Applying Project-Based Learning (PBL) for Teaching Virtual Design Construction (VDC)
(International Association of Online Engineering, 2023)
Acceso abierto
Learning-centered models, which rely on active methodologies such as Project-Based Learning (PBL), should be adopted in undergraduate programs to potentiate the development of collaboration skills within future industry ...
Experimental Research on the Influence of Polypropylene Macrofiber Thickness in Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Mechanical Strengths
(Springer, 2023)
Acceso restringido
Herein, the effects of polypropylene fiber thickness on the compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength or modulus of rupture of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete (PPFRC) were investigated. ...
VDC framework proposal for curtain wall construction process optimization
(CRC Press, 2023)
Acceso restringido
A building is made up of structural and non-structural elements. Among these are the curtain wall systems. The curtain walls are glazed elements that can cover the building façade entirely and provide thermal and enclosure ...
Artificial Intelligence Applied to the Control and Monitoring of Construction Site Personnel
(Springer, 2023)
Acceso restringido
Many countries are working towards gradually lifting restrictions generated by the COVID-19 virus as post-quarantine measures. The construction industry has had to adapt to new forms of work with economic and physical ...
Post-Cracking Properties of Concrete Reinforced with Polypropylene Fibers through the Barcelona Test
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Acceso abierto
The Barcelona method was developed as an alternative to other tests for assessing the post-cracking behavior of fiber-reinforced concrete, with the main advantage being that it uses significantly smaller specimens compared ...
Finite Element Model for End-Plate Beam-to-Column Connections Under Bending and Axial Forces
(Springer, 2023)
Acceso restringido
The assessment of steel beam-to-column connections is a fundamental piece in the design process of steel structures according to the guidelines established by standards such as Eurocode 3—Part 1.8 and ANSI/AISC 358-16. In ...
Determination of Polypropylene Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Compressive Strength and Elasticity Modulus via Ultrasonic Pulse Tests
(MDPI, 2022)
Acceso abierto
Compressive strength and elasticity modulus are the main mechanical properties of concrete. The non-destructive ultrasound pulse test can be used to determine these properties without compromising the structure’s integrity. ...
VDC in Practice: A Preliminary Categorization of Production Metrics reported in Scandinavia and Latin America
(The International Group for Lean Construction, 2022)
Acceso abierto
Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) teams are increasingly using emerging management methods involving collaboration, lean construction, and digitization for managing projects. Production metrics (PM) are being ...
Dataset of manually classified images obtained from a construction site
(Elsevier, 2022)
Acceso abierto
A manually classified dataset of images obtained by four static cameras located around a construction site is presented. Eight object classes, typically found in a construction environment, were considered. The dataset ...
A Comparative Analysis of Production Metrics across VDC Implementations
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2022)
Acceso restringido
Production metrics (PM) are important yardsticks for AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) teams to determine whether their projects are on track. This paper reports on research that looked for empirical evidence ...
