Books on Hi-Rise Design

(OP)
I've been looking to update my library with books on hi-rise analysis and design. Does anyone have any books that they find invaluable on the subject? Thanks

RE: Books on Hi-Rise Design

One good book for tall buildings is "Steel, Concrete, & Composite Design of Tall Buildings" by Taranath.  The book has some case studies for tall buildings and goes over some of the differences between hi-rise and non hi-rise buildings.  Also, PCA has a booklet on Column Shortening in Tall Structures by Fintel, et al which is handy for tall concrete buildings.
