This paper reviews the evolution of tall building’s structural systems and the technological driving force behind tall building developments. For the primary structural systems, a new classification – interior structures and exterior structures – is presented. While most representative structural systems for tall buildings are discussed, the emphasis in this review paper is on current trends such as outrigger systems and diagrid structures. Auxiliary damping systems controlling building motion are also discussed. Further, contemporary “out-of-the-box” architectural design trends, such as aerodynamic and twisted forms, which directly or indirectly affect the structural performance of tall buildings, are reviewed. Finally, the future of structural developments in tall buildings is envisioned briefly.

It will cover definitions and types of bets and wagers; the sporting codes and racing industries involved; the prevalence and recent growth of sports betting, including the effect of online technologies; and sports wagering providers, including corporate operators, traditional bookmakers, totalisators and betting exchanges. It will also discuss how sports betting and wagering is excluded from the Commonwealth Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA) with the exception of 'in-play' betting online. The chapter will conclude with a summary of state and territory regulation of gambling services. Introduction 10.2 Sports betting, where individuals bet on the outcome of a sporting event or individual events within the context of a match, has become increasingly popular.1 The fast growth in sports betting activity in recent years, combined with the pervasive advertising of sports betting products and services during sporting broadcasts, has resulted in what some describe as the 'gamblification' of sports.2 It has also raised particular concerns this will contribute to problem gambling.3 Definitions 10.3 Sports betting can be defined as: ...the wagering on approved types of local, national or international sporting activities (other than the established forms of horse and greyhound racing), whether on or off-course, in person, by telephone, or via the internet'.4 1 The betting options available to online sports betting customers are numerous.

REF 020117 Forewords Foreword from the World Economic Forum In a world confronted with resource shortage, climate change and rapid demographic shifts in emerging and developed countries alike, it is more critical than ever to think about how the built environment can provide a lifestyle that is affordable, sustainable, healthy, peaceful and happy, for as many people as possible. Considering the accelerating urbanization and expansion in the Global South versus the shrinking middle classes in the Global North, and the fact that up to 80% of our ageing building stock will likely still exist in 2030, we need to be aware that the future of the Engineering and Construction sector is not solely about industry-specific issues but also, directly and indirectly, about the future of our built environment, of our communities and, ultimately, of the well-being and happiness of our societies.
