In recent years Asian Nations showed concern over the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of their civil infrastructure. This study presents a contextual investigation residential apartment complex in territory southern part India. The LCA is performed through Building Information Modelling (BIM) software embedded with Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) materials utilized construction, transportation and operational energy use throughout building lifecycle. results illustrate that cement...

Buildings are accountable for waste generation, utilization of natural resources, and ecological contamination. The construction sector is one the biggest consumers resources available naturally responsible significant CO2 emissions on planet. effects buildings environment commonly determined using Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). investigation comparison Ecological Footprint (LCEF) Energy (LCE) five residential situated in composite climatic zone India presented this study. (building...

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared in May 2021 that SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted not only by close contact with infectious respiratory fluids from infected people or contaminated materials but also indirectly through air. Airborne transmission has serious implications for the control measures we can deploy, given emergence of more transmissible variants. This emphasizes need to deploy a mechanism reduce viral load air, especially closed and crowded places such as hospitals, public...

Concrete in structures is likely to be exposed high temperatures during fire. The probability of its exposure elevated due natural hazards, accidents and sabotages. Therefore, the performance concrete after temperature a subject great importance interest designer. Popular normal strength grades produced by Ready Mix (RMC) India, Mangalore have been used production test specimens (150 mm cubes), cured tested destructive method for gathering data on characteristics. Later, these samples were...

The building sector is figuring out how to lower its embodied CO2 in a sustainable way. technology, known as Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS), offers possible remedy for this issue. Accelerated carbonation one method of sequestering concrete. In study, an M25 grade concrete made using Ordinary Portland Cement with 0–30% replacements Class F fly ash. specimens were exposed accelerated curing 6 h, 24 72 then the tested their compressive strength, depth, pH. uptake was measured...

<title>Abstract</title> This paper investigates urban microclimate dynamics through a comprehensive analysis integrating statistical methods. Statistical analyses, including the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test and Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test, assess consistency of observed data distributions stationarity key variables using 40 CPCB monitoring stations in Delhi. Additionally, yearly trend analyses employing Sequential Mann-Kendall (SQMK) unveil notable fluctuations atmospheric parameters,...

Non-autoclaved aerated concrete (NAAC) is a viable option for roof insulation as it an environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, and sustainable building material. The present study investigates the thermo-mechanical properties of NAAC insulation. For NAAC, this aims to identify optimized mix proportions achieve desired aerating effect strength by using aluminum powder, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), sodium sulfate, replacing sand with waste materials such class-F fly ash in...

All structures are likely to be subjected elevated temperatures during an event of fire. Due accidental thermal loads the may cracking and that affect both mechanical or structural properties. Even though total collapse structure is rare, a part it suffer partial damage. Thus need thoroughly assessed in order know extent damage has occurred. Assessment process determines depth damage, loss strength concrete steel reinforcement, distress from movement. Several nondestructive, partially...
