This second edition of Tall has been updated with new information about the construction of high-rise architecture. A lot has happened in the world since 2019 the updates respond to these changes.

There has been a strong uptake in the purchase of electric cars and hybrid vehicles, so the book has been strengthened with discussion of car park planning. Site safety, site planning, project planning and health and safety have all been revised, and the latest on base isolation methods and fluid dampers for seismic control have been included. There has been a substantial increase in interest in engineered timber as a construction material, as well as an uptake in hybrid buildings joining concrete cores and timber flooring, so more is included on this.

The chapter on designing for deconstruction has had a major revision, with the inclusion of extensive details about a new demountable construction system, which tackles the construction waste problem with innovation and success. While the final chapter on façade detailing has had a major rewrite, aiming to assist young architects' understanding of façade planning and incorporating advances in façade design over the last decade, including solar shading.

In addition to the existing illustrations, there are 34 new illustrations in clear black and white, to support the revised material. Overall, this new edition continues to provide a practical guide and desk-reference to any architect or architecture student embarking on a tall building project.

Arvustused

Praise for previous editions:

"Marriage mentions having written this book with graduates of architecture in mind. However, anyone who might be involved in the design and construction of tall buildings in the course of their careers will do well to consult it. The book equips its readers with the tooling necessary to, first, ask the right questions and, then, distinguish those who have the answers from those who dont. Regardless of where an architect or engineer is in his or her career, this is an essential guide to building tall and, most importantly, to doing so successfully."

Maria Mingallon, excerpt from Architecture New Zealand, May 2020 (Issue 3)

"Skyscraper design has emerged as one of the most important and most complex tasks facing builders today. Tall: The Design and Construction of High-rise Architecture explains how skyscrapers are conceived, designed, and built in remarkably clear prose, breaking down their economic and technical requirements into lucid chapters. Along the way, Guy Marriage presents a readily accessible guide to building structures, materials, economics, and finishes, covering the whole life of a tall building from its conception to its disassembly. Tall: The Design and Construction of High-rise Architecture is an important addition for students and practitioners in a range of fields, from engineering and architecture to finance and facilities management, and makes for an essential companion for anyone navigating the tightly integrated systems and spaces of a skyscraper in design or construction."
