This paper investigates the constraints that limit use of public bus by people commuting to work in Putrajaya, Malaysia. Putrajaya was built replace city Kuala Lumpur as new administrative centre for government research adopted qualitative methods which involved a total 29 respondents who car and/or commute their workplaces. The findings this study show several factors, such reliability, safety, and customer service, play considerable roles promoting transportation. agree reliability (e.g....

Putrajaya is a new federal administrative capital of Malaysia which has been set to achieve 70% share all travels by public transport in the city area. However, current modal split between and private 15 : 85. In order understand travelers’ willingness use transport, conceptual model developed determine factors that affect them instead travelling their own cars. Various variables such as service quality, environmental impact, attitude, behavior intention were analyzed tested using structural...

In recent years, the topic of climate change has been increasingly noticed by public, and carbon emission reduction is one primary targets for various industries worldwide. The construction industry a profound influence in this field, so it significant to consider what kind efforts can be made building projects. Many scholars agree promote prefabrication technology construction, but its application still faces several challenges. By undertaking desk research, paper explores motivation...

Scholars widely agree that modular technologies can significantly improve environmental sustainability compared to traditional building methods. There has been considerable debate about the viability of replacing cast-in-place structures with construction projects. The primary purpose this study is determine feasibility using technology for projects in island areas. Thus, it necessary investigate potential problems and suitable solutions associated project implementation. This accomplished...

There are significant discrepancies between the experimental results and numerical analysis outcomes for steel-reinforced concrete-filled steel tubular (SRCFST) columns. This is primarily due to lack of understanding confinement mechanisms SRCFST corresponding models confined concrete. Therefore, based on square tubes reinforcements concrete, this paper calculates effective lateral confining stress determine strength enhancement factors concrete in various regions. Drawing from classical...

In recent years, there has been a wide concern regarding climate change and the future development of human beings. Some scholars support idea that construction activity exacerbating global warming issue, which requires sustainable transformation building industry. This article examines correlation between sector Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) published by United Nations. Within framework advocacy for development, is progressively advancing creation green buildings to facilitate...

The lack of streamflow data can significantly impact the flood prediction capacity various Malaysian agencies, including National Disaster Management Agency (NADMA). To address this issue, we investigated use machine learning methods to estimate missing in eleven stations Peninsular Malaysia. We compared performance three (Naive Bayes, k-Nearest Neighbors model, and Multiple Classification Regression Tree) with five conventional (coefficient correlation, Arithmetic Average Method, Inverse...

It is estimated that 3 billion tons of concrete are used globally each year. Cement a critical component concrete, and its production accounts for nearly 5-7% global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Producing one ton (OPC) releases approximately CO2. These CO2 emissions contribute to the greenhouse effect, leading warming, polar ice cap melting, sea level rise, coastal city flooding, land desertification, decreased agricultural productivity, ecosystem damage, adverse effects on human health....

To overcome the shortage of traditional temperature sensors, this paper adopts infrared thermal imaging technology for measurement. avoid spatial information loss issue during image data vectorization process, adopted relationship between pixels in principal component analysis (PCA) model training, which is called information-based PCA (SIPCA). Then, also used fault localization method to enhance location performance. Tested by an experimental tank system, proposed achieves better...

Orthonormal subspace analysis (OSA) is proposed for handling the decomposition issue and principal component selection in traditional key performance indicator (KPI)-related process monitoring methods such as partial least squares (PLS) canonical correlation (CCA). However, it not appropriate to apply static OSA algorithm a dynamic since pays no attention auto-correlation relationships variables. Therefore, novel (DOSA) capture auto-correlative behavior of variables on basis KPIs accurately....

Many studies on construction labor productivity (CLP) have been conducted by researchers worldwide over the years, but there has no study to date whereby findings from previous articles extensively reviewed a geographical perspective. Furthermore, published not unanimous their in same region further questioning reliability of research. This aims review research topic CLP identify reasons for variation A thorough literature was with all available scientific databases and total 122 were...

The utilization of construction and demolition waste is useful for sustainable infrastructure development protecting the environment. In this research, properties self-compacting concrete produced by replacing natural coarse aggregates (NCA) with inferior recycled (RCA) were investigated. (SCC) mortar (SCM) varying replacements RCA (0, 25, 50, 100%) in NCA determined. flow, strength, early shrinkage tests, microstructure using X-ray diffraction (XRD) a scanning electron microscope (SEM)...

The use of concrete is widespread, but it poses challenges due to its high consumption Earth's raw resources and difficulties in recycling reclamation. Today, the pressing climate issues, including global warming emergence a complex climate, continue test cement-based polymers civil engineering industry. As result, there growing demand for higher performance, renewable resources, reduced carbon dioxide production, leading shift traditional industrial revolution. Composite nano has emerged as...

Following introducing the Industrial Revolution 4.0 framework in 2013, many industrialised nations have implemented this new industrial paradigm. The smart factory is a fundamental concept imperative for successfully implementing Fourth Revolution. Many scholars and specialists contend that ongoing advancement of factories will transform structure. This study aims to examine status factories, exploring development management during Industry period under system thinking. work extensively...

A composite pavement known as semi rigid wearing course is made by incorporating high workability fluid grout into a porosity of porous asphalt skeleton. This particularly designed to have the consistency water with early and 28 – day strength. It critical maintain its fluidity so it can flow through air voids while simultaneously generate compressive strength minimal porosity. The aim this study investigate influence pozzolanic material towards properties grout. wide range mix trials was...
