The best tool to use is a Multi-Activity Chart to work out key cycle times then its a process of extrapolating the cycle times to various quantities and looking at alternatives (eg, using a pump instead of a crane for lifting concrete).

I'm no expert on high rise but it would be worth speaking to the crane hirer and manufacturer.To get a good balance, I would speak to manufacturers of similiar capacity machines too.Let me know how you get on

My other question would be is there a basic formula to work out the number of lifts required per day from the tonnage of steel in each wall/base.
I seen something on another thread for tower cranes tha had an example:
Maerial Type Volume Container Capacity Hooks Programme Tasks Hour per day work day hook per day
Rebar in slab 69T Sling 1.2 58 5 12 3 4
I was wondering what the work day value was and how that relates to hook per day
