This paper, based on the theory of sustainable development, discusses the fact that construction industry management must be conducted under the guidance of sustainable theory in the current situation of socio-economic development. Construction industry should change management concept in the aspects of project management, technology innovation management, construction materials management, project...
Due to wildly application in civil engineering and industry building, the safety requirement of outer wall external thermal insulating system is obliged. Based on the present standard of tapestry brick of construction engineering in China, the adhesive strength tests for the outer wall have been carried out. Due to the tests of one EPS external thermal insulating system, we introduce a new elastic...
Due to their reconfigurability and their high density of resources, SRAM-based FPGAs are more and more used in embedded systems. For some applications (Pay-TV,Banking, Telecommunication ...), a high level of security is needed. FPGAs are intrinsically sensitive to ionizing effects, such as light stimulation, and attackers can try to exploit faults injected in the downloaded configuration. Previous...
The construction industry has been facing a paradigm shift to (i) increase; productivity, efficiency, infrastructure value, quality and sustainability, (ii) reduce; lifecycle costs, lead times and duplications, via effective collaboration and communication of stakeholders in construction projects. Digital construction is a political initiative to address low productivity in the sector. This seeks...
This paper discusses the manner in which cinema buildings of the 20th century represent both an important physical record of society, and a challenge in terms of representing a complex range of historical, cultural, economic and physical data sets.The paper provides an overview of visualisation techniques which are appropriate to the subject, and provides a case study taken from the city of Aberdeen...
This paper presents a structural health monitoring system for monitoring, with reduced visual impact, one historical building structure. The system is based on fiber Bragg gratings and comprises 19 displacement sensors and 5 temperature sensors. All the sensors were custom made according to the monitoring points' characteristics. The results obtained over the first year of monitoring are presented...
