Review On BIM-Based (Revit+Robot Software) Comparative Wind Load Analysis of High-Rise RCC Buildings in Zone-III, IV and V
Abstract: Wind load is one of the most critical factors influencing the design and serviceability of high-rise reinforced concrete (RCC) buildings. As building height increases, wind-induced effects such as storey drift, lateral displacement, and structural stiffness become dominant design considerations. Numerous studies have been conducted using conventional and advanced techniques such as Finite Element Method (FEM), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Building Information Modelling (BIM). However, limited research focuses on comparative …

Study on GP Zones Formation in the Sc Inoculated Ternary Al-Zn-Mg Alloys
Abstract: Mostly, ternary Al-Zn-Mg (7075) alloys are used in automotive and aerospace engineering due to readily age-hardening response and high specific strength-to-density ratio. Scandium (Sc) has great inoculation effect in Al-Zn-Mg alloys. The cast Al-Zn-Mg alloys system undergoes a complex transition sequence in order to gain maximum strength. This sequence consists of solutionizing then immediate quenching in water (T4), natural ageing and artificial ageing (T6); usually, in several temperature steps to …

Integrating Social Perception and Economic Valuation for Riparian Zone Preservation: Evidence from Kiliti Watershed, Ethiopia
Abstract: Riparian zones play a crucial role in maintaining watershed health by providing ecosystem services such as water filtration, erosion control, biodiversity conservation, and aesthetic and cultural benefits to surrounding communities. Despite their importance, riparian areas in many developing countries are increasingly degraded due to agricultural expansion, grazing pressure, and settlement encroachment. This study integrates social perception analysis with economic valuation to assess riparian zone preservation in the Kiliti Watershed, Northwestern …

“FORCE-DISPLACEMENT TRADE OFF” OF RCC BUILDING LOCATED AT VARIOUS SEISMIC ZONES AND SITE CONDITION ADOPTING TIME-HISTORY ANALYSIS
Abstract: Earthquake-resistant or aseismic design are considered to protect buildings to some or greater extent from earthquakes. The force-displacement trade off of structures located in various seismic zones are different in nature depending on intensity of earthquake. No structure can be fully immune to damage from earthquake, the vulnerability can be reduced for safety and durability. The force-displacement behavior of a particular structure can be modified to withstand seismic occurrence preventing …
