The adoption rate of new technologies is still relatively low in the construction industry, particularly for mitigating occupational safety and health (OSH) risks, which traditionally a largely labor-intensive activity developing countries, occupying ill-afforded non-productive management resources. However, understanding why this case unresearched area countries such as Malaysia. In aiming to help redress situation, study explored major barriers involved, firstly by detailed literature...
Tuned mass damper inerter is a passive control device that proven to be effective in mitigating structural responses under earthquake excitations, however, its efficiency highly depends on design parameters. This paper aims investigate how the optimum parameters of TMDI change with frequency content far-field earthquakes minimize need for repeatedly optimizing these varying and characteristics. To achieve this objective, ratio earthquake's structure's defined as an index simultaneously...
The objective of this study was to establish a satisfaction evaluation model industrial heritage renewal by evaluating the performance old buildings after renewal, then judging adaptability and accuracy transformation strategy putting forward targeted improvement suggestions. data were collected through questionnaire survey analyzed statistical package for social science (SPSS) software using structural equation (SEM) importance–performance analysis (IPA). results show that (1) history,...
The outbreak of COVID-19 made researchers notice some new points and change their focus, such as the economies scale for residential energy use, dependency societies, etc. This paper provides a bibliometric analysis 497 articles by VOSviewer, finding that existing studies on building use during could be summarized into four keywords, i.e., occupants, coronavirus, sustainability monitoring management. Significant increases in consumption are found with increased duration in-home-activity,...
Abstract. Giving full play to the public's initiative for geohazard reduction is critical sustainable disaster under a government-led top-down governance approach. According intention participate in mitigation activities, this study introduces analytical framework of theory planned behavior (TPB), with attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control as primary explanatory variables, three added variables: risk perception, experience, participation perception. Survey data...
In this paper, a fuzzy-rule-based semi-active control of building frames using variable orifice dampers (VODs) is presented. Additionally, the consequences well-known characteristics near-fault ground motions, forward directivity and fling step, on seismic response investigated. The membership functions fuzzy rules controller were optimized by genetic algorithm. To illustrate efficiency proposed strategy in application effects numerical simulation for 10-story frame equipped with VODs are...
Abstract Determination of the early-age compressive strength concrete is essential for quality assurance, safety, and economy construction projects. Due to manual operation on site, conventional maturity meters are not efficient live monitoring strength. Higher levels automated computerised improvements have been made possible by recent developments in wireless communications, sensor technologies, data processing methods across industry. For real-time early-stage strength, current study...
SUMMARY Performance‐based design method, particularly direct displacement‐based (DDBD) has been widely used for seismic of structures. Estimation equivalent viscous damping factor to characterize the substitute structure different structural systems is a dominant parameter in this methodology. In paper, results experimental and numerical investigations performed estimating DDBD procedure two lateral resistance systems, moment frames braced frames, are presented. For these investigations,...
The building sector is the second-largest energy consumer in China. With proposal to reach a carbon peak by 2030 and achieve neutrality 2060, China attaches more importance conservation emission reduction of residential sector. To study connection between socioeconomic factors consumption (REC), this paper collects data 13 prefecture-level cities Jiangsu Province, China, from 2001 2019 explore REC impact STIRPAT model. for modeling are identified relevant studies weighted independent weight...
Construction workers often suffer from musculoskeletal disorders due to awkward postures and weight-carrying in hot environments. Previous studies have focused on posture, neglecting or the environment. This study develops an automated real-time version of RULA-based posture assessment method, identifying a worker's load weight using RGB-D Microsoft Kinect sensing camera. The method includes ambient workplace temperature is tested small-scale bricklaying reinforcement task. Laboratory tests...
Abstract In his seminal paper on the solution of infiltration equation, Philip (1969), https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-1-4831-9936-8.50010-6 proposed a gravity time, t grav , to estimate practical convergence time and domain validity infinite series expansion, TSE, for describing transient state. The parameter refers point in where is dominated equally by capillarity as derived from first two (dominant) terms TSE. Evidence suggests that applicability truncated two‐term equation has limit...
Cold-formed steel storage rack-supported buildings, also referred to as clad racks, support both the building enclosure and stored goods. Because of combined actions wind loading pallets, uprights undergo a combination biaxial bending compression. The focus attention this paper is only on pure capacity uprights. In cold-formed structures international specifications, linear interaction equation typically used account for members subject may be inaccurate. order produce safe economical design...
This paper first describes a finite element model using advanced analysis to determine the biaxial bending capacity of cold-formed steel storage rack upright sections. The is found accurately predict published experimental results with an average predicted ratio 1.02. Second, validated used run parametric studies and analyze response slender, semicompact compact unperforated cross Analyses are for local distortional buckling failure modes only. Nine configurations considered per section...
