Summary
Summary
The past many years have witnessed a dramatic increase in urbanization associated with increased population. This increase in the urban population has been accompanied by an equally strong growth in the number of high-rise buildings, residential houses, schools, bridges, water supply pipes, and other infrastructure constructions. This book specifies the role of engineers, architects and contractors and professional organizations in facing this challenge of making high-rise buildings safe in the event of an earthquake.
