Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building01:26

Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building

As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground cistern.
Second Derivatives of Implicit Functions01:29

Second Derivatives of Implicit Functions

Elliptical arches are fundamental in architectural and structural engineering, offering aesthetic appeal and structural efficiency. The shape of an elliptical arch follows a constrained geometric relationship where the height and horizontal position are implicitly related. This means that the height y cannot be explicitly expressed as a function of the horizontal position x, necessitating implicit differentiation for slope and curvature analysis.The equation of an ellipse centered at the origin...
Masonry Curtain Walls01:20

Masonry Curtain Walls

Masonry curtain walls employ brick or stone veneers supported by the building's structure to form an external cladding system that is both aesthetically appealing and functional. These walls are erected through two principal techniques, first by traditional layering of masonry units and second by using prefabricated panels. Traditional construction relies on steel shelf angles attached to the spandrel beam for support, with high-bond mortars ensuring secure attachment of masonry veneer units.
Posttensioned Masonry Walls01:15

Posttensioned Masonry Walls


Post-tensioned masonry walls use high-strength steel rods or flexible tendons to enhance the strength and efficiency of masonry structures. These elements are securely anchored to the foundation and extend vertically either within the cores of the masonry units or between the masonry wythes. The construction process involves building the wall with these tensioning elements in place and allowing the mortar to fully cure.
Following the curing process, the tensioning begins. Steel rods are...
Masonry Loadbearing Walls01:16

Masonry Loadbearing Walls

Masonry load-bearing walls, constructed from materials like brick, stone, or concrete masonry units, serve as a crucial component in building structures by supporting the loads from floors and roofs and transferring them to the foundation. These walls, known for their compressive strength, can be reinforced or unreinforced to suit different building needs, accommodating both the dead and live loads while maintaining safety through lower working stresses compared to the materials' ultimate...
Indeterminate Structure01:18

Indeterminate Structure

Indeterminate structures refer to structures where internal forces and reactions cannot be determined using only the equations of static equilibrium.  Indeterminate structures have more unknown forces and reaction forces than equations of static equilibrium that can be used to determine them. Indeterminate structures are often used in engineering to create complex, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing structures. There are various types of indeterminate structures used in engineering and some...

Area of Science:

  • Architectural Psychology
  • Environmental Psychology
  • Educational Facility Design

Background:

  • Post-occupancy evaluation (POE) is crucial for understanding building performance.
  • Existing POE tools may not adequately capture user experience in educational settings.
  • School architecture significantly impacts learning and well-being.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a comprehensive questionnaire for the post-occupancy evaluation of school architecture.
  • To provide a tool for assessing user perceptions across various school building domains.
  • To facilitate evidence-based design improvements in educational facilities.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a modular questionnaire based on a literature review.
  • Inclusion of a semantic differential section and items across six key domains: aesthetics, equipment, room climate, spatial cognition, privacy/publicity, and personalization/identification.
  • The questionnaire is available in German for students aged 10+ and teachers.

Main Results:

  • A validated questionnaire for school architecture POE was successfully developed.
  • The instrument covers critical aspects of the built environment relevant to school users.
  • The questionnaire is ready for application in German-speaking educational contexts.

Conclusions:

  • The developed questionnaire offers a robust tool for evaluating school architecture.
  • It enables systematic data collection on user satisfaction and environmental perception.
  • Findings can inform future school design and renovation projects for enhanced learning environments.
