Steel, Concrete and Composite Design of Tall Buildings
A handbook for structural engineers and architects providing practical information on all aspects, including wind effects, seismic design, and various lateral and gravity systems.
Includes the latest building codes, recent retrofits in light of earthquakes in Japan and California, the structural behavior of building components and assemblies, computer modeling techniques for predicting the elastic and elasto-plastic response of buildings, and general approaches and trends for the benefit of engineers new to high-rise design and construction.
Updated from the 1988 edition and augmented with new case studies, many of them Taranath's own designs. A comprehensive reference for the design and retrofitting of high rise buildings.
Up-dated information is included on Uniform Building Code Requirements, and new information on seismic design including details for steel, concrete and composite systems. Chapters on wind and lateral systems enhance with example problems and case histories.
Published/Edition: November 1997. ISBN/Book No.: 0070629145
