Hanger Design
The building has a circular plan with a diameter of 15.24m (50') and a constant story height of 3.05m (10'). Floors 1 to 10 are supported at the center by a hollow circular reinforced concrete shear wall with a diameter of 4.88m (16') and at the perimeter by 12 identical hangers suspended from 12 story-high truss systems located at the twelfth story.
Design the hangers for a dead load of 3kN/sq.mand a live load of 4kN/sq.m assuming uniform section throughout the height of each hanger.
In order to take into account the effect of impact for hangers supporting floors, the assumed live load should be increased by 33 percent. Design Intensity of Load w = DL+1.33LL = 3+1.33x4 = 8.32 kN/m

The load-carrying tributary area for each beam is shaded in the plan. The load distribution on each radial beam is approximately trapezoidal, as shown in Fig., with inner intensity w2 and outer intensity w1.
