Virtual prototyping of products is considered as a consistent simulation and visualization process mapping the source product model into its target visual representations. The approach enables to interrelate formally the product and visual information models with each other by defining mapping rules, to specify a prototyping scenario as a composition of map instances, and then to explore particular product models in virtual reality environments by interpreting the composed scenario. Having been realized, the proposed approach provides for the strongly formalized method and the common software framework to build virtual prototyping applications. As a result, the applications gain in expressiveness, reusability and reliability, as well as take on additional runtime flexibility...

The influence parameter will be appraised. The bonding characteristics an the bonding failure of the tested GFRP rebars will be classified. The determination of anchorage length for GFRP rebars will be shown based on bond models for GFRP rebars analogue to reinforcing steel. The scope of tests performed on GFRP reinforced beams and concrete tensile specimens will allow investigation into effects on the specific mechanical behaviours and the specific bonding characteristic of GFRP reinforcing bars on cracking formation. The effects of the physical behaviours of reinforcing material, percentage of reinforcement, concrete strength and type of loading on tension stiffening as well as crack pattern, crack widths and crack spacing will also be examined. Analysis of the results from these experiments will determine whether statements regarding crack width calculation are transferable between reinforced concrete structures and GFRP reinforced concrete structures.

For such tasks, the best measurement system provides maximum separation between candidate models. In this work, the degree of separation between models is measured using Shannon’s Entropy Function. The location and type of measurement devices are chosen such that the entropy of candidate models is greatest. This methodology is tested on a laboratory structure and, to demonstrate generality, an existing fresh water supply network in a city in Switzerland. In both cases, the methodology suggests an appropriate set of sensors for identifying the state of the system.

T1 - User Requirements Capture in Distributed Project Environments: A Process-centred Approach N2 - Efforts to define standards for representing AEC/FM data have been fairly successful. However defining a standard reference process model has not met with the same success. Yet almost every conceptual modelling or software development project starts by defining the business processes to be supported and the related requirements to be satisfied. This paper describes a new process-centred methodology for user requirements capture developed in the ICCI project (IST-2001-33022). Its essence is in recognising user requirements and use cases in the context of the real construction process, identifying the actors and roles for each individual activity and associating these activities with information, communication and standardisation requirements on the basis of a formalised specification, named the Process Matrix. In the paper we outline the history of process matrix development, introduce the basic structure of the matrix and show how it can be further extended and refined. We present also a web-based software implementation of the developed approach, describe how it has been used in ICCI and outline further perspectives.

Bei dieser biegebeanspruchten hybriden Verbundkombination bietet das zugbeanspruchte Holz und die druckbeanspruchte mineralische Deckschicht im Verbund ein günstigeres Biegetragverhalten und verbessert im Vergleich zum reinen Brettstapeldeckenelement dessen Eigenschaften. Für die Steifigkeit und die Tragfähigkeit der Verbundkonstruktion ist die Ausbildung der Verbundfuge, die effektive Übertragung der Schubkraft ausschlaggebend. Die vom Verfasser der Arbeit durchgeführten Versuche haben gezeigt, dass der Einsatz alternativer Verbundfugenausführungen grundsätzlich möglich ist. Mit diesem Wissen scheint neben dem Einsatz nachgiebiger Verbindungsmittel auch die Heranziehung, Erfassung und Optimierung des Flächen- sowie Reibungsverbundes zwischen flächigen Holzelementen und mineralischen Deckschichten eine effiziente und sichere Fugenausbildung darzustellen. Für weiterreichende und genauere Aussagen, sind neben der versuchstechnischen Abklärung der Wirksamkeit möglicher chemischer als auch mechanischer Modifikationen der Holzoberfläche in der Verbundfuge computergestützte Kurzzeit- sowie auch Langzeituntersuchungen zur Abschätzung der Möglichkeiten und Zuverlässigkeit des Flächenverbundes zwischen Brettstapelelement und mineralischer Deckschicht unabdingbar gewesen. Als Deckschichtvarianten kamen Normalbeton, Zementestrich, Anhydritestrich und Geopolymerbeton zur Anwendung. Es konnte durch eine statistische Auswertung im Resultat ein Gesamtüberblick über das Tragverhalten von hybriden Verbundelementen mit mineralischen Deckschichten und spezieller Oberflächenbehandlung des Holzes gegeben werden. Dabei wirkten sich die Vorteile bei der Nutzung des Flächenverbundes vor allem auf den Gebrauchszustand des Bauteils aus. Die Steifigkeit des Verbundbauteils wurde durch den Flächenverbund erhöht und es wurden damit günstigere Voraussetzungen für den Nachweis der Gebrauchstauglichkeit vor allem bei Spannweiten über 5,0 m erzielt. Die Untersuchungen zeigen die grundlegende Anwendbarkeit für Brettstapel im Flächenverbund mit mineralischen Baustoffen. N2 - Timber-composite elements for buildings combining the favourable load-carrying and surface characteristics of mineral-bound facing and structural timber. The connection between timber and covering layer is of fundamental importance for the stiffness properties and overall performance. Since these systems have been usually realized as timber-concrete composite beams and vertical laminated slabs or revitalization of wooden joists ceilings, metal and groove connectors were usually investigated and used for shear force transfer. Thereby, the separating layer prevented a direct and overall bound. For investigation of the natural adhesion between timber and the covering layer as well as the shear force transfer, different modifications of the timber floor surface (e.g. profiled lamellas) and mineral-bound layer were tested, in fact roughly saws and additionally profiled lamellae of nail-laminated timber elements in combination with accepted mineral-bound layers, for instance concrete, concrete of geopolymer, cement and anhydrite screed. The accomplished tests were completely done without additionally metal connectors and separating layer. Only the natural adhesive bond between timber and applied mineral-bound facing should be sufficient to transfer the shear and tension forces between the layers. An overview of shear, tension and bending tests, performed to examine the load-slip behaviour is given. Based on these numerical simulations and test results the behaviour of natural surface bond is described.

