Assessing the Impact of Experienced Project Team Members in Green Building Projects

Venkataraman, V; Cheng, JCP [Conference-Full-text]

Project experience is generally regarded as highly valuable in the architecture, engineering and construction industry. This is also true for green building projects, which often need to deal with new building technologies ...
ASSESSMENT ON DEFECTS OCCURENCE AND REWORK COSTS IN HOUSING CONSTRUCTION SECTOR IN SRI LANKA

Dahanayake, BMY; Ramachandra, T [Conference-Full-text]

Defects in building construction are considered to be one of the recurring problems in the construction industry. It has adverse effects on project performance, building performance, and client or end-user satisfaction. The ...
Automated whole slide imaging for conventional optical microscopes

Mallawaarachchi, s; Wimalana, KWSS; Wimalana, AS; Premalal, GVA; Samarasinghe, S; Dayananda, NWN [Conference-Abstract]

Optical microscopes are used to observe magnified views of specimens that are infinitesimal to be directly observed by the human eye. They are commonly used in histopathology, where urgent reports are often crucial in ...
An automatic classifier for exam questions in engineering : a process for Bloom's taxonomy

Jayakodi, K; Bandara, M; Perera, GIUS [Conference-Abstract]

Assessment is an essential activity to achieve the objective of the course being taught and to improve the teaching and learning process. There are several educational taxonomies that can be used to assess the efficacy of ...
Back analysis and rectification of a failed cut slope in the Southern Expressway

Dharmasena, UKNP; Bandara, KN; Karunawardena, WA; Kulathilaka, SAS [Conference-Abstract]

A failure occurred in a cut slope of the southern expressway where all the surface drainage measures had been implemented. The failure surface was shallow but it has disrupted three levels of ...
Barriers to the Implementation of Concurrent Engineering Practices within the UK Construction Industry

Manewa, A; Siriwardena, M; Ross, A [Conference-Full-text]

Concurrent Engineering (CE) is considered as one of the emerging methods in the UK construction industry. The product and process optimisation through ‘integration’ is a key concern of CE. The integrative aspect is ...
Behaviour of Concrete Produced with Cement and Rice Husk Ash

Abdullah, MAA; Gamage, JCPH [Conference-Full-text]

Disposal of rice husk and its ash has been identified as a major problem in areas where rice production is abundance. Cement is an expensive material which plays a major role in the construction industry. This study shows ...
Behaviour of Different Bracing Systems in High Rise 3-D Benchmark Building under Seismic Loadings

Patil, DM; Sangle, KK [Article-Full-text]
