1. Modelling and simulation of factors influencing on-site construction of concrete frameworks : Studying the effects of resource allocation, weather conditions, and climate-improved concrete
Abstract : Concrete is the most common material used to build the structural framework in multistory buildings. However, the construction works carried out on the building site are affected by many different factors that may reduce productivity. READ MORE

2. Road Design for Future Maintenance : Life-cycle Cost Analyses for Road Barriers
Abstract : The cost of a road construction over its service life is a function of design, quality of construction as well as maintenance strategies and operations. An optimal life-cycle cost for a road requires evaluations of the above mentioned components. READ MORE

4. Energy efficient and economic renovation of residential buildings with low-temperature heating and air heat recovery
Abstract : With the building sector accounting for around 40% of the total energy consumption in the EU, energy efficiency in buildings is and continues to be an important issue. Great progress has been made in reducing the energy consumption in new buildings, but the large stock of existing buildings with poor energy performance is probably an even more crucial area of focus.

5. Mould on building materials - A calorimetric study of fungal activity as a function of environmental factors
Abstract : Mould problems in buildings have become a growing concern during the past decades. The growth of mould fungi indoors deteriorates air quality, influences human health and causes economical losses. Preventing mould growth from occurring is a more cost effective option than cleaning and renovation of buildings with mould problems. READ MORE