Ausgehend von der musterorientierten Perspektive - das heißt Untersuchungsgegenstand sind chronologische Abfolgen von Ortsveränderungen und Tätigkeiten in Form von Wege-Aktivitätenmustern - besteht das Ziel einer möglichst realitätsnahen Abbildung und Erklärung von individuellen Unterschieden im Raum-Zeit-Verhalten. Neu bzw. kaum etabliert sind in diesem Kontext der eigens konzipierte Multimethodenansatz sowie die Optimal Matching Technik, die erweiterte Abbildungseigenschaften zur Distanzmessung zwischen Wege-Aktivitätenmustern aufweist. Erkannt werden durch jene Methode gleiche Tätigkeiten bzw. Ortsveränderungen, die zeitlich an unterschiedlichen Stellen der zu vergleichenden Muster angeordnet sind sowie identische Subsequenzen. Zielführend in der Datenanalyse ist nachstehende Abfolge von Verfahren: Die Klassifikation von Wege-Aktivitätenmustern zur Reduktionen deren immenser Komplexität gelingt durch Einsatz der Optimal Matching Technik. Diese quantifiziert (Un-)ähnlichkeiten zwischen Wege-Aktivitätenmustern („Abstandsmessung“) unterschiedlicher Personen oder zu vergleichender Zeitabschnitte einer Person. Die dadurch berechnete Distanzmatrix bildet den Ausgangspunkt des clusteranalytischen Fusions-algorithmus, dessen Aufgabe die Zusammenfassung der Wege-Aktivitätenmuster ist (explorative Stufe). Die Anwendung eines multinomialen Logit-Modells ermöglicht auf Individualebene die Vorhersage der Affinität zu Wege-Aktivitätenmuster-Typen anhand von Merkmalswerten identifizierter Erklärungsgrößen der Personen, des Haushaltes usw. (induktive Stufe). Im Gegensatz zu einschlägigen Forschungsarbeiten zeichnet sich die gewählte Untersuchungsstrategie durch die Objektivität des Vorgehens aus, da eine a-priori Bildung von Personen-kategorien nicht notwendig ist. Ebenso grenzt die Berücksichtigung der zufälligen und nicht-erklärbaren Verhaltensvariabilität durch das Wahrscheinlichkeitsprinzip des gewählten Logit-Modells das eigene Vorgehen von anderen Untersuchungen ab. Aufgrund der weitgehend ungeklärten Anwendungsgrundlagen der Optimal Matching Technik befasst sich die vorliegende Arbeit zunächst mit dessen inhaltlicher Ausrichtung am Untersuchungsgegenstand. Die Anpassung der festzulegenden Aufwandswerte, welche für die benötigten Aktionen angesetzt werden, um ein Wege-Aktivitätenmuster in ein anderes zu transformieren, erfolgt mit Hilfe einer empirisch Abschätzung, die weit über ein argumentatives Vorgehen hinausgeht. Der ermittelte Sequenzabstand inkludiert dabei die operationsspezifische Distanz bei Übergängen zwischen den konstituierenden Zuständen der zu vergleichenden Wege-Aktivitätenmuster („Zustandsähnlichkeit“). Abstandsmaß für die qualitativen Zustände ist dabei die ermittelte Priorität von wege- und tätigkeitenbezogenen Handlungen. Die Relevanz einer Ausrichtung belegt auch die durchgeführte Sensitivitätsanalyse: Das Ausmaß der Empfindlichkeit der Optimal Matching Technik ist insbesondere gegenüber der Festlegung der Aufwandswerte beträchtlich. Um die Analysepotenziale des Multimethodenansatzes zu demonstrieren, werden exemplarisch interpersonelle Unterschiede im wöchentlichen Aktivitäten-(Verkehrs-)verhaltens (Datenbasis: deutsches Mobilitätspanel) analysiert. Ergebnis der Klassifikation (explorative Analysestufe) ist eine auf den ersten Blick inhaltlich stichhaltige Wege-Aktivitätenmuster-Typologie charakteristischer Wochenabläufe des Aktivitäten-(Verkehrs-)verhaltens: Unterschiedliche Arten, zeitlicher Umfang und zeitliche Lage der Haupt-aktivitäten, unterschiedliche Verkehrsverhaltensweisen sowie unterschiedliche clusterspezifische Tag zu Tag Rhythmen, Gleichförmigkeiten, Schwankungen usw. des Raum-Zeit-Verhaltens kennzeichnen die Wege-Aktivitätenmuster-Typen. Die Abbildungs-eigenschaften der Optimal-Matching Technik zeichnen sich in den erstellten Clustern nur teilweise ab: Während die Zustandselementkomposition - augenscheinlich betrachtet - passabel durch die Wege-Aktivitätenmuster-Typologie abgebildet wird, bleibt ungewiss, ob und inwieweit dies für die Abfolgeähnlichkeit gilt. Aus dem induktiven Analyseschritt geht hervor: Alter, Geschlecht, Verfügbarkeit einer ÖPNV-Zeitkarte, Führerscheinbesitz und mit herausragender Bedeutung der Erwerbsstatus signalisieren als maßgebende Erklärungsgrößen eine Trennwirkung. Überdies zeigt das Gesamtbild der ermittelten Wirkungsrichtungen und Effektstärken überzeugende Erklärungszusammenhänge auf. Damit ist ein Nachweis der Praktikabilität des eigens konzipierten Multimethodenansatzes unter Verwendung der Optimal Matching Technik zur musterorientierten Analyse des Raum-Zeit-Verhaltens erbracht. N2 - Social change is reflected in more and more complex individual travel-activity behaviour, which can be represented as travel-activity patterns. The analytical classification of travel activty-pattern into groups and the description of the travel activty-pattern types is an important issue to travel-activty behaviour analysis for a long time. A realistic measure between individual travel-activity patterns is the basis for the analysis and the description of differences in travel-activity behaviour. In the centre of the multi-method-approach stands the practical application of the so-called Optimal Matching Technique. This approach is adapted, tested and applied. This method involves the element composition - identical activities and trips in both travel-activity patterns, which are arranged in different positions - and the element order - the identical order of activities and trips in both travel-activity patterns. The multi-method approach contains the following basic components: Classification of the travel-activity pattern: Statistical analysis starts with the most important point: the application of the Optimal Matching Technique. This sequence alignment method quantifies dissimilarities between travel-activity patterns in the form of distances. While conventional distance measures for sequences compare only elements of the same position, the Optimal Matching Technique extends the ability to measure the degree of differences between sequences. The result of the application of the Optimal Matching Technique is a symmetrical distance matrix, in which dissimilarity scores for the travel-activity patterns pairs are specified. As a second step, the purpose of the application of the cluster analysis is to classify the travel-activity pattern based on the calculated distance matrix of the Optimal Matching Technique Description of the travel-activity pattern types: The identification of variables, which explain the affinity to a travel-activity pattern type as independent variables, forms the main function of the last methodological step. For this problem, the use of a multinomial logit model is appropriate, because this method allows a determination of influences of different explanatory variables on a dependent, categorial variable. The explanatory model results in statements of probability for a person with personal, household and spatial characteristics to realize travel-activity pattern types. The multi-method approach is characterised by a direct strategy, which guarantees a high level of objectivity. Further on a probabilistic causal relation between person type and travel-activity pattern type is appropriate on the background of social change. The statistical methods for cluster analysis and the logit model are “state of the practice”. Only the new method Optimal Matching Technique will be described closer. For the application of the Optimal Matching Technique a priori assumptions must be made for the ”cost” of the transformation operation, which is a key issue of the method. The criteria of priority is introduced as a measure for states and changes in states for activities and trips. Testing the sensitivity of the results of the Optimal Matching Technique depends on the definition of “cost”. It can be concluded that there is a strong influence on travel-activity pattern distances. The multi-method approach is applied in an exemplary manner both to classify weekly travel-activity pattern and to describe the travel-activity pattern types. The empirical data-base is the German Mobility Panel (MOP). The classification results in a seven cluster solution of weekly travel-activity pattern types, which can be interpreted in a plausible way. It can be shown, that the approach of comparing activity-travel pattern based on the Optimal Matching Technique captures the element composition. It remains uncertain if and how far this succeeds to the element order. The seven travel-activity pattern types can be described in terms of sociodemographic characteristics ("age", “gender” and "status of employment"), “driving licence” and “discount public transport”.

