Tall Building Structures : Analysis and Design
The book is aimed at two different groups. First, as a result of the continuing activity in the design and construction of tall buildings throughout the world, it will be of value to practicing structural engineers. Second, by treating the material in a logical, coherent, and unified form, it is hoped that it can form the basis of an independent academic discipline, serving as a useful text for graduate student courses, and as an introduction to the subject for senior undergraduates. In writing the book, the authors are conscious of a debt to many sources, to friends, colleagues, and co-workers in the field, and to the stimulating work of those associated with the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, the successor to the International Committee for the Planning and Design of Tall Buildings, with whom they have been associated since its inception. A special privilege of working in a university is the opportunity to interact with fresh young minds. Consequently, above all, they acknowledge their indebtedness to the many research students with whom they have worked over the years, who have done so much to assist them in their progress. Many of their names figure in the References and Bibliography, and many are now recognized authorities in this field. The au thors owe them much.
