Abstract

The integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Digital Twin (DT) systems has reshaped construction project delivery, but their application remains concentrated in large, resource-intensive developments. Small-scale projects, which dominate the built environment in many regions, often lack access to advanced digital platforms due to financial constraints, insufficient infrastructure, and limited technical capacity. Existing Common Data Environment (CDE) frameworks are typically monolithic and costly, making them unsuitable for the flexible and affordable deployment needed in these contexts. A persistent barrier is semantic fragmentation: without interoperable data exchange across BIM, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), project information remains siloed and underutilized. This study introduces a modular, semantic-enabled CDE architecture designed specifically for small-scale projects. The framework incorporates lightweight ontologies, microservices, and knowledge graphs to deliver scalable and semantically coherent integration of BIM–IoT–GIS datasets. To validate its applicability, the research applies the model to a three-storey educational building, demonstrating how real-time DT functionality can be achieved with minimal infrastructure demands. The case study highlights improvements in data exchange, operational monitoring, and sustainability analysis, showing how the architecture supports predictive maintenance and decision-making. By synthesizing insights from literature and practical demonstration, the paper proposes a blueprint for democratizing DT adoption, enabling affordable, adaptable, and interoperable solutions for small-scale construction projects.

Abstract

High-performance concrete (HPC) is an important construction material that can be improved with nano-additives. In this study, the modification of HPC with KHA-HC nanodiamond and nano aluminum oxide (NA) admixtures was investigated; the admixture rate was applied in the range of 0-1.4% in 0.2% increments. The rheology, density, compressive and flexural strength, water absorption, and microstructure properties were investigated; the results showed that the KHA-HC nanodiamond showed higher efficiency than NA. Compared with HPC without nano-additives, the strength properties of HPC with the most optimal content of nano-additives, 0.6% KHA-HC and 1.0% NA, were improved by 47.1% and 17.0% for compressive strength and by 44.9% and 16.3% for flexural strength. Water absorption decreased by 33.0% and 26.0%, respectively. Also, with optimal dosages of nano-additives, an improvement in the rheology of the HPC mixture was recorded. The complex modification of HPC 0.6% KHA-HC and 1.0% NA provides a synergistic effect and maximum improvements in properties: the increase in compressive strength was 58.2%; flexural strength - 54.1%; decrease in water absorption - 49.1%. HPC modified by nano-additives has an improved macro- and microstructure. The two types of nano-additives’ effectiveness, KHA-HC and NA, both separately and together in HPC technology for additional improvement of their operational properties, has been proven.

Abstract

Retrofitting reinforced concrete (RC) slabs is crucial for enhancing their flexural strength, ductility, and durability, particularly in aging or seismically deficient structures. This study aims to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of three retrofitting techniques: steel plate bonding, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets, and engineered cementitious composites (ECC) with expanded steel mesh in improving the structural behavior of RC slabs. The research integrates both experimental testing and numerical analysis using ABAQUS finite element modeling to assess load–deflection behavior, failure mechanisms, and strength enhancement. The findings revealed that the use of CFRP sheets and ECC with expanded mesh significantly improved the slabs’ structural performance, increasing ultimate load capacity by up to 58% and ductility by more than 40% compared to the control specimens. Conversely, steel plate retrofitting showed inferior performance due to inadequate interfacial bonding. The numerical results exhibited strong agreement with the experimental data, with an average FEM-to-test ratio of 1.04. The study highlights the superior efficiency of CFRP and ECC techniques in strengthening RC slabs, offering enhanced deformation capacity, energy dissipation, and overall seismic resilience, which contributes to the ongoing development of sustainable and high-performance rehabilitation strategies for concrete structures.

