Abstract

This paper aims to diagnostic and assessment the benefits and barriers of Building Information Modelling in the construction project management. Both open and closed questionnaire was used to explore the views of a number of Iraqi engineers; in order to investigate the level of BIM implementation in Iraq construction sector. Questionnaire indicated an acceptable awareness of (BIM) in Iraq, especially among the young generation of engineers which indicates the arrival of the evolutionary stream of BIM in the next few years. Moreover, questionnaire showed that the most important advantage of implementing BIM in the Iraqi construction sector was the ability to generate accurate 2D plans at any stage, while the least important advantage was the ability to provide a careful planning of the site facilities, with a relative importance of (82 %) and (33 %) respectively. Furthermore, the most important barrier to its implementation was the unspecified responsibilities for data content, as presented by questionnaire, while the least important barrier was the lack of programs efficiency in data exchange and internal collaboration, with a relative importance of (81 %) and (34 %) respectively.

Abstract

Connections in MRFs are the most important members and seismic behaviour is affected by function of beam column connections as well as column foundation connections. If the connections are able to provide the required ductility and efficiency against the seismic excitation, the seismic capacity of the MRF performed by these connections will be affected. SMAs have recently been used as a tool to dissipate energy in structures. So far, using of them for column foundation connections has been applied much less. In this paper, SMAs have been introduced and an innovated column foundation connection equipped with SMA has been suggested. Micro and macro behaviour of the connection has been studied and it was applied in sample MRF. Seismic response of the MRF under different earthquakes by equipping the connection with steels/SMAs bars have been studied and compared. Finally, results indicated that MRF with this connection showed proper seismic performance.

Abstract

Most seismic regulations are usually associated with fixed-base structures, assuming that elimination of this phenomenon leads to conservative results and engineers are not obliged to use near-fault earthquakes. This study investigates the effect of soil–structure interaction on the inelastic response of MDOF steel structures by using well known Cone method. In order to achieve this, three dimensional multi-storey steel structures with moment and braced frame are analysed using non-linear time history method under the action of 40 near-fault records. Seismic response parameters, such as base shear, performance of structures, ductility demand and displacement demand ratios of structures subjected to different frequency-contents of near-fault records including pulse type and high-frequency components are investigated. The results elucidate that the flexibility of soil strongly affects the seismic response of steel frames. Soil–structure interaction can increase seismic demands of structures. Also, soil has approximately increasing and mitigating effects on structural responses subjected to the pulse type and high frequency components. A threshold period exists below which can highly change the ductility demand for short period structures subjected to near-fault records.

Abstract

Successful daily river flow forecasting is necessary in water resources planning and management. A reliable rainfall-runoff model can provide useful information for water resources planning and management. In this study, particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) as a metaheuristic approach is employed to train artificial neural network (ANN). The proposed PSO-ANN model is applied to simulate the rainfall runoff process in Karaj River for one and two days ahead. In this regard, different combinations of the input variables including flow and rainfall time series in previous days have been taken under consideration in order to obtain the best model's performances. To evaluate efficiency of the PSO algorithm in training ANNs, separate ANN models are developed using Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) training algorithm and the results are compared with those of the PSO-ANN models. The comparison reveals superiority of the PSO algorithm than the LM algorithm in training the ANN models. The best model for 1 and 2 days ahead runoff forecasting has R2 of 0.88 and 0.78. Results of this study shows that a reliable prediction of runoff in 1 and 2 days ahead can be achieved using PSO-ANN model. Overall, results of this study revealed that an acceptable prediction of the runoff up to two days ahead can be achieved by applying the PSO-ANN model.

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to establish the effects of vessel walls flexibility on its natural sloshing frequency considering soil-structure-fluid interaction theory. Furthermore, two new efficiently relations to find both of wall flexibility and soil-structure interaction effects on natural frequency are developed. Regarding the aim of current study three different conditions of elevated tanks are applied. Fixed base condition with an emphasis on recommendations of international code ACI-350, analytical FSSI regarding equivalent mass spring method, and the numerical direct method regarding theory of finite element are taken into consideration. Results indicate that there is no significant effect of walls flexibility on natural sloshing frequency regarding fixed base assumptions of vessels. On the contrary, significant effects of wall flexibility are achieved considering SSI theory. Results of international code ACI-350 show that, the international codes assumptions have imprecise estimations of natural sloshing frequency in the range of hard to very soft soil categories.  On the other hand, it is observed that the wall flexibility has a more highlighted effect on natural frequency in soft soils rather than soil-structure interaction. The significance of wall flexibility effect on natural frequency is more than that of SSI considering soil softening.

Abstract

Buildings are the kind of facility needed by everyone. The accuracy in determining the amount of costs required to build a building has become a challenge for all parties involved in the process. This study aims to determine the factors affecting the cost of a building. By using four independent variables, i.e. floor area, number of floors, foundation depth, and project implementation time, and one dependent variable in the form of a contract value of the building project, an analysis to determine the factors that influence the cost of a building has been made. Using 81 samples in several cities in Indonesia and multiple linear regression of stepwise method, the results show three factors that significantly affect the cost of building projects. They are floor area, number of floors, and project implementation time. This is indicated by tcount for floor area of 12.770, tcount for the number of floors of 46.05, and tcount for project implementation time of 2.321.
