Structural Correctness of Planning Processes in Building Engineering

2004
The planning of projects in building engineering is a complex process which is characterized by a dynamical composition and many modifications during the definition and execution time of processes. For a computer-aided and network-based cooperation a formal description of the planning process is necessary.

Reflection on earthquake damage of buildings in 2015 Nepal earthquake and seismic measures for post-earthquake reconstruction

, 2021
On April 25, 2015, a M8.1 earthquake happened near Pokhara, Nepal, and aftershocks occurred continuously which caused significant losses. In November 2015, the authors made an in-depth investigation on the earthquake damages of various engineering ...

Structural Fire Engineering of Building Assemblies and Frames

2016
Use of the temperature-dependent thermophysical material properties, shape geometry, and fundamental heat transfer and structural principles, in combination with available fire test data, can enable several distinct levels of engineering/calculation methods of fire resistance. The simpler computational methods, such as those in ASCE/SFPE 29-05 [1], are

Relevance of Structural Engineers to Sustainable Design of Buildings

Structural Engineering International, 2004
Examination of building life cycle environmental impacts shows that the structural system can be a major contributor to overall environmental impacts. Although the structural impacts for most buildings in the United States and Canada are relatively small compared to the operational energy use impacts, in areas where electricity sources are ...

Structural uses of stainless steel — buildings and civil engineering

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2008
a b s t r a c t Stainless steels have not traditionally been widely used as structural materials in building and civil engineering. Where the steels have been used for this purpose there has been some other imperative driving the design, usually corrosion resistance or architectural requirements rather than the inherent structural properties of the ...

PRINCIPLES OF BUILDING THE STRUCTURES OF CONCURRENT ENGINEERING

2002
Concurrent Engineering is a modern engineering strategy aimed at a simulation achievement of a combination of advantages such as time resources, means of production and innovation sufficiency of high- tech machines, equipment and technologies. When applying this strategy lots of specialized methods are used.