Abstract

The article presents the results of laboratory studies on the patterns of change in the filtration coefficient of the fine-grained component (fine earth) of the soil mixture from a number of influencing factors. The study was conducted to assess the impact of the fine earth fractional composition of a soil mixture on its filtration parameters and density-moisture state. The experiments were conducted using a compression device, the use of which is regulated by the standard of the Republic of Kazakhstan. One hundred and twenty-six fine earth samples were tested, containing 50 to 75% (by weight) of various fractions with particle sizes smaller than 5 mm. An analysis of the test results revealed that for large fractions (with particle sizes of 5 mm or less, but more than 1 mm), the filtration coefficient of fine earth increases as the weight content of fractions in it increases (from 50 to 75%), while for small fractions (with particle sizes of 1 mm or less), it decreases. It was determined that similar patterns are characteristic of the increase in moisture content and increase in the density of fine earth, which occur when water is filtered through it. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that, based on the identified patterns, correlation dependencies were established between the filtration coefficient and the weight content of various fractions, as well as the increase in moisture content and the increase in the density of fine earth. Correlation dependencies of the filtration coefficient on the weight content of various fractions, as well as on the increase in moisture content and increase in the density of fine earth, were established. Based on the established relationships, formulas were developed for predicting the filtration coefficient, moisture content, and density of fine earth, which adds practical value to the research. These formulas are recommended for use in selecting optimal fine earth compositions for soil mixtures used in dam construction.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of polypropylene (PP) fiber content and initial curing temperature on shrinkages, mechanical properties, and microstructural characteristics of porcelain-based geopolymers. Geopolymer mixes were prepared with PP fiber dosages of 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% by weight and initially cured at 60 °C, 75 °C, 90 °C, and 105 °C. Autogenous and drying shrinkage were monitored at 24 h, 72 h and 3, 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, 90, and 120 days, while compressive and splitting tensile strengths were tested at 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. The results demonstrated that the incorporation of PP fiber not only shortened the setting time but also significantly reduced both autogenous and drying shrinkage of the geopolymer mortar. The most favorable performance was observed in specimens containing 2.0% PP fiber cured at 105 °C, which exhibited the lowest shrinkage values. Autogenous shrinkage was 439 μɛ at 24 h and 392 μɛ at 120 days, while drying shrinkage was 544 μɛ at 24 h and 194 μɛ at 120 days. Increasing fiber content decreased porosity, producing a more compact, homogeneous matrix and improving mechanical performance of concrete specimens, particularly splitting tensile strength; the optimal dosage was 2%, yielding 28‑day compressive strength of 41.03 N/mm² and splitting tensile strength of 7.65 N/mm².

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the thermal conditions related to the variations in the school courtyard’s orientation, focusing on mass temperature (Tm), outdoor air temperature, and Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET). A qualitative methodology based on ENVI-met software was adopted. Simulations for the existing school building were performed in the four basic orientations on 21 March and 21 September to assess the thermal impact of the courtyard’s orientations. Results showed that orientation produced slight but meaningful differences in Tm, with variations of 0.16°C in September and 0.20°C in March. Though modest, these differences become significant when scaled to the large mass of the school buildings, where even small reductions affect energy demand and comfort. For outdoor air temperature, the south orientation achieved reductions of 0.53–1.13°C in September and 1.1–1.9°C in March compared to ambient conditions. PET and wind maps supported these findings, with the south orientation allowing better airflow and better thermal comfort. Furthermore, analysis of CO₂ concentration confirmed that the south-facing courtyard provided the healthiest air quality. The study highlights that courtyard orientation should not be overlooked in large educational buildings, as even slight orientation-driven improvements become critical, reinforcing the importance of integrating orientation into holistic passive design strategies.

Abstract

Disconnecting pile heads from the raft has gained wide application because the gravel and geogrid layers filling the space between them create a more even pressure distribution and reduce differential settlement. However, due to the complexity of modelling the multiple interfaces in the superstructure-foundation-subsoil system, previous findings on load-transfer mechanisms, interaction effects, and group optimization remain incomplete. Moreover, the common analytical approach employed for understanding the load transfer mechanism is the “unit cell’ concept, which cannot fully capture dissimilarity in the group. To address these limitations, this study aims to develop an analytical framework for predicting the load-settlement response of cushioned piled rafts with dissimilar piles. The proposed method simplifies the cushion-pile-soil interaction using a Winkler-type Spring model, while a hyperbolic load-transfer function captures the nonlinear pile-soil behavior. The model was verified against existing experimental and showed close agreement. It successfully captured the load-sharing mechanism, confirming that stiffer, longer, or larger-diameter piles attract a disproportionately higher share of the load. The novelty of this work lies in the establishment of an analytical model based on the principles of dissimilar pile groups but extended to include cushion force transmission, a critical integration that provides a realistic tool for practice.

Abstract

Delays, cost overruns, and disputes have traditionally plagued the construction industry. These issues arise from poor management and the complexities of construction projects. Given this situation, this research sought to identify and quantitatively prioritize the factors leading to claims/disputes, risks, and the construction activity productivity. At the same time, it aimed to measure the extent to which the BIM approach mitigates such factors. A mixed methodological approach was utilized, which included a structured questionnaire survey and two case studies. For quantitative data analysis, advanced techniques and tools of IBM SPSS and AMOS were used, which included mean analysis, Standard Deviation (SD), Relative Importance Index (RII), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings confirmed the hypothesis of this research, showing BIM implementation directly and substantially improves productivity, as evidenced by the 28% reductions in disputes, 31% in communication efficiency, and 24% in overall productivity. Moreover, SEM results confirmed the existence of positive causal relationships regarding BIM adoption and cost control, schedule compliance, and safe work performance. This study conclusively demonstrates that BIM is a dynamic management approach to enhancing stakeholder coordination, minimizing disputes, and ultimately ensuring project viability.
