There are two categories of high rise buildings that will be discussed in this chapter. There are your regular high rise buildings, and then there are your super high rise buildings. From a fire protection standpoint, the regular high rise buildings are the ones where the fire department is not going to be able to fight the fire from the ground.

Behavior of 222Rn and Its Progeny in High-Rise Buildings
Health Physics, 1998Unlike detached or semi-detached houses, the main source of indoor radon in high-rise buildings is the building material. Radon released from the building material will be removed by ventilation, either forced or natural, so that its concentration, its progeny's concentration, and the equilibrium between the two will be different for different types of

Historical reinforced concrete high-rise buildings
2014Reinforced concrete structures built without reference to a seismic design code in areas that have subsequently been included in a seismic zone may significantly increase the seismic risk of a country. At present, in Italy approximately 60 percent of the building stock, of which reinforced concrete buildings are a large fraction, belongs to sites not ...
