Square-Base Double-Layer Tensegrity Structures: Geometric Relations for Modular Tensegrity Assemblies
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Tensegrity, as a typology of designing structural forms, can be applied in the construction industry. As a structural system, it can produce a number of forms. Nonetheless, the particularly complex geometric forms that can ... -
Integrated CAD and GIS–Based Framework to Support Construction Planning: Case Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The construction plan of a structure should not be developed in isolation—that is, without considering the structure’s surroundings. It is affected by or has an impact on existing facilities/utilities in the structure’s ... -
Design for Mass Customization: Rethinking Prefabricated Housing Using Axiomatic Design
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The housing market is urgently demanding customized quality buildings at affordable costs. Housing prefabrication represents a suitable strategy as long as it is combined with cost-effective personalization through mass ... -
Cost-Benefit Framework to Generate Wind Hazard Mitigation Recommendations for Homeowners
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Wind hazards are responsible for the majority of hazard losses in the United States; however, little customized information is available to provide actionable information to homeowners to support individual mitigation ... -

Cross-Laminated Timber for Single-Family Residential Construction: Comparative Cost Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Cross-laminated timber (CLT) has emerged in recent years to become a widely recognized mass timber product for large-scale wood construction projects. The advantage of large CLT buildings has been recognized by investors ... -
Energy Matrices of Building Integrated Photovoltaic Thermal Systems: Case Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)In this paper, an attempt has been made to study and analyze the integration of residential buildings with photovoltaic (PV) systems. PV panels can be integrated with buildings in various ways (façades, double skin façades, ... -
Improving the Fire Performance of LSF Wall and Floor Systems Using External Insulation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)The load-bearing light-gauge steel-framed (LSF) wall systems used in buildings are protected against fire by attaching fire-resistant gypsum plasterboard layers on both sides. They are also provided with cavity insulation ... -
Influence of Staircase and Elevator Core Location on the Seismic Capacity of an RC Frame Building
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)Reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls are used currently around elevator cores in multistory buildings. Although past studies have focused on the modeling of such core walls, there have been no detailed investigations of ...
