Features: This book serves as a teaching reference for high-rise structure design in civil engineering programs at universities and colleges. It covers topics such as an introduction to high-rise design, loads, shear wall structures, frame-shear wall structures, and foundation design. The book is based on the Technical Specification for Concrete Structures of Tall Buildings (JGJ-2002) and the Code for Design of Concrete Structures (GB50010-2002), and is divided into three main parts: a question bank, solutions, and proficiency test questions. The question bank includes conceptual and calculation questions, with conceptual questions further categorized into fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer types. The questions are graded into three difficulty levels—easy, medium, and hard—to assess different knowledge structures and levels. Some questions in the question bank not only help readers gauge their understanding of basic concepts, theories, and calculation methods but also evaluate their problem-solving and analytical skills, as well as their grasp of cutting-edge knowledge in the field. All questions come with detailed solutions and answers, making the book suitable for self-study. Additionally, the book includes proficiency test questions. It covers the fundamental content of high-rise structure design and can be used as a supplementary textbook for civil engineering, architectural engineering, and other related disciplines at universities and colleges. It is particularly suitable for those preparing for postgraduate entrance exams and first/second-level registered structural engineering exams. The book is also available for adult education, correspondence education, online education, and self-study students, as well as professional technicians seeking learning resources.
