There is nothing worse for curb appearance than chipped and cracked concrete, particularly in steps. But you don’t have to put up with that blight any longer. By the result of weather changes exerted on an existing construction for prolonged time, it causes contraction and expansion those gradually results concrete steps cracks and break up with time.
Dear researchers, I would like to get expert opinions on how to fix this issue with,
optimum efficiency
low cost
prolonged sustainability .
Your answers are highly welcomed.
Complex graphical sketches are highly involved in Culmann's methods. Therefore, it is highly prone for getting deviations in magnitudes for resultant pressure on retaining wall. I would like to get suggestions from RG colleagues on why Culmann's graphical approach is mostly preferred in many research papers albeit Rankine's method is easy and precise in terms of equations and substitutions. I would welcome answers from both theoretical and practical perspectives.
The concept of Circular Economy (CE) in the Construction Industry (CI) is mainly about the R-principles: Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, and Recycle. Thus, if the design stage following an effective job site management would include consideration of the whole lifecycle of the building with further directions of the possible use of the structure elements, the waste amount could be decreased or eliminated. Analysis of the current literature has shown that CE opportunities in CI are mostly linked to materials reuse. Other top-researched areas include the development of different circularity measures, especially during the construction period.
In the last decade, AI merged as a powerful method. It solved many problems in various domains, such as object detection in visual data, automatic speech recognition, neural translation, and tumor segmentation in computer tomography scans.
Despite the broader range of works on the circular economy, AI was not widely utilized in this field. Thus, I would like to ask if you have an opinion or idea on how Artificial intelligence (AI) can be useful in developing or applying circular construction activities?
Dears,
The following questionnaire is a part of my Ph.D. Thesis Degree in Civil Engineering and Construction from University of Bolton, UK.
You are kindly requested to reply to the following questions with a level of accuracy. Thanks a lot for your highly appreciated support. Furthermore, please share the questionnaire with your communities.

Cement has been in human use throughout history, and due to its binding nature, it is regarded as the backbone of the construction industry. A recent edition of the journal Nano Energy published the results from major breakthrough research conducted by engineers from Incheon National University, Kyung Hee University, and Korea University. The researchers have invented a cement-based composite (CBC) that can be used in concrete to develop electrical properties without affecting its structural performance. But what if cement could be used to generate electricity?
Any ideas from researchers?

I am wondering about the state or the aftermath of using plastic waste aggregate in construction materials. Is the brick/concrete containing plastic waste do not have environmental impacts and safe to be used?
Shall construction robots function independently from context factors as stand-alone products (and be designed as such) or be seen, developed, and operated as systems integrated with the context? Or both? Or none? Both directions have advantages and disadvantages of course. What is your experience/opinion on this?
I don't know whether I have understood your topic well.I have attached a photo in which it shows a corner of masonry wall.Where you can see the bricks have overlapped each other to give better bond strength.
labour output rates for the following: masonry, carpentry, paints and coatings and reinforcement steel bars etc.
We are getting a different Si/Al ratio from SEM/ EDX analysis. I want to know what the proper ratio is to fabricate the geopolymer for only constrction applications (like making beam).
There were quite some catastrophic fires out-breaking in the buildings during construction in both Asian and Europe. Is there any research works carried out on the structural fire engineering and proof in the construction phase?
How to define a suitable composite building structure of steel and concrete in various regions of the globe as per their respect material cost and labor conditions of the local construction industry?