Im Mittelpunkt dieser regionalwissenschaftlichen Forschungsarbeit stehen räumliche Disparitäten der Versorgungs- und Angebotssicherung sowie bisher kaum betrachtete räumliche Strukturen und Interdependenzen der Pflegebedürftigkeit und Pflegeleistungen. Hierzu wurden vom Autor mehrere regional differenzierte Datenerhebungen aller teilstationären und vollstationären pflegebedürftigen Menschen und der Pflegeinfrastruktureinrichtungen im Freistaat Thüringen durchgeführt.Durch die Integration explorativer Analysemethoden in die empirische Regionalforschung wird die Pflegelandschaft Thüringens für den Zeitraum 1994 bis 2000 dokumentiert und anhand eines relationalen Indikatorensystems die Strukturen und räumlichen Muster der Pflegebedürftigkeit und -infrastruktur, soziodemographischen und raumstrukturellen Einflusskomponenten sowie pflegespezifische Interdependenzen exploriert und analysiert. Ein Ergebnis sind typologische Aussagen zum Alter, zur Pflegeart und -schwere oder Struktur der Pflegeleistungen in einer hochauflösenden topologischen Differenzierung nach regionaler Herkunft pflegebedürftiger Menschen. So hat die Einführung der Pflegeversicherung die Situation der meisten pflegebedürftigen Menschen in Thüringen deutlich verbessert. In der Zeitreihenuntersuchung treten diese Anfangserfolge aber hinter identifizierten Problemlagen aus z.B. sukzessiver Polarisierung der Pflegeleistungen, wachsenden Infrastrukturdisparitäten mit exakt quantifizierbaren Wanderungsbewegungen pflegebedürftiger Menschen zurück. Ein Ergebnis topologischer Analysen sind regionale (Versorgungs-) Disparitäten, die zu nachgewiesenen Wanderungsbewegungen pflegebedürftiger Menschen führen.So resultiert die noch nachweisbare Leistungs- bzw. Funktionsfähigkeit der Pflegelandschaft Thüringens (im Sinne der pflegerischen Grundversorgung einer Teilkaskoversicherung) primär aus noch günstigen Rahmenbedingungen wie dem „selbstverständlich“ erbrachten informellen Pflegeleistungen (der Frauen und Töchter) und nur sekundär (oder kaum) aus der durchaus noch guten finanziellen Situation der Pflegeversicherung. Ferner konnte gezeigt werden, dass wachsende Versorgungsdisparitäten nur anteilig eine Infrastrukturproblematik darstellen.Die Ergebnisse werden im Hinblick auf die entwickelten Methoden und weiteren Untersuchungen diskutiert und im Kontext des theoretischen Teils u.a. zur Entwicklung der Altenhilfe, Pflegeversicherung und sozialen Infrastrukturversorgung betrachtet und vor den Konsequenzen des demographischen Wandels reflektiert. Mit den Untersuchungsergebnissen fordert der Autor, dass Alterung und Schrumpfung der Bevölkerung in Teilräumen als dominante Entwicklung nicht verleugnet werden darf, damit durch eine integrative Gesamtsicht einer auch sozial nachhaltigen Raumentwicklung die pflegespezifische Forderung nach einem möglichst selbstbestimmten und selbständigen Leben (im eigenen Haushalt) gewahrt und das Grundrecht auf Würde auch pflegebedürftiger Menschen gewährleistet bleibt.Dazu wird vorgeschlagen, mit einer modernen Regionalforschung, die durch hochauflösende Datenerfassung, neuen explorativen statistischen Analysemethoden und in Verbindung mit aussagekräftigen Visualisierungsverfahren ein qualifiziertes Monitoring- und Analysesystem für die Raumbeobachtung aufzubauen, um Problemregionen rechzeitig identifizieren und Planungen zeitnah initiieren zu können.

While the traditional manual matching approach cannot meet today’s demands on data exchange, research shows that a fully automated generic approach for model matching is not likely, and generic semi-automated approaches are not easy to implement. In this paper, we present an approach that focuses on matching data models in a specific domain. The approach combines a basic model matching approach and a version matching approach to deduce new matching rules to enable data transfer between two evolving data models.

Also effective disaster management demands decentralized, dynamic, flexible, short term and across domain resource sharing, which is not well supported by existing distributing computing infrastructres. The paper proposes a conceptual framework for emergency management in the built environment, using Semantic Grid as an integrating platform for different technologies. The framework supports a distributed network of specialists in built environment, including structural engineers, building technologists, decision analysts etc. It brings together the necessary technology threads, including the Semantic Web (to provide a framework for shared definitions of terms, resources and relationships), Web Services (to provide dynamic discovery and integration) and Grid Computing (for enhanced computational power, high speed access, collaboration and security control) to support rapid formation of virtual teams for disaster management. The proposed framework also make an extensive use of modelling and simulation (both numerical and using visualisations), data mining (to find resources in legacy data sets) and visualisation. It also include a variety of hardware instruments with access to real time data. Furthermore the whole framework is centred on collaborative working by the virtual team. Although focus of this paper is on disaster management, many aspects of the discussed Grid and Visualisation technologies will be useful for any other forms of collaboration. Conclusions are drawn about the possible future impact on the built environment.

Die einfallende Solarenergie wird hauptsächlich über die Wechselwirkung mit dem Erdreich in thermische Energie, in kinetische Energie, in Rotationsenergie und in elektrische Energie umgewandelt. Das Ziel der Arbeit bestand in der physikalisch-mathematischen Modellierung, der genaueren Erkennung des Wirkprinzips und der Diskussion der Anlagenparameter Leistung und Wirkungsgrad. Im Rahmen dieser Aufgabe wurden dazu stationäre und instationäre Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) Modelle und stationäre und instationäre vereinfachte Modelle entwickelt, diskutiert und miteinander verglichen. Grundlegend neue Erkenntnisse wurden bei den Verläufen der Temperaturen im Kollektor, insbesondere der Erdoberflächentemperatur erreicht. Parameteranpassungen im Wärmeübergangsmodell und Widerstandsmodell führten für vier ausgewählte, stationäre Sonnenenergien auf eine gute Übereinstimmung zwischen den Ergebnissen (Temperaturhub, Druckentnahme, Leistung und Wirkungsgrad) des stationären, hybriden Modells und des stationären CFD-Modells. Weiterhin stimmen die lokalen Größen Wärmeübergangskoeffizient, Erdoberflächentemperatur, Lufttemperatur und Glasdachtemperatur gut zwischen den Modellen überein. Mit dem CFD Modell wurden der Prototyp und 3 Großkraftwerke berechnet. Mit dem entwickelten instationären FDM-Modell wurden erstmalig numerische Langzeitsimulationen (1 Jahr) durchgeführt. Zur Überprüfung des Modells wurden die Ergebnisse mit Messwerten aus Manzanares verglichen, wobei eine gute Übereinstimmung erreicht werden konnte. Das Verständnis für die stattfindenden thermodynamischen und strömungsmechanischen Prozesse in einem Aufwindkraftwerk konnte durch die Arbeit maßgeblich verbessert werden. N2 - The energy supply on our earth will become a problem in future. This is conditional by a shortage of the natural source, like coal, gas and oil, as well as an increase in the concentration of gasous CO2 in the atmosphere. Regenerative energy sources must be used more increasingly to saveguard the increasing energy consumption. Upwind power plants represent an interesting possibility for the use of solar energy. The upwind power plant consist of an collector, an chimney and one ore several turbines. The collector heats the air by the interaction with the ground. The glass reflects the infrared radiation of the ground. The Chimney provides a large density difference between the collector exit and the atmosphere. The goal of this work was the mathematical und physical modelling of the thermodynamics in and around an upwind power plant. Steady and unsteady CFD models and steady and unsteady simplified models were developed and compared. Basically new knowledge was reached at the courses of the temperatures in the collector. A very good agreement between the results of the steady hybrid model and the steady CFD model (temperature difference of the collector, pressure at the turbine, power and degree of effectiveness) could be found for four solar energies. Furthermore, the local values of heat-transfer coefficient, soil temperature, temperature of the fluid and the temperature of the glass roof compare very well beetwen the models. The prototyp manzanares and three large power plants were solved with the developed CFD model. Numeric long time simulations (1 year) were carried out for the first time with the developed unsteady Finite-Difference-Model. The model was compared with results of the project Manzanares. A good agreement was found. The knowledge of the thermodynamical und fluid dynamical processes in an upwind power plant were improved substantial by this work.

