The height of a structure is relative and cannot be precisely defined using universal measures such as height or number of stories. However, from a structural engineering perspective, a tall structure can be characterized as one where its height subjects it to significant lateral forces from wind or earthquake, or both, influencing its structural design. For instance, a tall structure is defined by its greater emphasis on resisting lateral loads during the design phase compared to gravity loads.
