Abstract: Concern about whether the tiling materials primarily developed in temperate countries would be durable enough under Singapore's tropical climate was raised after a series of falling-tile incidences. The Singapore building ...

Abstract: The analytical solution is obtained for a semi-infinite linear elastic solid with a sinusoidal, “wavy” surface profile subject to applied strain. The amplitude A of a deformed wavy surface is ...

Abstract: To quantify the impact of tiling workmanship on the performance of tiled facades, the Singapore building authority launched a research project to review and investigate the entire process of external wall tiling. As part ...
