Part 9: Introduction to Computer Software 9 - 9 Software Software LUCA Scope LUCA is software accompanying a design guide for industrial halls in fire conditions. This tool calculates displacements and additional horizontal forces that appear in industrial halls during fire enabling the engineers to consider their effect in the design in order to avoid collapse or risk of human life. Software was developed within RFCS project RFS2-CR- 2007-00032.
