A comprehensive design reference, this book guides engineers to visualize, conceptualize, and realize structural systems for tall buildings that are elegant and economical. Integrating the design of steel and composite buildings in one volume, it addresses wind and earthquake engineering, code provisions, and detailing techniques to make structures as earthquake-resistant as possible. Forty case studies highlight aspects of conceptualization that are key in the design of tall and ultra-tall buildings. The author demonstrates how to use imperfect information, basic strength of material concepts, and conceptual thinking to estimate the answers to larger and more complex structural design problems.
