Il reinforced concrete nel core si trova anche in questi documenti del MIT:

The core comprises steel beams and columns with reinforced concrete infill panels designed to share part of the gravity loads. The core was designed to resist vertical loads and was not assumed to transfer any lateral loads. The perimeter columns were tied to the core only by the truss-slab system and the horizontal forces were assumed to be resisted by the perimeter columns and their connecting spandrel beams.

The vertical steel and concrete core that forms the center of the “tube” supports approximately 60% of the total gravity load of the building, while the outside shell bears the remaining 40%. The towers were built very modularly and consisted of many prefabricated pieces, such as exterior panels, floor trusses etc.
