  <abstract>This book provides readers an approach to overall fire and life-life design of high-rise buildings in a way that meets all stakeholders’ objectives. It describes how China began constructing tall and super tall buildings decades ago and imparts many lessons learned through those experiences along with similar projects from all over the world. The author explains the technology and culture for tall building design in China as a context for how the world seeks to ensure fire and life safety in these remarkable structures.</abstract>
