Summary

A comprehensive guide for engineers, covering fundamental design concepts, gravity systems, and various lateral load-resisting systems such as shear walls and framed tubes. Detailed chapters examine the impact of wind and seismic loads on high-rise structures, including specific building code requirements from the IBC and ASCE 7-05. The source also includes case studies of iconic skyscrapers like the Burj Dubai and Petronas Towers to illustrate real-world applications of complex engineering theories. Additionally, it addresses specialized topics such as seismic rehabilitation, performance-based design, and the use of damping devices to mitigate building motion.
