Spring 2012
Partially encased composite columns consist of thin-walled built-up H-shaped steel sections with links welded near the flange tips and concrete cast between the flanges. The use of PEC columns under concentric axial load only was incorporated into the Canadian steel design standard, CAN/CSA...

Behaviour of Steel Shear Connections for Assessing Structural Vulnerability to Disproportionate Collapse
DownloadFall 2013
The performance of structures under the effects of extreme loads can be a critical consideration in their design. The potential for disproportionate collapse following localized damage to a column can be mitigated by the provision of sufficient strength and ductility throughout a structural...

Fall 2023
The main objective of this study was to develop an analytical model for predicting the diaphragm deflection and the induced shear force at the panel joints when the applied load is perpendicular to the panel length. An equivalent finite-element model was developed to capture the elastic...

Spring 2017
Collaboration among project participants is key to the success of construction projects. When project information is not efficiently communicated or easily shared among project stakeholders, such conditions often lead to cost overruns and schedule delays. Particularly, this phenomenon can...

Spring 2020
The development of building information modelling has facilitated the improvement of cost and time management in panelized construction, one of the most popular and efficient methods for constructing residential buildings. However, in most cases, the drainage system is currently still installed...

BIM-based Automated Design Checking for Building Permit in the Light-Frame Building Industry
DownloadSpring 2019
Automation of the code compliance checking process has been explored extensively, particularly in recent years with the emergence of building information modelling. Still, automated code compliance checking has not yet been fully realized, as there is no standardized method for rule...

BIM-based Automated Planning for Panelized Construction in the Light-Frame Building Industry
DownloadFall 2016
Building information modelling (BIM) has been recognized as an information technology with the potential to profoundly change the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, and has drawn attention from numerous scholars within the construction domain. Despite the reported...

BIM-Based Data Mining Approach to Estimating Job Man-Hour Requirements in Structural Steel Fabrication
DownloadSpring 2015
In a steel fabrication shop, jobs from different clients and projects are generally processed simultaneously in order to streamline production processes, improve resource utilization, and achieve cost-effectiveness in serving multiple concurrent steel-erection sites. Reliable quantity takeoff on...

BIM-based Motion Planning of Mobile Crane Operation in Modular-based Heavy Construction Sites
DownloadFall 2014
Modular-based construction is becoming increasingly a key role in oil sands development in Alberta, Canada. Modules are generally installed by large-capacity mobile cranes based on one of two lifting options: (1) pick from fixed positions, in which case the crane delivers the payloads from a...
