As architects design new high-rise buildings taller and with more complexity, producers are challenged to deliver ready-mix concrete that can be pumped, placed and finished effectively for these ...

There is a growing interest in using coupled composite plate shear walls/ concrete-filled (CPSW/CF) for high-rise building construction, particularly to optimize the design for wind and/or seismic ...

Applying a decorative concrete treatment in a high-rise building presents a unique set of challenges. While traditionally you may use concrete pavers in an outdoor space on the ground, these areas in ...

More than half of the world’s 7.8 billion population live in cities and urban areas, and 2.5 billion more are expected to join them within the next 20-25 years. High-rise buildings, particularly ...

Recent advancements in technology have radically affected the design and construction of high-rise concrete residential towers. With the advent of new modeling software, high-performance concrete and ...

High-rise concrete structures offer excellent thermal efficiency but present a number of challenges during construction, particularly with respect to moisture intrusion. Because these structures tend ...
