Reseña del editor:

Many high-rise buildings have been constructed in recent decades, particularly in Western Pacific Rim countries. Some examples of these include the Grand Gateway at Xi Hui and the Tomorrow Square, both in Shanghai, the Xiamen Post and Telecommunication Building in China, the Petronas (twin) Towers in Malaysia and the Shanghai World Financial Center. The last three are well over 1,000 feet in height, with the Petronas Towers measuring 1,483 feet tall and the Shanghai World Financial Center standing at 1,509 feet tall.
While these certainly represent the ultimate challenges in the structural aspects of buildings, challenges remain in the structural aspects of buildings at various height. This volume is a comprehensive treatment of the issues and the advanced techniques involved in building and bridge structures. Numerous illustrative examples of the techniques involved are included.