Die Erwärmung beruht vorrangig auf einer chemischen Reaktion, bei der das dem Boden zugemischte Calciumoxid mit Bodenwasser unter Freisetzung von Wärmeenergie zu Calciumhydroxid reagiert. Hierzu wurden zunächst die thermischen Eigenschaften feinkörniger Böden und ihre Beeinflussung durch das Herstellen des Bindemittel-Boden-Gemisches in situ untersucht. Weiterhin wurden Untersuchungen zum zeitlichen Verlauf der chemischen Reaktion und zur Größe der dabei freigesetzten Reaktionswärme vorgenommen. Mit dem Vorhaben, die mit der Säulenherstellung einhergehenden Temperaturfeldänderungen zu erfassen, wurden danach die thermischen Anfangs- und Randbedingungen des Bodens und der Bodenoberfläche untersucht und festgelegt. Anschließend wurden die zeitabhängigen Temperaturfeldänderungen auf der Grundlage der Wärmeübertragung durch Wärmeleitung mit Hilfe des Finite-Elemente-Methode Programms Ansys® 6.1 numerisch simuliert. Das Finite-Elemente-Modell wurde durch die Nachrechnung von Feldversuchen verifiziert. Im Rahmen der Finite-Elemente-Berechnungen wurde die infolge der Hydratation des Branntkalkes stattfindende Erwärmung des Bindemittel-Boden-Gemisches und des angrenzenden Bodens simuliert und hinsichtlich relevanter Einflussgrößen überprüft. Untersucht wurde der Einfluss herstellungsbedingter Faktoren wie Bindemittelkonzentration, Säulendurchmesser und Säulenanordnung sowie der Einfluss natürlicher Faktoren wie Trockendichte und Sättigungsgrad des Bodens. Die mit Hilfe der Finite-Elemente-Methode ermittelten zeitabhängigen, im Boden auftretenden Temperaturgefälle bilden die Grundlage für die Untersuchung der thermisch bedingten Wassertransportvorgänge in der Stabilisierungssäule und deren Umfeld. Zu diesem Zweck wurde die durch die Temperaturfeldbeeinflussung geänderte energetische Situation des Bodenwassers analysiert. Auch nicht-thermische, infolge der Säulenherstellung auftretende Effekte wie die durch den >Stopfeffekt< bedingte lokale Sättigungsänderung und die Beeinflussung des osmotischen Potentials einschließlich der daraus resultierenden Wasserbewegungen wurden berücksichtigt. Alle thermisch verursachten Wasser- und Dampfflüsse bewirken ein Abströmen von Porenwasser aus dem stabilisierten Erdkörper in den umliegenden Boden. Baupraktisch bleiben die durch thermische Einflüsse hervorgerufenen Wassertransportvorgänge aufgrund ihres geringen Betrages jedoch unbedeutend. In abschließenden Temperaturfeldberechnungen wurden die thermischen Bodenkennwerte an die sich zeitlich verändernde Wassersättigung des Bodens angepasst. Anhand der ermittelten Temperaturverläufe wurde aufgezeigt, dass der Einfluss der Sättigungsänderung auf die Berechnungsergebnisse sehr gering ist, und damit die Voraussetzung für die vorangegangene entkoppelte Betrachtung des Wärme- und Massestromes erfüllt ist. Aufgrund dieser Ergebnisse muss der mehrfach in der Literatur zitierte, auch mit der tiefgründigen Bodenstabilisierung in Zusammenhang gebrachte, Einfluss der Erwärmung auf die Verdunstung des Bodenwassers kritisch betrachtet und in Frage gestellt werden. Voraussetzung hierfür ist der Transport von Wasser an die Bodenoberfläche. Nennenswerte, auf Temperatureinflüssen beruhende Wasserbewegungen sind, wie die Berechnungsergebnisse gezeigt haben, nicht zu erwarten. Weitere Untersuchungen zur Festigkeitsentwicklung von Branntkalk-Boden-Säulen und deren Vorhersage sollten sich daher auf die mechanischen Effekte und auf die mineralogisch-chemischen Prozesse, wie die puzzolanischen Reaktionen, und die Möglichkeiten ihrer Prognose konzentrieren. Die Berechnungen haben gezeigt, dass die Temperaturentwicklung in der Stabilisierungssäule im Wesentlichen durch die Bindemittelkonzentration, und ihr Auskühlungsverhalten vorrangig durch ihre geometrischen Abmessungen bestimmt wird. Diese Sachverhalte sind von den Bodenparametern, der für die Stabilisierung in Frage kommenden Böden, weitestgehend unabhängig. Temperaturmessungen stellen daher ein geeignetes Mittel zur Qualitätssicherung bei der Herstellung von Branntkalk-Boden-Säulen dar, mit deren Hilfe sich Inhomogenitäten bei der Bindemittelverteilung oder Störungen beim Hydratationsvorgang (Ablöschen des Branntkalkes) nachweisen lassen. Entsprechende Hilfsmittel wurden angegeben. N2 - Deep stabilization of soil with lime columns causes thermal effects. This is mainly due to the reaction of the unslaked lime with the water in the soil. In this thesis the influence of the thermal effects on the movement of soil water was investigated. In a first step the thermal properties of the stabilized soil in the column and the surrounding soil were analysed. In order to calculate the alteration process of the temperature fields the heat generation coupled to the chemical reaction and the thermal boundary conditions like the distribution of temperature in natural soils were defined. On this base the transient change of the temperature field around the lime columns was computed using the finite element method. The numerical analysis was done with the finite element code ANSYS® 6.1. Due to the high saturation of the stabilized and the surrounding soils only heat transfer by thermal conduction was regarded in the first calculation step. For the present the coupled transport of heat and moisture was neglected as well as the influence of moisture movement on the thermal properties. The model was verified by simulating a large-scale field experiment of the Swedish Geotechnical Institute from which temperature measurements were stated. Very good correlations were achieved between experimental and numerical results. In the next step the influences of the soil parameters, the geometry of the lime columns as well as their arrangement, and the lime concentration on the numerical results were investigated. The computed transient temperature fields and the derived thermal gradients formed the basis for the analysis of temperature-dependent moisture movement in the lime columns and in the surrounding soil. Water and water vapour move due to potential gradients from high to low potential. Therefore, the change of the soil water potential caused by thermal effects was regarded. Also, non-thermal effects such as the change of saturation due to soil compaction and the alteration of the osmotic potential due to dissolution processes were taken into consideration. The calculation results indicated a flow of liquid water and water vapour from the centre of the lime columns towards the surrounding soil. The results also showed that the amount of moisture moved by thermal effects is low and does not contribute to the hardening of the lime columns. In a closing calculation step the change of saturation due to thermal and non-thermal effects was taken into account by adapting the thermal soil parameters to the time-dependent distribution of the soil water. It was shown that the altered saturation has negligible effect on the calculated temperature fields. Therefore, the assumptions made in the first calculation step, concerning the mechanism of heat transfer, were proven true. Based on these results, the often-cited influence of the heat released when unslaked lime reacts with the water in soil has to be called into question, at least in the case of the deep stabilization of soils with lime columns. That would require, for example, the transport of moisture to the soil surface, which according to the results of the calculations is not given. Further investigations into the hardening of lime columns and the prediction of this process should concentrate on mechanical and mineralogical effects such as soil compaction and the pozzolanic reactions. Temperature measurements may serve as a good tool for quality assurance, because the development of heat depends strongly on the lime concentration, while the influence of the soil parameters of the stabilized clayey soils on the change of temperature is very small. Appropriate data were given in this thesis.

However, restricted use of data beyond the initial application could potentially result in a loss of understanding of site processes. This could in turn lead to poor decision making at production, tactical and strategic levels. Concrete usage data have been collected from two piling processes. These data have been analysed and the results highlighted potential improvements that could be made to existing site management and estimating processes. A cost benefit analysis has been used to support decision making at the strategic level where the identified improvements require capital expenditure.

An examination of currently available IT-tools shows insufficient support for planning within existing contexts, most notably a deficit with regard to information capture and administration. This paper discusses the concept for a modular surveying system (basic concept, separation of geometry from semantic data, and separation into sub-systems) and the prototypical realisation of a system for the complete support of the entire building surveying process for existing buildings. The project aims to contribute to the development of a planning system for existing buildings. ...

