Flexural behavior of precast prestressed slabs with embedded building service systems
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Dry‐assembled precast concrete construction is rapidly spreading in many parts of the world due to the several advantages offered by industrialized construction. In order to speed up not only the assemblage of the structure, but also the full integrated building process, engineering systems (mechanical–electrical–plumbing) may be prefabricated

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract On February 6, 2023, southeastern Türkiye was struck by two catastrophic earthquakes (Mw: 7.7 and Mw: 7.6) along the East Anatolian Fault Zone, causing extensive structural failures and significant loss of life. This study evaluates the seismotectonic characteristics of the sequence, analyzes strong ground motion data against the Turkish ...

Quantifying the embodied‐carbon premium of RC transfer beams via automated design
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Transfer structures in reinforced concrete (RC) buildings enable architectural flexibility but often increase material use and embodied carbon. This study introduces an automated framework to quantify the embodied‐carbon premium associated with such systems. For each parametric configuration, two equivalent RC frames—one regular and one with a

Performing Integrity: Managing Misalignment while Researching Transgressive Social Worlds
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.The qualitative literature criticizing REBs suggests that researchers should develop an approach to research ethics that does justice to their daily practice of fieldwork. In this article, I contribute to this exploration by presenting three cases of negotiating research ethics while researching transgressive social worlds.
