Software is a key part of the high-rise equation; 3D analytical models are needed to simulate the structural
behavior of the building under the action of applicable loads.
for vertical and lateral deformations. Software also plays a role with wind tunnel testing, another important
factor in high-rise buildings. High-rise specialists need excellent computational facilities; a smooth network of
connected computers allows the entire Dar team to work in unity and share their experiences.
