Concept of an Outrigger System
The idea of outrigger in a building structure is to couple the perimeter and the
internal structure as a whole to resist the lateral load

Many small and slender boats have similar outrigger system which helps it to stay
stable even of there is a large disturbing moments caused by moving person

CONCLUSION
Outrigger is a connecting and tying member between two structural member,
which is generally core of building and peripheral columns
The outrigger system typically engages the core with columns to increase the
lateral stability and stiffness of a building
