摘要
High-rise residential and commercial development in developing countries like Nigeria has been spurred by both the rapid growth of the population and the pressing need to protect the country's limited land supply in areas of commercial development. However, recent years have seen an increase in the number of building collapses in Nigeria, which is a cause for concern. This study uses statistical method on historical data to highlight the scenarios of the collapse of high-rise buildings in Nigeria and drawing a relationship with it to sustainable construction. According to this study, Nigerian high rises have a low rate of collapse despite the country's high rate of collapse, but the number of fatalities in the collapse of these structures is alarming. The high death toll associated with these collapses is a negative indicator for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (SDGs).
