$$A location of the service core in any tall building is one of the most fundamental design

decisions, impacting efficiency, structural systems, services, environmental

performance, views, access and aggress, and more. Yet, despite the opportunities

available to the design team, the central core skyscraper has remained a ubiquitous

typology throughout history, predominantly due to the spatial and structural efficiencies

such an arrangement offers$.[$Source: Oldfield & Doherty, $2019).$

The service core of tall buildings is classified into the following types: $----$

Central core,

Perimeter core,

Mixed core,

Offset core.

Identified in the photos attached is a building least $5$ storey high.

In a report format:
