Lumped Construction Sequence for Column Shortening Analysis in High Rise Building with Outrigger System
Abstract: The exact value of column shortening is not a straightforward task. Various parameters are affected on column shortening results like rate of construction sequence and reinforcement ratio. The building should stand with high stiffness and must be able to resist lateral deformation without having discomfort to the user. The excessive drift is controlled by using outrigger system. In high rise buildings, the construction sequence analysis and conventional sequence analysis are …

A Ventilated Dual-Function Photonic–Phononic Metasurface for Simultaneous Passive Radiative Cooling and Low-Frequency Noise Mitigation in Building Envelopes: Conceptual Design and Computational Feasibility Analysis
Abstract: Acoustic metamaterials for sound insulation and photonic/radiative-cooling metamaterials for passive thermal management have each matured separately for building-envelope retrofit, but existing studies address ventilation, acoustic damping and radiative thermal control in isolation, and no reported unit-cell architecture co-designs all three within a single shared structure. This gap persists because materials that are acoustic absorptive are generally dense and structurally opaque, whereas materials that are highly solar-reflective are conventionally applied to …
