The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings

期刊简介：The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings provides structural engineers and contractors with a detailed written presentation of innovative structural engineering and construction practices for tall and special buildings. It also presents applied research on new materials or analysis methods that can directly benefit structural engineers involved in the design of tall and special buildings. The editor's policy is to maintain a reasonable balance between papers from design engineers and from research workers so that the Journal will be useful to both groups. The problems in this field and their solutions are international in character and require a knowledge of several traditional disciplines and the Journal will reflect this.The main subject of the Journal is the structural design and construction of tall and special buildings. The basic definition of a tall building, in the context of the Journal audience, is a structure that is equal to or greater than 50 meters (165 feet) in height, or 14 stories or greater. A special building is one with unique architectural or structural characteristics.However, manuscripts dealing with chimneys, water towers, silos, cooling towers, and pools will generally not be considered for review. The journal will present papers on new innovative structural systems, materials and methods of analysis.

【译文】为高层和特殊建筑提供结构工程师和承包商关于创新结构工程和施工实践的详细书面介绍。它还介绍了关于新材料或分析方法的实际研究，这些研究可以直接受益于参与高层和特殊建筑设计工作的结构工程师。编辑政策是在设计工程师和研究工作者之间的论文之间保持合理的平衡，以便该期刊对两组都很有用。该领域的这些问题及其解决方案具有国际性质，需要了解几个传统学科，该期刊将反映这一点。该期刊的主要主题是高层和特殊建筑的结构设计和施工。在期刊受众的背景下，高层建筑的基本定义是高度等于或大于50米（165英尺）或14层及以上的结构。特殊建筑是指具有独特建筑或结构特征的建筑。然而，涉及烟囱、水塔、筒仓、冷却塔和游泳池的手稿通常不会考虑审阅。该期刊将展示关于新颖的结构系统、材料和分析方法的研究论文。
