In this program the wind load on the structure will be tested. For this test Eurocode 1 of the building rules of the European Union will be used. After the test, the section of the beams will be optimized.
  
 The other functional tests will be executed on the prototype of the automatic window. The first test is the building of the prototype itself. The team will rate different aspects while building the prototype. In this way the weak points of the design of the prototype will be detected. For every weak point, improvements will be formulated.  The other functional tests will be executed on the prototype of the automatic window. The first test is the building of the prototype itself.

-The reason we chose oak is because it is the most reliable and resistant outdoor wood, we want to ensure these chosen beams will stand the test of time. We stated in the environmental chapter the insulating benefits that oak provides and its acoustic advantages that can really benefit our dome. There are approximately 600 spices of oak. For choose which one type of oak we going to use, we made a research about it. With the parameters of: geographic distribution, features, use and price. Finally we choose English oak [(carvalho_roble)], "Quercus robur" or Carvalho-roble in Portuguese. The wood is very resistant to insect and fungal attack because of its high tannin content.+The reason we chose oak is because it is the most reliable and resistant outdoor wood, we want to ensure these chosen beams will stand the test of time.

 - Geographic distribution: this type of oak tree is common in Europe concretely in Iberian Peninsula and Portugal. For this reason is a good choice for get on     local suppliers. - Geographic distribution: this type of oak tree is common in Europe concretely in Iberian Peninsula and Portugal.
