So, like an arch, it would be stable if made a full circle? What if I finished the circle with support columns, made to mimic the steal of the elevator shafts, but without floors, so it still resembles a C. Does steal in this sense seem strong enough? So essentially, this would solve my problem? I was thinking this from the begining, but I had tried to ignore it. However, it really does take away from the uniqueness, as well as the appeal of the C shape.

Do you want it more out there than this one I made? Lol. :lol: I'll make it a giant dog, and leave the engineering to you. :P LMAO! :lol: :lol: :lol: Ooh look what I found, a building somewhat similar to mine:

Gunpost, I'm not entirely sure I understand your diagram. It looks like you're trying to make the building a circle. Here's another diagram to clear up possible confusion, if some exists. Anyways, would you care to elaborate on your diagram?

It would probably even be cheaper to make a Ghery-like building. But square is out, and boring. And in today's world of competition between buildings, the more abstract and out there, the better. Just look at Dubai. Anyways, I've noticed your point from the beginning, but more so along the lines that the floor space itself is only about as wide as the topmost section of the Sears Tower. Which is not very economic for leasers.

That's one of the things I need help with. Which is if that's plausible on this scale.

Yes, the floor plan would be a rectangle. With areas disturbed by glass. However, I haven't entirely worked out a core yet, or if one will even be possible, and also the internal columns could be tricky. You mean the small size of each tenant floor? And the disturbing glass?

They act as both. Inside there is a people mover. But can they really act as supports, are they in the right place? They however, unlike the elevator shaft, are only two sections wide, not 6, with a meeting point that adjoins all the elevator drop off areas to the two walkways. Seen from above:

Yep, this is officially the 3rd time on TIF. :P Well, I had this idea at school, and came home and furthered it on MS Paint. I'm hoping the general concept is pretty simple to understand. The main drawing is 2d, but it looks sort of like a 3d C. My question is, since there are plenty of physics people around here, is the building plausible? If you were to use the elevator also as support, would it work? Where else would support be needed to make this plausible (if it even is)? *Edit* Is anyone here a certified architect or engineer?

QFT I also hate how they are not as deep as regular keyboards and are very shallow so they make an annoying noise and have an annoying touch.

Lol, I think it was vandals targeting a random house. There were wet cotton balls thrown at our house too. :|

How can I watch it international ie. I'm in America, and I wanna watch Eurovision, how? Can I vote?

I was under the impression they were guarded 24/7, misread my bad. Ok, I agree with whoever said jail and the halfway house. :lol:

Agreed. Or else send them back to jail. But this is cheaper, and I'm all for whatever costs less of our tax dollars.

It was done with about an hour and half ago.

Pretty cool eh? Anyways, back to the point of the thread. Which was odd things that have woken you up or you've woken up to.

:D Lol? That's funny. :lol:

Lol, I was trapped indoors, protocol, the only chance of being on TV is that they may have saw me through the window. There were two bombs, ours was a two liter and the other was smaller, they were on either side of our drive way. I'd like to know why it was us, why out of everyone else on this street and in my city. :-k Oh well, they're going to finger print it I believe.

OMG they brought in the coolest robot I have ever seen to get the bomb. This thing was wicked awesome, I'll put up a pic soon for anyone interested.

I woke up just now to the sound of a firetruck out my window. I asked my mom why there was a firetruck, and she said someone had put a bomb aka a Molotov Cocktail in our yard last night. And apparently one exploded at our neighbors too. Now they're bringing in the bomb squad, state police, and news. They've blocked off our street, and I wanted to go out. :XD: It's just an odd thing to wake up to, I feel like I'm dreaming. So anyway, anyone have any experiences waking up to the oddest of things that can seem surreal?

I could make more. First step, acquire Viacom and the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) and merge them together. Privatize the whole thing.

You have a lot to learn young grasshopper.

Ooh, how do I set that up?

Lol, anyways this thread was practically shouting for that. BTW I love Mexico! Mexican culture is amazing! I'd give anything to have been in Mexico today celebrating Cinco de Mayo. :D