T1 - Supporting Domain Experts in Determining Viable User Interface Designs for Wearable Computers Used in AEC Work Situations N2 - The design of mobile IT systems, especially the design of wearable computer systems, is a complex task that requires computer science knowledge, such as that related to hardware configuration and software development, in addition to knowledge of the domain in which the system is intended to be used. Particularly in the AEC sector, it is necessary that the support from mobile information technology fit the work situation at hand. Ideally, the domain expert alone can adjust the wearable computer system to achieve this fit without having to consult IT experts. In this paper, we describe a model that helps in transferring existing design knowledge from non-AEC domains to new projects in the construction area. The base for this is a model and a methodology that describes the usage scenarios of said computer systems in an application-neutral and domain-independent way. Thus, the actual design information and experience will be transferable between different applications and domains.

Software that intends to support such collaborative structural design processes implicates enormous requirements. In the course of our common research work, we analyzed the pros and cons of the application of both the peer-to-peer (University of Bonn) and multiagent architecture style (University of Bochum) within the field of collaborative structural design. In this paper, we join the benefits of both architecture styles in an integrated conceptual approach. We demonstrate the surplus value of the integrated multiagent–peer-to-peer approach by means of an example scenario in which several structural engineers are co-operatively designing the basic structural elements of an arched bridge, applying heterogeneous CAD systems.

In informationseeking dialogues, the user, i.e. construction project manager or supplier, often asks questions about specific aspects of the tasks they want to perform. But most of the time it is difficult for the software systems to unambiguously understand their overall intentions. The existence of information tunnels (Tannenbaum 2002) aggravates this phenomenon. This study includes a detailed case study of the material management process in the construction industry. Based on this case study, the structure of a formal user model for information retrieval in construction management is proposed. This prototype user model will be incorporated into the system design for construction information management and retrieval. This information retrieval system is a user-centered product based on the development of a user configurable visitor mechanism for managing and retrieving project information without worrying too much about the underlying data structure of the database system. An executable UML model combined with OODB is used to reduce the ambiguity in the user's intentions and to achieve user satisfaction.

For a computer-aided and network-based cooperation a formal description of the planning process is necessary. In the research project “Relational Process Modelling in Cooperative Building Planning” a process model is described by three parts: an organizational structure with participants, a building structure with states and a process structure with activities. This research project is part of the priority program 1103 “Network-Based Cooperative Planning Processes in Structural Engineering” promoted by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Planning processes in civil engineering can be described by workflow graphs. The process structure describes the logical planning process and can be formally defined by a bipartite graph. This structure consists of activities, transitions and relationships between activities and transitions. In order to minimize errors at execution time of a planning process a consistent and structurally correct process model must be guaranteed. This contribution considers the concept and the algorithms for checking the consistency and the correctness of the process structure.

Then the set of objects forms the data base of the application. The objects contain attributes and methods. Properties of the objects are stored in the attributes. Algorithms which the objects perform are implemented in the methods of the objects. If objects are modified by a user, the consistency of data in the base is destroyed. The data base must be modified in an update to restore its consistency. The sequence of the update operations is not arbitrary, but is governed by dependence between the objects. The situation can be described mathematically with graph theory. The available algorithms for the determination of the update sequence are not suitable when the data base is large. A new update algorithm for large data bases has been developed and is presented in this paper.

While these methods produce very detailed models of the scanned scene, useful for obtaining as-built drawings of existing structures, the associated computational time burden precludes the methods from being used onsite for real-time decision-making. Moreover, in many project life-cycle applications, detailed models of objects are not needed. Results of earlier research conducted by the authors demonstrated novel, highly economical methods that reduce data acquisition time and the need for computationally intensive processing. These methods enable complete local area modeling in the order of a minute, and with sufficient accuracy for applications such as advanced equipment control, simple as-built site modeling, and real-time safety monitoring for construction equipment. This paper describes a research project that is investigating novel ways of acquiring, integrating, modeling, and analyzing project site spatial data that do not rely on dense, expensive laser scanning technology and that enable scalability and robustness for real-time, field deployment. Algorithms and methods for modeling objects of simple geometric shape (geometric primitives from a limited number of range points, as well as methods provide a foundation for further development required to address more complex site situations, especially if dynamic site information (motion of personnel and equipment). Field experiments are being conducted to establish performance parameters and validation for the proposed methods and models. Initial experimental work has demonstrated the feasibility of this approach.

A1 - Akinci, Burcu T1 - SiDaCoS: Product and Process Models on Construction Sites N2 - Site superintendents performing project management tasks on construction sites need to access project documents and need to collect information that they observe while inspecting the site. Often, information that is observed on a construction site needs to be integrated into electronic documents or project control systems. In the future, we expect integrated product and process models to be the medium for storing and handling construction project management information. Even though mobile computing devices today are already capable of storing and handling such integrated product and process data models, the user interaction with such large and complex models is difficult and not adequately addressed in the existing research. In this paper, we introduce a system that supports project management tasks on construction sites effectively and efficiently by making integrated product and process models accessible. In order to effectively and efficiently enter or access information, site superintendents need visual representations of the project data that are flexible with respect to the level of detail, the decomposition structure, and the type of visual representation. Based on this understanding of the information and data collection needs, we developed the navigational model framework and the application Site Data Collection System (SiDaCoS), which implements that framework. The navigational model framework allows site superintendents to create customized representations of information contained in a product and process model that correspond to their data access and data collection needs on site.

The application of the proposed methodology is illustrated by its application to an actual tunneling project—The Hanging Lake Tunnel Project in Colorado, USA. To encompass the typical risks in underground construction, tunneling decisions are structured as a risk-sensitive Markov decision process that reflects the decision process faced by a contractor in each tunneling round. This decision process consists of five basic components: (1) decision stages (locations), (2) system states (ground classes and tunneling methods), (3) alternatives (tunneling methods), (4) ground class transition probabilities, and (5) tunneling cost structure. The paper also presents concepts related to risk preference that are necessary to model the contractor’s risk attitude, including the lottery concept, utility theory, and the delta property. The optimality equation is formulated, the model components are defined, and the model is solved by stochastic dynamic programming. The main results are the optimal construction plans and risk-adjusted project costs, both of which reflect the dynamics of subsurface construction, the uncertainty about geologic variability as a function of available information, and the contractor’s risk preference.

Today, ERP systems and e-Business systems are available to assist construction companies to efficiently organise the allocation of their personnel and equipment within the company, but they cannot provide the company with the idle resources for every single task that has to be performed during a construction project. Therefore, companies should have an alternative solution to better exploit expensive resources and compensate their fixed costs, but also have them available at the right time for their own business activities. This paper outlines the approach taken by the EU funded project “e-Sharing” (IST-2001-33325) to support resource management between construction companies. It will describe requirements for the management of construction resources, its core features, and the integration approach. Therefore, we will outline the approach of an integrated resource type model supporting the management and classification of construction equipment, construction tasks and qualification profiles. The development is based on a cross-domain analysis and evaluation of existing models. ...

The authors have already proposed intelligent fuzzy optimal active control (IFOAC) systems. IFOAC systems imitate intelligent activities of human brains such as prediction, adaptation, decision-kaking and so on. In IFOAC systems, objective and subjective judgements on the active control can be taken into account. However, IFOAC systems are considered to be suitable for far-field erathquake and control effect becomes small in case of near-field earthqaukes which include a few velosity pules with large amplitudes. To improve control effect in case of near-souece earthquakes, the authors have also proposed hybrid control (HC) systems, in which IFOAC systems and fuzzy control system are combined. In HC systems, the fuzzy control systems are introduced as a reflective fuzzy active control (RFAC) system and imitates spinal reflection of human. In HC systems, active control forces are activated to buildings in accordance with switching rules on active control forces. In this paper, optimizations on fuzzy control rules in RFAC system and switching rules of active control forces in HC system are performed by Parameter-Free Genetic Algorithms (PfGAs). Here, the optimization is performed by using different earthquake inputs. The results of digital simulations show that the HC system can reduce maximal response displacements under restrictions on strokes of the actuator effectively in case of a near-source earthquake and the effectiveness of the proposed HC system is discussed and clarified.

