Yeah use a skeleton fit to building and move the skeleton so that its conjoined building part moves up, make sure taht the building and the skeleton are below the grid (so they are in minus). I think this is right

Don't need a skeleton to do building animations.

Well you just put your building below the grid in Gmax, click the Animate button and frame by frame you have each part of the model rise until the entire model is assembled. Then you export.

Don't need a skeleton, don't need to mention each part of the building in code, just do as Matias says.
