For the megacities of the world- Tall Building Checklist! August 3, 2000
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
for investors, managers, and inspectors of tall buildings, this is an exceptionally useful book. Mr. Graighead combines his Australian roots and his California experience in a clear guide to fire safety and security management of these vertical villages. I have quoted from this work in forums around the world, and have made this book a special present for colleagues in the fire service and architecture and authorities having jurisdiction. It is a how- to and why guide to active systems. I recommend it highly. And, given that so many skyscrapers are now being built in Asia and in Latin America, I hope this is translated into Chinese, Korean, Spanish and Portuguese. - Richard A. Nick Candee, Executive Director, Global Operations, NFPA International