In this paper we propose a method to apply traffic impact assessment (TIA) to large-scale, commercial developments. In TIA research we often encounter the problem of increasing amount of data that is necessary for detailed investigation and analysis, as the scale of commercial developments become larger and more complex. As a result, TIA presents two problems. The first problem is the difficulty of data acquisition. The second problem is the reliability of data. As a solution, we developed an integrated database system.

This documentation is used as the starting point of the design process, but as the design progresses, it is usually left aside and changes are made incrementally based on the previous design solution. These incremental small changes can lead to a solution that may no longer meet the original requirements. In addition, design is by nature an iterative process and the proposed solutions often also cause evolution in the client requirements. However, the requirements documentation is usually not updated accordingly. Finding the latest updates and evolution of the requirements from the documentation is very difficult, if not impossible. This process can lead to an end result, which is significantly different from the documented requirements. Some important requirements may not be satisfied, and even if the design process was based on agreed-upon changes in the scope and requirements, differences in the requirements documents and in the completed building can lead to well-justified doubts about the quality of the design and construction process...

Often these data are given exclusively by paper-based drawings and no digital data such as a computer based product model or even a CAD-model are available. In order to perform mass calculation, damage mapping or a recalculation of the structure these drawings of the building under consideration have to be analysed manually by the engineer. This is a very time-consuming job. In order to close this gap between drawings of an existing building and a digital product model an approach is presented in this paper to digitise a drawing, to build up geometric and topologic models and to recognise construction parts of the building. Finally all recognised parts are transformed into a three-dimensional geometric model which provides all necessary geometric information for the product model. During this import process the semantics of a ground floor plan has to be converted into a 3D-model.

Planning processes in civil engineering are characterized by some peculiarities so that the sequence of planning tasks needs to be determined for each planning project. Neither the use of optimized partial processes nor the use of lower detailed and optimized processes guarantee an optimal overall planning process. The modeling technique considers these peculiarities. In a first step, it is focused on the logic of the planning process. Algorithms based on the graph theory determine that logic. This approach ensures consistency and logical correctness of the description of a planning process at the early beginning in its preparation phase. Sets of data – the products of engineers like technical drawings, technical models, reports, or specifications – form the core of the presented modeling technique. The production of these sets of data requires time and money. This is expressed by a specific weighting of each set of data in the presented modeling technique. The introduction of these weights allows an efficient progress measurement and controlling of a planning project. For this purpose, a link between the modeling technique used in the preparation phase and the execution phase is necessary so that target and actual values are available for controlling purposes. The present paper covers the description of this link. An example is given to illustrate the use of the modeling technique for planning processes in civil engineering projects.

This paper describes and discusses the main research directions and first results of the workgroup ‘Distributed Product Models’. The five projects of the workgroup have developed completely different solutions for specific application domains. Each solution concept deals with a consistent product modeling and knowledge processing in a distributed environment in the planning process. The individual solution approaches of the projects are described and the underlying basic assumptions are discussed. A unified system architecture is described for all projects of the workgroup. Two different approaches (object-oriented and graph-based models) have been introduced for product and knowledge modeling. The common structure of these models will be explained to fully understand the differences of these modeling approaches. Finally the concepts for co-operative work and conflict management in a distributed environment are described: The solution approaches will be distinguished by classifying the supported co-operation according to time. A final scientific summary describes the state-of-the-art in network based co-operation in structural engineering: The role of research directions like knowledge modeling, standard product modeling and versioning in the distributed planning process will be explained.

Using the information collected in a building survey the user should be able to “explore” the building in virtual form, as well as to assess the information contained with regard to a specific planning aspect. The functionality provided by an information module should cover several levels of information provision ranging from ‘simple retrieval’ of relevant information to the analysis and assessment of stored information with regard to particular question sets. Through the provision of basic functionality at an elementary level and the ability to extend this using plug-ins, the system concept of an open extendable system is upheld. Using this modular approach, different levels of information provision can be provided as required during the planning process.

Such specialist systems must take into account currently available technology, such as networked working patterns, object-orientation, building and product models as well as the working method of the planner. The paper describes a plausibility instrument for the formulation of colour scheme proposals for building interiors and elevations. With the help of intuitively usable light simulations, colour, material and spatial concepts can be assessed realistically. The software prototype “Coloured Architecture” is conceived as a professional extension to conventional design tools for the modelling of buildings. As such it can be used by the architect in the earliest design phases of the planning process as well as for colour implementation on location.

This paper describes the theory and approach behind the software realisation of a tool which helps in finding the affine self-weight geometry of gridshell structures. The software tool DOMEdesign supports the formal design process of lattice and grid shell structures based upon the laws of physics. The computer-aided simulation of suspension models is used to derive structurally favourable forms for domes and arches subject to compression load, based upon the input of simple architectonic parameters. Irregular plans, three-dimensional topography, a choice different kinds of shell lattice structures and the desired height of the dome are examples of design parameters which can be used to modify the architectural design. The provision of data export formats for structural dimensioning and visualisation software enables engineers and planners to use the data in future planning and to communicate the design to the client.

There are approximately 125,000 cranes in operation today in the construction industry, responsible for major portion of erection activities. Unfortunately, many accidents occur every year in the U.S. and other countries related to the operation of cranes in construction sites. For example on November 28, 1989 a tower crane collapse during the construction of a building in San Francisco killing four construction workers, one civilian and injuring 28. According to the statistics from Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA), there were 137 crane-related fatalities from 1992 to 2001 in the US. A well-known internet website that keeps track of crane-related accidents (craneaccidents.com), reports 516 accidents and 277 fatalities from 2000 to 2002. These statistics show that even though many measures have been taken to decrease the number of crane-related accidents (Braam, 2002), the number of crane related accidents is still very large. It is important to recognize that each construction related fatality is not only a great human loss but also increases the costs of insurance, lawsuits, and the construction budget due to delay of a project (Paulson 1992)...

The aim of the research is to provide an automatic simulation platform for the complicated circulation. A physically based model for slim member for beams and columns and a frame of multi-physical simulation are provided to implement the system. The physically based model contains material model, structural mechanics model, material mechanics model, as well as geometry model for the compositive simulation. The multi-physical simulation is built on the model and has the capacity to carry out a simulation combining structural, fire (thermal, CFD) and material degradation simulation. The structural and fire simulation rely on two sophisticated software respectively, ANSYS (an FEA software) and FDS (with a core of CFD). Researchers of the paper develop system by themselves to combine the two existing ones. The system has the capability to calculate the wood char to find out the loss of cross-section and to detect the collapse caused in different ways. The paper gives a sample of Chinese traditional house to show how this simulation system works.

N2 - This dissertation presents the development, verification, implementation and efficiency of numerical models for masonry using continuum mechanics and discontinuum mechanics. For macro modelling three-dimensional elasto-plastic continuum models for regular and irregular, single- and multi-leaf masonry types is developed. The constitutive model is based on the multisurface plasticity theory and includes anisotropic elastic and inelastic behaviour, depending on the orientation of the masonry joints. The yield domain, its hardening law and softening law are defined according to experimental results. On this basis, it is possible to simulate masonry-specific failure and damage mechanisms. For consistent numeric implementation, modern elasto-plastic algorithms were used, including the Return Mapping procedure for local iteration at the integration point level, as well as consistent tangent operators and the Newton-Raphson method. The models were implemented into the implicit Finite-Element code ANSYS. For the detailed micro modelling strategy, a new computational model consist of material models for mortar, stone and bond is developed. For the simplified micro modelling strategy, the explicit distinct element method is used to describe the masonry assembly as a discontinuum. The verification analyses show good concordance between experimental and numerical results for different masonry types.

