Abstract

This study aims to explore the application of Lean Construction methods in controlling costs and time in high-rise building projects located in urban areas. Lean Construction, which focuses on reducing waste, improving workflows, and enhancing coordination, has proven to be effective in increasing project efficiency. Case studies were conducted on several high-rise projects that implemented Lean principles such as the Last Planner System (LPS), value stream mapping, and daily huddles to identify and address issues related to cost and time. The findings show that the application of Lean Construction resulted in a reduction of project costs by up to 20% and a decrease in project completion time by up to 15%. However, challenges such as resistance to change, lack of training, and the adaptation of Lean methods to the specific challenges of urban environments were identified as barriers that need to be addressed. In conclusion, Lean Construction methods offer an effective approach for managing costs and time in high-rise projects in urban areas, with success dependent on the extent to which Lean principles are comprehensively implemented.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of rice husk ash (RHA) and lime for stabilizing clayey soil, with the aim of improving its properties for road construction applications. The experimental tests, including Atterberg limits, compaction, unconfined compressive strength (UCS), cyclic wetting-drying, and California Bearing Ratio (CBR), were performed on untreated and stabilized soil samples. The results showed that the addition of RHA and lime significantly reduced the plasticity, improved the compaction characteristics, increased the strength, and enhanced the durability of the clayey soil. The optimal mixture, consisting of 10% lime and 10% rice husk ash, exhibited the highest improvement in soil properties, making it suitable for road subgrade and foundation materials. The study highlights the potential of utilizing agricultural waste, such as rice husk ash, in soil stabilization, offering a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable solution for road construction.

Abstract

Microcatchment rainwater harvesting systems offer a promising solution for improving water availability in semi-arid regions, where rainfall is both scarce and irregular. This study investigates the impact of different microcatchment designs on the efficiency of rainwater harvesting in semi-arid environments. The research focused on comparing various microcatchment configurations, including differences in catchment area size, shape, soil type, and the presence of drainage and diversion features. Data collected during the rainy season revealed that larger and concave-shaped microcatchments were significantly more efficient in capturing rainwater compared to smaller or convex designs. Additionally, soil type played a crucial role in determining the infiltration rates and water retention capacity of the systems. The study also assessed evaporation losses and suggested that evaporation control measures, such as shaded or covered storage, could further improve efficiency. Hydrological modeling predicted that optimized microcatchments could increase water collection by 30-40% compared to traditional systems. The findings emphasize the importance of tailoring microcatchment designs to local environmental and economic conditions to enhance both water conservation and agricultural productivity in semi-arid regions.

Abstract

This study investigates the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures with basalt fiber reinforcement (BFRC) using nonlinear pushover analysis. The main objective is to evaluate the effect of basalt fiber reinforcement on the seismic response of RC structures located in earthquake-prone regions. The analysis focuses on key seismic parameters, including base shear, displacement, energy dissipation, and crack propagation. The results show that BFRC structures exhibit significantly enhanced seismic performance compared to conventional RC structures. The BFRC structures demonstrated higher base shear capacity, greater displacement capacity, improved energy dissipation, and better crack resistance. These improvements suggest that basalt fiber reinforcement can effectively enhance the ductility and strength of concrete structures, making them more resilient to seismic forces. The study highlights the potential of BFRC as a sustainable and efficient material for improving the seismic resilience of buildings in high seismic zones.

Abstract

This study explores the use of real-time data from Google Maps and machine learning algorithms to predict traffic congestion in medium-sized urban areas. By applying various machine learning models, including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Neural Networks, and Random Forests, this research aims to evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of congestion predictions based on data such as weather conditions, time of day, road type, and special events like accidents or public gatherings. The results indicate that the LSTM model provides the most accurate predictions, with an accuracy rate of 89.4%. The study also identifies key factors influencing congestion, such as time of day, weather conditions, and local events. These findings can be used to improve traffic management in medium-sized cities by employing data-driven prediction systems to reduce congestion and enhance traffic efficiency.

Abstract

The maintenance of wooden structures in traditional houses located in humid environments poses significant challenges due to the high risk of damage caused by moisture, fungal growth, and termite infestation. This study employs a qualitative approach to explore community maintenance practices, the challenges encountered, and the role of local wisdom in sustaining wooden traditional houses. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation at several traditional house sites in humid climate regions. The findings reveal that traditional maintenance methods, such as the use of natural preservatives, replacement of damaged components, and ventilation management, are effective in extending the lifespan of wooden structures. However, limited knowledge and resources remain major obstacles to preservation efforts. The integration of traditional techniques with modern technologies is expected to enhance maintenance effectiveness. This research provides strategic recommendations for the sustainable preservation of traditional houses and serves as a reference for the development of cultural heritage conservation policies in humid regions.
