Structural forms suitable for buildings in HK 6. Steel frame structure - building is lighter than usual RC structure due to the relative higher weight/strength ration of steel - construction cost is lower especially for buildings adopting high level of standardization - building is weak in rigidity due to steel is a more flexible (elastic) material when compare to RC - additional stiffening elements in the form of internal/external trusses, out-rigger or bracing members are often required to make the building structure more rigid - addition work is required to fire-protect the steel structure - building examples: The Center, China Bank Building
