Though involved with several high rise building design and CD works, I still not sure about the connection between steel columns with reinforced concrete core.
Your link shows a number of valid ways of connecting a beam to a vertical shear wall.
To find out which connection type is the most appropriate for the given load design, wait for the first draft of structural CD's to come back to your desk. It really is an engineering item best left untouched by architects.
You can also call your engineer, but make sure you call before 5pm, and do expect a mostly mumbling response. There!
Yup, this is an engineering connection. The amount and type of load on the connection will determine how it is designed and how large it needs to be. Your link has the right idea.
I'm an Engineer, and I've been on the design team for several buildings with this structural system, and this is how we do it. You know, letting the Engineers design the engineering connections...
@5x%: yes that's the right answer. You are not legally qualified to design that connection. Even if you fully understood structural load analysis I doubt you'd have the time to do it between stair section-ing and toilet layout-ing.
You are always welcome to try it though. Expect a nice pat on your head and a lollipop from the structural guy...

Q: connection between steel column with reinforced concrete core

Does the link depict the right way to do it? See 7.

Thank you guys.
that's it? let the engineer do it? that's not the right answer...
Really %%%%%?

What is your method?
@5x%: yes that's the right answer. You are not legally qualified to design that connection. Even if you fully understood structural load analysis I doubt you'd have the time to do it between stair section-ing and toilet layout-ing.
