„Special features of the supporting structure, such as the large cantilever of the three upper floors on the east side, the irregular arrangement of columns and walls, and the unequal floor plans of the three underground floors could be optimally modelled with AxisVM. The earthquake calculation was carried out using the response spectrum method.”
