INTRODUCTON
Turning Torso is an apartment building located in Malmo, Swedia. This is

a skyscraper building that was established since February 14th, 2001 and began
operations on August 27th, 2005. Turning Torso has a floor of 27,000 m2, with a
height of 190m from the surface, consists of 54 floors with 2 basement floors.
Turning Torso is a tall building with sloping curves which is a realization
of architecture with mastery of structure and technology based on an
understanding of the philosophy of the natural character of each reference model.
The entire appearance of the building has a sloping impression as it will collapse
due to the illusion of instability, as if opposing the law of gravity.
Design of this building was designed by Santiago Calatrava called
Twisting Torso. This building on the bracing uses steel pillars that connect the
edges of buildings that cross each other bolted with a rigid diaphragm that is
designed to balance the shape. Such a structure will apply like a cantilever box
beam in a lateral force holding style. This is a solid immobile building constructed
in nine segments of five-story pentagons that twist relative to each other as it rises
that the topmost segment is twisted 90 degrees clockwise with respect to the
ground floor. Each floor consists of an irregular pentagonal shape rotating around
the vertical core, which is supported by an exterior steel framework. The two
bottom segments are intended as office space and segments three to nine house
147 apartments.
The windows in this building are made small, because by using the Biering
wall system. This building was built using a shear wall structure in the form of the
core of the building plus an outer frame. The outer triangle framework looks like
hanging is part of the tower structure. The exoskeleton continues from the bottom
up the buildings made of steel. This frame is connected to the building column by
binding to the secondary tube. This outer frame has the function of resisting
horizontal forces due to wind and vibration.

CASE STUDY
The design of Turning Tarso is based on a statue by Santiago Calatrava

called Twisting Torso The white marble torso is based on the human shape
when spinning. There are several differences of opinion about the number of
cubes that make up the Twisting Torso Torso statue. In the book, Sculpture
"Twisting Torso" in 1993 explained that the statue in the form of a human body
was composed of nine cubes. Whereas in Howeler's book (2003) the statue has
seven cubes which are arranged vertically. In the book Tzonis (2004) about the
work of the archaic Calatrava, Torso was moved like a model of nine cubes on
a small scale building.
The strongest opinion is explained in Birkhauser's book by Calatrava
(2003) with subtitles Rotating Torso I '(1985) and Rotating Torso II' (from
1991), each of which is well with stone made of white marble with chrome-
plated steel and strings for binding cube together. The main difference is the
number of the first stone statues from 1985 containing nine cubes, while the
second statue from 1991 contained three cubes, with the same proportion of 36
cm in prototype form.
Contractor CEO Turning Torso believes the first model, which is
composed of seven cubes with 133 meters high, will suffice, but causes the
sharp angle of the 90O window to be less of a challenge as the usual window
and wall angles are 90o standard. Then the contractor's CEO simulates the
addition of two cubes to the top, which is expected to reduce the problem of
sharp angles from the window and the wall can be reduced and provide a
sensation of staying at the Torso.
The contracting CEO contacted the prospective architect (Santiago
Calatrava), the prospecting building industry (NCC) and external consultant
(Dr. Koller) to discuss the Turning Tarso design with the addition of two cusps
from the initial design so that a total of 9 cubes were dropped as the basis for
Turning Tarso concoction. In addition, the three (Architects Santiago
Calatrava, NCC, and external consultants (Dr. Koller) were asked to provide
Turning Tarso's construction budget with an estimated time to build in the
same way, targeted to be completed by the end of 2002.

All three budgets are drawn up with total costs for development around
350 M. SEK, but other project costs such as administration and marketing are
abandoned and will be added by prospective HSB project owners. When the
cost is added to the construction cost the total project cost estimated at around
550M. SEK. Board meetings in October and November to discuss further the
design and total cost of Turning Tarso's project, the difference in opinion
regarding the number of "commercial areas" (which can generate income) with
buildings in the "non-commercial" area (for transportation and technical
installations only). The plan to increase the "commercial area" and related
construction is preferred because it is expected to get increased revenue even
though some parts must be revised such as the time to start the project
(February 2001) and completion (February 2003) and revisions to the project
estimation budget of 730 M. SEK. In mid-December 2000 Ingvar Nohlin was
trusted and was officially appointed by the board as the project manager to start
the project with an estimated budget of 730 M.SEK
On August 27, 2005, the skyscraper (Turning Torso) by the Spanish
Architect Santiago Calatrava was officially opened. The Turning Tarso Tower
reaches 190 meters (623 ft) high with 54 levels, besides that it is the tallest
building in Scandinavia and the second highest apartment building in Europe
after the 264-meter Triumph-Palace in Moscow.

DISCUSSION
 Structural Elements
1. Slab
The floor slab structure of the Turning Torso building is a triangle shaped
slab that is paired around the core of the Turning Tarso building. The
seismic shape is rotated 1.6 degrees for each floor following the
conceptual concept of a metaphorical approach in the form of a human
backbone that is rotating in a building Turning Torso.

2. Core
The core is located at the core of the building or in the middle of the
building Turning Torso which functions to channel the main load such as
the earthquake load that occurs at any time. The shape of the core in the
Turning Torso building is a 35 ft diameter concrete pipe, with a wall
thickness of 8 ft at the bottom and gradually shrinks at the top of the
building to a wall thickness of 1 ft.

3. Framework
Turning Torso building frame system is supported by steel analogous to
the spine as a load restraint and supporting shear force transfer to concrete
cores consisting of steel column frames located at each corner on each
floor and the addition of horizontal and diagonal elements that function as
stabilizers and plate connectors floor with a framework.

4. Foundation
The foundation is one of the structural elements of the building that
requires precise and efficient planning because the durability of a
skyscraper building is determined by the accuracy in choosing the type of
foundation to be used. Factors that affect the type of foundation in the
building are the nature of the soil (soil parameters) occupied by the
building, soil conditions (good, medium, or bad) and the function of a
building itself. In building Turning Torso the type of foundation used is a
type of pile foundation with a depth of 49 meters below the ground level.
The main factor in the selection of the type of pile foundation with a
depth of 49 m is to avoid bending or swaying in the building

CONCLUSION
Turning Torso is an apartment building located in Malmo, Swedia and is a

skyscraper building. Turning Torso is a tall building with sloping curves which is
a realization of architecture with mastery of structure and technology. The design
of Turning Tarso is based on a statue by Santiago Calatrava called Twisting Torso
The white marble torso is based on the human shape when spinning and there are
several differences of opinion about the number of cubes that make up the
Twisting Torso Torso statue.
Turning torso consists of four structural elements, there are slab, core,
framework, and foundation. Every structural element have different indicator. The
seismic shape of this building is rotated 1.6 degrees for each floor following the
conceptual concept of a metaphorical approach in the form of a human backbone
that is rotating in a building Turning Torso. The shape of the core in Turning
Torso building is a 35 ft diameter concrete pipe, with a wall thickness of 8 ft at the
bottom. Turning Torso building frame system is supported by steel analogous to
the spine. And the type of foundation used is a type of pile foundation with a
depth of 49 meters below the ground level.
