Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how construction waste intensity affects greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe), analyzing data from 345 buildings constructed between 2007 and 2025. Using material waste rates (MWR) from previous cases, it predicts climate impacts based on typical material compositions.

Early use of the reinforced concrete in the architecture of the Historicism in Austria–Hungary
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The study examines the early incorporation of reinforced concrete in the architecture of Historicism in Austria–Hungary. Spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries, the research illuminates the period's stylistic pluralism and the transformative impact of reinforced concrete.

An evaluation of mechanical properties of clay brick for masonry wall in Indonesia
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 In principle, the main construction of the non-engineered building in Indonesia is the wooden structure. It can be seen from traditional houses in Indonesia. However, In the last two centuries, the use of brick masonry as wall component has been becoming

Analysis of Air Permeability of Insulated Masonry Walls
Energies, 2020 Recently, the construction of external ventilated walls has become popular for public and office buildings. These blocks are used without internal rendering because of their good interior surface, stable dimensions and various filling of masonry joints ...

Developing a seismic retrofitting solution for wall-to-floor connections of URM buildings with wood diaphragms [PDF]
, 2014 Out-of-plane collapse of masonry walls in unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings has been identified as a major local failure mechanism affecting the global stability of a structure. Continuity between structural elements maintains proper load paths during

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...
