Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
This chapter introduces the classical methods as well as the modern computational
approach for tall building analysis. The structural behaviour of basic structural elements as well
as sub-systems and joints are discussed in detail. The second-order effect with respect to large
deformation which is important for steel structures is also discussed in this chapter. The
materials in this chapter can greatly enhance the application of computer programs for the
analysis of complicated tall buildings.
