Residential construction manufacturing estimating framework: the case of lightweight timber framing
DownloadFall 2020
The term industrialized construction was adopted by the offsite construction industry where the building components are prefabricated in factories and then transported to the construction site for on-site assembly. With this shift towards industrialized construction, new challenges were...

Steel plate shear walls have typically been analyzed using quasi static and monotonic pushover analysis; however, dynamic excitations during an earthquake elicit different behaviour from the structure due to the nature of the loading. This report outlines the design and analysis of a steel plate...

Many geological deposits contain nonlinear anisotropic features such as veins, channels, folds or local changes in orientation; numerical property modeling must account for these features to be reliable and predictive. This work incorporates locally varying anisotropy into inverse distance...

Incorporating the effects of complex dynamic interactions in the construction decision making process
DownloadFall 2011
Construction projects involve complex interactions among operational components such as labour, materials and equipment and context or organizational components such as worker morale and organizational policies. Interactions among different components of construction projects form byzantine...

While numerical modeling and coupling techniques have been continuously studied, analytical solution or proxy modeling for geomechanical coupling of the steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) has not been clearly addressed in the literature. Simulations aside, there is no particular study on the...

Route Level Dynamic Travel Time Estimation on Freeway: A Case Study in Edmonton on Whitemud Drive
DownloadSpring 2016
Travel time is increasing critical in Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS) for traffic management. Several years ago, traditional methods for e.g. travel time measurement and average historical methods were often used. However, they are expensive and inflexible. Besides, lots of...