Bagging is used to improve the prediction accuracy of these two algorithms, and results are compared with the ones obtained earlier by the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm. From the conducted experiments, both the bagged regression tree and bagged model tree produce better results than not only their corresponding regression tree and model tree alone, but also the KNN with optimal value of k equal to 7. In addition, the bagged model tree yields the lowest prediction errors and a highest correlation coefficient of 0.81. It is demonstrated that it is feasible to use the bagged model tree for engineering applications in prediction problems such as estimating the remaining service life of bridge decks.

Accurate as-built data will be of great usage to construction management as well as to designers and engineers. Given that most of the planned data are already digitally available, as-built data remains on paper forms. Information technology developments are opening new ways to digitize construction field data in order to develop intelligent tools for construction management allowing design engineers to update as-planned data. 3D Laser scanning, digital close-range photogrammetry and mobile computing are among the promising data collection technologies, which are auspicious to create new opportunities to develop advanced construction management and engineering tools.

A1 - Olivier, A. H. T1 - Notes on structural analysis in a distributed collaboratory N2 - The worldwide growth of communication networks and associated technologies provide the basic infrastructure for new ways of executing the engineering process. Collaboration amongst team members seperated in time and location is of particular importance. Two broad themes can be recognized in research pertaining to distributed collaboration. One theme focusses on the technical and technological aspects of distributed work, while the other emphasises human aspects thereof. The case of finite element structural analysis in a distributed collaboratory is examined in this paper. An approach is taken which has its roots in human aspects of the structural analysis task. Based on experience of how structural engineers currently approach and execute this task while utilising standard software designed for use on local workstations only, criteria are stated for a software architechture that could support collaborative structural analysis. Aspects of a pilot application and the results of qualitative performance measurements are discussed.

Before planning can begin, buildings must be surveyed in whole or in part with the surveying of geometric data playing a dominant role. The geometric survey is typically undertaken using geodetic or photogrammetric measuring techniques and equipment that have been adapted for use in building surveying. Accordingly appropriate technical knowledge is required in order to be able to operate them as well as a considerable financial investment. Such equipment and surveying methods are usually adaptations from other disciplines. The paper discusses and presents approaches to developing “new” equipment for building surveying, devised with the needs of building surveying in mind – redesigns or new designs for surveying tools. The designs are the result of an inter-disciplinary project between the Faculty of Architecture and the Faculty of Product Design at the Bauhaus Universität Weimar.

Well-integrated software tools exist for the planning and construction phases. Data integrity exists throughout the planning and construction phases, but problems occur at the transition to the use-phase. At this interface, the complete data set of planning and execution gets lost. Another software deficiency is that current software solutions don’t handle construction work and maintenance work equally. This is why a new software generation is demanded, which continuously covers the entire workflow process from the planning phase to the demolition of a building. New data concepts have to be developed, which allow bringing work items for construction together with work items for real estate use.

A1 - Rueppel, Uwe A1 - Theiss, Mirko T1 - Network-Based Fire Engineering Supported by Agents N2 - Building design in Civil Engineering is characterized by the cooperation of experts in multiple disciplines. Close cooperation of engineers in different fields is the basis of high product quality, short development periods and a minimum of investment costs. For each building the engineers have to create a new fire engineering model. The consistent realization of the fire engineering model in all details has high demands on communication, collaboration and building models. Thereby, to preserve the related design models consistent to each other and compatible with the rules of fire engineering is a complex task. In addition, regulations and guidelines vary according to the building location, so the knowledge base must be integrated dynamically into the planning process. This contribution covers the integration of engineers and design models into a cooperation network on the basis of mobile agents. The distributed models of architectural design, structural planning and fire engineering are supported. These models are implemented as XML-based models which can be accessed by mobile agents for information retrieval and for processing tasks. Agents are provided to all planners, they are enabled to check up the distributed design models with the knowledge base of the fire protection regulations,. With the use of such an agent each planner is supported to check up his planning for accordance with the fire protection requirements. The fire-engineering-agent analyzes the design and detects inconsistencies by processing fire protection requirements and design model facts in a rule-based expert system. The possibility to check the planning information at an early state in the sense of compatibility to the fire protection regulations enables a comprehensive diagnosis of the design and the reduction of planning errors.

Seither werden immer wieder Bauschäden beschrieben, deren Ursache in der Reaktion von Zuschlägen, die „reaktive“ Kieselsäure enthalten, mit der Porenlösung des Betons zu sehen ist. Diese Reaktion wird als Alkali-Kieselsäure Reaktion (AKR) bezeichnet. Seit der ersten Veröffentlichung von Stanton über die „alkali-aggregate reaction“ an opalhaltigen Zuschlägen sind hunderte von Forschungsarbeiten zu diesem Thema durchgeführt und deren Ergebnisse veröffentlicht worden. Trotz eingehender Forschung seit mehr als 8o Jahren ist weder der Mechanismus der AKR vollständig geklärt noch eine eindeutige Voraussage über die Gefährdung von Bauwerken oder Bauteilen mit potentiell AKR-empfindlichen Zuschlägen möglich. Das liegt vor allen Dingen daran, das es sich bei der AKR um eine Reaktion handelt, die aus einer komplexen Abfolge chemischer und physikalischer Prozesse besteht, die in ihrer Gesamtheit zu einer Schädigung von Beton bzw. Betonbauteilen und Bauwerken führen können. Eine geschlossene Beschreibung und Behandlung dieser Reaktion ist nicht möglich, solange keine befriedigende Kenntnis über den Ablauf der einzelnen Schritte vorliegt. Dazu bedarf es grundsätzlicher Untersuchungen der einzelnen chemischen und physikalischen Reaktionsschritte sowie einer möglichst quantitativen Bewertung der verschiedenen Einflussfaktoren. Grundsätzlich gibt es weltweit eine ganze Reihe von Richtlinien und Normen , die dazu verhelfen sollen, Schädigungen an Bauwerken durch AKR zu verhindern. In Deutschland ist das momentan gültige Regelwerk die sogenannte Alkali-Richtlinie des deutschen Ausschusses für Stahlbeton (DAfStb). Sie dient zur Beurteilung von Zuschlag nach DIN 4226 [6, 7, 8] mit alkaliempfindlichen Bestandteilen. Dabei bezieht sich der Teil 2 der Richtlinie auf Zuschläge mit Opalsandstein, Kieselkreide und Flint aus bestimmten Gewinnungsgebieten. Hier wird eine reine Zuschlagprüfung gefordert. Teil 3 der Richtlinie bezieht sich auf präkambrische Grauwacken und andere alkaliempfindliche Gesteine. Gefordert werden hier Prüfungen der Zuschläge selbst sowie Prüfung an Betonbalken und 30er Würfeln in der Nebelkammer. Für die meisten in der Richtlinie genannten Zuschläge bilden die Prüfungen und Vorschriften eine ausreichende Sicherheit, um eine AKR zu vermeiden. Dennoch treten immer wieder Schäden mit Zuschlägen auf, die nach der Alkali-Richtlinie als unempfindlich eingestuft werden müssten. Dabei handelt es sich in der Regel um Schadensfälle, die erst nach mehreren Jahren mit spät reagierenden AKR-empfindlichen Zuschlägen auftreten. Zu diesen Zuschlägen, die gegebenenfalls speziell im Nebelkammertest innerhalb von neun Monaten keine signifikante Dehnung (<0,6mm/m) aufweisen, gehören Stressquarze, Kieselkalk, Granit, Porphyr, Kieselschiefer und Grauwacke. Die vorliegende Arbeit dient speziell der Beurteilung und Einordnung von unterschiedlichen kristallinen Quarzmodifikationen sowie der Ermittlung geeigneter Untersuchungsmethoden für die Beurteilung der AKR-Empfindlichkeit von Quarz. N2 - A lot of concrete deterioration due to ASR during the last years show, that it was not possible to estimate truly the al-kali-reactivity of aggregate. Also a true forecast, if a special concrete mixture or a building is insensible to ASR is not possible. The reason is, that there are damages especially with slow-late aggregates (greywacke, quartzite, rhyolite, stressed quartz…), although they were estimated as innocuous using the valid test methods. For getting more and true information about the ASR sensitivity of slow-late aggregates, interrelations between micro-structural properties and solubility were investigated. In special cases where is a good correlation between microstructure and solubility. But there are a lot of other influences. So only for a part of the investigated aggregates it is possible to get a good correla-tion. Thin section investigations, using light microscopy show, that the microstructure allows a prognosis how and where cracking will occur.

