Inthecontextoflowtointermediateseismichazardregion,thisMasterprojectevaluate,thanks to a case study, the potential of friction dampers as retrofit solution of existing Concentrically Braced Frames (CBF). Simple to design and economic to build, they are comm ...
The fundamental goal of modern high-performance buildings is to achieve low environmental carbon footprint while securing indoor conditions that promote human health and well-being. Current procedures for indoor environmental quality (IEQ) assessment are o ...
Existing steel frame buildings in Switzerland that have been designed from the early 1970s typically utilized a steel lateral load resisting system with practically no seis- mic design requirements. However, Switzerland is a moderate seismicity zone and th ...
Nowadays, reinforced concrete (RC) is one of the most widely spread construction materials: allowing to build robust and durable structures. Traditionally, due to cover requirements of the reinforcement and to casting and vibration needs, it has yet been a ...
This paper introduces a database of 34 field-measured building occupant behavior datasets collected from 15 countries and 39 institutions across 10 climatic zones covering various building types in both commercial and residential sectors. This is a compreh ...
This paper provides the findings of a research project aiming to understand the current level of industrial awareness, challenges and lessons learned during the application of the BIM (Building Information Modelling) across the construction value chain. A ...
Simultaneous consideration of active devices – especially mechanical heating and ventilation – and passive devices – including insulation and waterproofing of building envelopes – was one of the most notable aspects of studies of the management of physiolo ...
Structural damage usually happens during earthquake events. This had caused damage of properties and even worse, loss of lives. Usually, the greatest losses were not caused by the quake specifically, but rather because of the fall of the structures. The vu ...
In 2008, the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE TM46 UC) presented an annual-fixed thermal energy benchmark of 240 kWh/m(2)/yr for university campus (UC) buildings as an attempt to reduce energy consumption in public buildings. How ...
In order to evaluate the seismic vulnerability at large scale, it is necessary to gain awareness of the soil properties, types of materials used in the construction of buildings during different periods, the construction standards of each period, different ...
