Abstract

High-rise building is one type of architecture which is strongly dependent on structural technology, materials technology and equipment technology. Its emergence promoted technical innovation with ceaseless breakthrough. Contemporary high-rise buildings pursue ecological design through the use of new technologies, new materials and advanced scientific means such as structure, equipment, materials and construction methods.
