Because the subject for historic building interiors is so diverse, this annotated bibliography is not comprehensive, but selective in nature, and thus, may not list all of the references published on a specific topic. Includes those publications that are generally available in print or readily accessible in libraries. Covers: general and historical studies; conservation and maintenance; paint; plaster; metals; textiles; wallcoverings; floors and floor coverings; and wood. Also, includes systems and fixtures; rehabilitation case studies; inspection, evaluation and planning; and safety, fire protection, building codes and accessibility.

Fire Safety Design for Tall Buildings provides structural engineers, architects, and students systematic introductions to fire safety design for tall buildings based on current analysis methods, design guidelines, and codes. It covers almost all aspects of fire safety design that an engineer or an architect might encounter—such as performance-based design, the basic principles of fire development and heat transfer This book also sets out an effective way of preventing the progressive collapse of a building in fire, and it demonstrates 3D modeling techniques to perform structural fire analysis with examples that replicate real fire incidents such as Twin Towers and WTC7. This helps readers to understand the design of structures and analyze their behavior in fire.
