Comparative Study of Manufactured Housing Production Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper illustrates the production process of a manufactured housing factory and potential bottlenecks that could affect the system efficiency. To investigate ways for improving the performance of the U-shaped flow ... -
Seismic Vulnerability of Post-Islamic Monumental Structures in Iran: Review of Historical Sources
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper reports on a study undertaken to investigate the earthquake performance and assess the seismic vulnerability of post-Islamic monumental structures in Iran. These structures are primarily of brick masonry ... -

Point-Cloud-Based Comparison between Construction Schedule and As-Built Progress: Long-Range Three-Dimensional Laser Scanner’s Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This research compares the work process at a construction site with the original construction schedule using point-cloud records that were retrieved using a long-range 3D laser scanner. The comparison was used to quantify ... -
Study of the Effect of Near-Source Vertical Ground Motion on Seismic Design of Precast Concrete Cladding Panels
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper is an attempt to determine the effect of vertical ground motion on design of precast concrete cladding panels in seismic regions, particularly in near-source areas. A spandrel-type precast concrete cladding panel ... -
Serviceability of Materials in the Tropics
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)With increasing complexity in the building construction trend and the advancement of building material technology, more building materials and substitutes have evolved and been adopted for use to function together in a ... -
Discussion of “Development of Boundary Structures for Complex-Shaped Buildings” by Yong Gib Yun and Daniel L. Schodek
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004) -
Cost of Risk Transfer: Pricing Agreements in Residential Supply Chains
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)Theoretical and computational studies of supply chains are confined mainly to buyer-supplier dyads. Evaluation of more tiers in the construction sector specifically is also rare, perhaps in part because short-term partnerships ... -
Experimental Evaluation of Thermal Response and Condensation Performance of Metal Curtain Walls Subjected to Air Leakage
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)The condensation resistance of fenestration products is typically determined in standard tests with air leakage eliminated by sealing the cracks and balancing the pressure difference across the test specimen. In reality, ... -
Collapse of Masonry Buttresses
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper investigates the collapse of masonry buttresses under concentrated lateral loads. A fracture forms at the collapse state, significantly decreasing the resistance to overturning. Conventional analysis assumes ... -
Building Maintainability—Review of State of the Art
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper reviews the issue related to maintainability of building and discusses works of researchers worldwide. The paper offers two approaches that could be integrated with the concepts of maintainability to augment ... -
Impact of Quality Control Practices in Sandcrete Blocks Production
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)Sandcrete blocks are widely used in Ghana as walling units. The quality of blocks produced, however, differs from each manufacturer due to the different methods employed in the production and the properties of the constituent ... -
Design of School Building HVAC Retrofit with Hybrid Geothermal Heat-Pump System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2004)This paper describes a proposed energy-efficient retrofit of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system for a school building in southeastern Wyoming. The existing system consists of six conventional constant air ... -
