Abstract
Centering on worldwidly present urban areas, there have been many high-rise landmark buildings constructed in recent years. It is recognized that reinforced concrete has merit over steel frame construction in high-rise buildings, such as less sway in high winds, better human life protection in case of accidental heavy damage, better noise resistance. The use of high-strength concrete is rising, not only for pillars, in high-rise buildings. The paper points out on the need of classifying the HP-HSC for the different requested characteristic that materials have to exhibit on different structural elements of a complex structure. Among types of concrete, which binds together characteristics of High Strength Concrete (HSC) and High Performance Concrete (HPC), particular reference is made to Limestone Concrete (LSC).
