Burj Khalifa in Dubai is a building with a height of 2,700 feet. The building has a nucleus at the center and sustains all parts of the building.
The building takes into account the effects of primary and secondary effects. The primary effects such as weight or weight materials and wind, while secondary effects include changes in temperature, humidity, and deformation under load.
