67 m high residential building tower consists of two slender buildings in reinforced concrete structure with exterior bearing walls. Structurally particular is the following problem: between +27.80 and +34.20 walls of the small tower which act as braces, are broken. The horizontal forces are transferred to the main tower by steel struts. The structure was studied with an entire 3D element finite model.
