Includes bibliographical references (p. 259-260) and index.
This handbook attempts to analyze whether the impact of high-rise buildings on their surroundings is different from that of lower constructions. The examples presented are mainly the "so-called signature architecture". This reference work comprises three major parts: 1) provides a visual reference tool for high-rise construction, 2) outlines high-rise building regulations, and 3) investigates the notion of sustainability with urban implications of towers.
