3.1 Motivation of Using Virtual Environment In this study we aim to develop a simulation-based virtual environment that involves the tower crane operations. In the very first step‚ the tool simulates an example of crane lifting operation in a three-dimensional (3D) virtual environment. The environment involves the main features of the simulation such as collision detection technology‚ reality integration and crane operation functions. The main reasons of using these features are to provide a realistic
