Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Contractor Perception Towers Industrialised Building System Risk in Construction Projects in MalaysiaSalihudin Hassim, Mohd Saleh Jaafar, Saiful Azri Abu Hasan SazalliThe use of IBS (Industrialised Building System) has attracted a lot of countries like Singapore, Sweden, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom. This system can replace the conventional building system which is labour oriented. However, since the first project of IBS in year 1964 till today, IBS in Malaysia is not well accepted by the construction parties because of failure … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 9,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards A Dynamic Object-Oriented Design Metric Plug-in FrameworkC. H. Loh, S. P. LeeProblem Statement: The evolution of software is made difficult by the need to integrate new features with all previously implemented features in software applications. Approach: present study introduced a general-purpose, platform-independent object-oriented design metric plug-in framework called jmetric intended to help building scalable, extendable object-oriented design metric plug-ins. jmetric seeks to address problem by providing the plug-in developer a structured … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Architectural Outer Shape and Function of Buildings: Behaviour Study on Building Constructed in ChinaISSA. A.M. Al-Kahtani, Suhaib Yahya Kasim Al-DarziThe present study attempted to investigate the behaviour of some projects designed and constructed in China during the last decades from an architectural view point and their compatibility with respect to the relationship between the outer shape and function of the building. The study includes different groups of architectural works including; Culture architecture, Education architecture, Office architecture and Hotel architecture … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValorization of Drinking Water Treatment Sludges as Raw Materials to Produce Concrete and MortarR.M. Ramirez Zamora, O. Ceron Alfaro, N. Cabirol et al.The purpose of this work was to assess the technical feasibility to valorize sludges, generated and stored at the Los Berros drinking water facility (PPLB), as raw material to produce building products (mortar and concrete) for the construction industry. The experimental study was divided into three stages: 1) sampling and characterization of PPLB sludges to determine their potential as raw … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Voice-Based Door Access Control System Using Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS) for Building SecurityWahyudi, Winda Astuti, Syazilawati MohamedSecure buildings are currently protected from unauthorized access by a variety of devices. Even though there are many kinds of devices to guarantee the system safety such as PIN pads, keys both conventional and electronic, identity cards, cryptographic and dual control procedures, the people voice can also be used. The ability to verify the identity of a speaker by analyzing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 8,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
