 TOPIC :- HIGH RISE BUILDING

INTRODUCTION

A high rise building is a tall building, as opposed to a low-rise

building and is defined by its height differently in
various jurisdictions. It is used as a residential, office
building or other functions including hotel, retail or with
multiple purposes combined. A residential high-rise building is
also called tower block and may be referred to as an "MDU",
standing for "Multi Dwelling Unit". A very tall high-rise building
is referred to as a skyscraper.

High-rise buildings became possible with the invention of

the elevator (lift) and cheaper, more abundant building
materials. The materials used for the structural system of high-
rise buildings are reinforced concrete and steel. Most North
American style skyscrapers have a steel frame, while
residential blocks are usually constructed of concrete. There is
no clear difference between a tower block and a skyscraper,
although a building with fifty or more stories is generally
considered a skyscraper.

INTRODUCTION

An apartment (American English), flat (British English)

or unit (Australian English) is a self-contained housing unit (a type of
residential real estate) that occupies only part of a building, generally
on a single level. Such a building may be called an apartment
building, apartment complex, flat complex, block of flats, tower
block, high-rise or, occasionally, mansion block (in British English),
especially if it consists of many apartments for rent. In Scotland, it is
called a block of flats or, if it is a traditional sandstone building,
a tenement, a term which has a pejorative connotation in the United
States. Apartments may be owned by an owner/occupier, by
leasehold tenure or rented by tenants (two types of housing tenure).

The term apartment is favored in North America (although in some

cities flat is used for a unit which is part of a house containing two or
three units, typically one to a floor. In, the term apartment is more
usual in professional real estate and architectural circles where
otherwise the term flat is used commonly, but not exclusively, for an
apartment on a single level (hence a 'flat' apartment).
Technically multi-story apartments sometimes referred to as mid-rise
apartments and even high-rise apartments when there are many
stories. Duplex description can be different depending on the part of
the country but generally has two to four dwellings with a door for
each and usually two front doors close together but separate -
referred to as 'duplex' (or 'triplex') indicating the number of units, not
the number of floors as they are usually one story at least in the Texas
area.
