Written by a premier designer of tall and ultra tall buildings, this work explains fundamental principles and state-of-the-art technologies for building vertical RC structures as sound as they are eloquent. It bridges the gap between intuition and experience and computer skills and analytical techniques, and is written to the latest U.S. building codes, including ASCE/SEI 7-05, IBC-06/09, ACI 318-05/08, and ASCE/SEI 41-06. The book covers lateral loading, seismic vulnerability and retrofit design, and performance based design-trends, and is illustrated by dozens of case studies throughout the world, many concerning buildings designed by the author.
