-90%: Approximately 2-3% of the total steel
10. Top 10% (90-100%): Approximately 1-2% of the total steel
These percentages are illustrative and can vary depending on the specific design, structural requirements, and architectural choices of the building. The key point is that the lower sections require significantly more steel to support the structure, while the amount of steel needed decreases as you move higher up the building. - ChatGPT