Modern indentation machines have the capability to continuously monitor load and displacement to high precision and accuracy. In recent years, research interests have focussed on methods to extract material properties from indentation load-displacement curves. Analytical methods to interpret the indentation load-displacement curves are difficult to formulate due to material and geometric nonlinearities as well as complex contact interactions. In the present study, an artificial neural network model was constructed for interpretation of indentation load-displacement curves. Large strain-large deformation finite element analyses were first carried out to simulate indentation experiments. The data from finite element analyses were then used to train the artificial neural network model. The artificial neural network model was able to accurately determine the material properties when presented with load-displacement curves which were not used in the training process. The proposed artificial neural network model is robust and directly relates the characteristics of the indentation loaddisplacement curve to the elasto-plastic material properties.

This helps with reasoning and communicates ideas to other members of the team. Sketches are gradually worked up into more formal drawings which are then passed to the other stages of the design process. There are however some problems with basing early ideas on sketching. For example, due to their ad-hoc nature, sketches tend only to be diagrammatic representations and so designers cannot be sure that their ideas are feasible and what is being proposed meets the constraints described in the client brief. This can result in designers wasting time working up ideas which prove to be unsuitable. Also the process of constraint checking is complex and time consuming and so designers tend limit their search of possible options and instead choose satisfying rather than good solutions. This paper describes the INTEGRA project which examines the role of sketching in early conceptual design and how this can be linked to other aspects of the process and particularly automated constraint checking using an IT based approach. The focus for the work is the design of framed buildings. A multi-disciplinary approach has been adopted and the work has been undertaken in close collaboration with practising designers and clients.

Im Gegensatz zu Biegeträgern haben diese Effekte auch Einfluss auf den Grenzzustand der Tragfähigkeit und sind unmittelbar Gegenstand von Sicherheitsaspekten. Der Eurocode 5 beachtet dies überhaupt nicht, während in DIN 1052 (2004:08) Hinweise zur Bemessung gegeben sind. Da der Baustoff Holz infolge seines Wuchscharakters stark streuende Materialparameter aufweist, ist es kaum möglich, Experimente in ausreichendem Umfang durchzuführen. Gegen eine solche experimentelle Untersuchung sprechen auch die zu erwartenden hohen Kosten sowie die langandauernden Versuche unter Klimabeanspruchung. Aus diesem Grund wird auf virtuelle Versuche mit Hilfe des Computerprogramms ISOBEAM zurückgegriffen. Dazu sind allerdings abgesicherte Materialmodelle wichtig, die hier an Experimenten mit Klein- und Kleinstproben sowie mit Versuchkörpern baupraktisch relevanter Abmessungen angepasst wurden. Mit diesem verifizierten Modell war es möglich, gezielt Parameterstudien durchzuführen. Der Einfluss der Einbauholzfeuchte auf das hygrothermische Langzeittragverhalten wurde genauso untersucht wie der der Nutzungsklasse und der Querschnittsabmessungen. Die Ergebnisse der virtuellen Versuche dienten zum einen der Überprüfung der Vorgehensweise nach DIN 1052 (2004:08) und zum anderen zur Anpassung neuer Vorschläge zur Bemessung. Es wurde Wert darauf gelegt, dass sich die Vorschläge neuer Bemessungskonzepte an die bestehenden normativen Bemessungsregeln anlehnen. Zum einen wurde das Bemessungsverfahren nach Theorie II.

Alternativ ist es möglich, den Modifikationsbeiwert neu an die virtuellen Versuchsergebnisse anzupassen. Die Einbauholzfeuchte wurde ebenfalls über einen zusätzlichen Modifikationsfaktor berücksichtigt. N2 - The long-term load-bearing performance of wooden columns is decisively influenced by the amount of permanent acting load and the surrounding climate. Unlike flexural beams these effects influence the ultimate limit state and they are direct subject of safety aspects. While DIN 1052 (2004:08) provides some hints for design, Eurocode 5 does not take this fact into account. As wood as building material shows highly varying material parameters resulting from growth characteristics it is almost impossible to make a sufficient number of experiments. Furthermore, high costs and long-term experiments regarding action of climate speak against such experimental investigations. Therefore, virtual experiments were made using the computer program ISOBEAM. Tried and proven material models are important for this purpose. They were adapted to experiments with small and smallest specimens and to those of dimensions of practical use. This verified model makes it possible to perform selective parameter studies. The influence of initial moisture content in wood on the long-term load-bearing capacity was investigated as well as the influence of service classes and cross-section dimensions. The results of these virtual experiments were used to evaluate the procedure of German Code DIN 1052 (2004:08) on the one hand and to adapt new proposals for design on the other. Importance was placed on the proposals of new design concepts according to existing design rules of code. On the one side the design rule according to 2nd order theory was supplemented by another eccentricity take into account creep effects. On the other side the coefficient of model column method was modified. Alternatively it is possible to adapt the modification coefficient to the results of virtual experiments. The initial moisture content in wood was also taken into consideration by an additional modifying factor.

Knowledge management systems are strategically valuable for both ensuring consistency and continuous improvement of various aspects such as quality delivery, productivity and competitiveness. The small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the construction industry are mostly operating under tighter timeframes, narrower profit margins and more constrained resources. Hence the recently commenced SMILE-SMC (Strategic Management with Information Leveraged Excellece for Small and Medium Contractors) project aims to support the information and knowledge management needs of the small and medium contractors in Hong Kong. This paper presents some snapshots on the SMILE-SMC project, and its conceptualized deliverables with some highlights of recent developments.

Even though there is software available to support design processes in distributed environments, most applications only support simple document based exchange of information. In this paper a knowledge based system is presented to support cooperative, comprehensive design processes in distributed environments. The presented research project is financially supported by the German Research Community (DFG – Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft).

For design firms to stay in business in this very competitive market, they need to manage their resources in a way that improves productivity and cost effectiveness. This task, however, is not simple and requires thorough analysis of process-level operations, resource use, and productivity. Typically, these operational aspects are the responsibility of the design office manager who assigns available resources to the different design projects to save time and lower design expenses. It is noted that limited studies have been carried out in the literature to model overall organizational operations and behavioral aspects, particularly in firms specialized in the design of building projects. In an effort to simplify the modeling process, a simplified modeling and simulation tool is used in this research. A simulation model representing an actual design office was developed assuming that the office performs designs for small, medium, and large size building projects. The developed model was used to simulate several alternatives and examine various resource assignment strategies. The simulation was conducted over ten years and the resulting productivity and income was measured.

The software model allows users easy access to the analysis core program and the analysis results by using a web-browser or other application programs. In addition, new and legacy codes can be incorporated as distributed services and be integrated with the software framework from disparate sites. A distributed project management system, taking advantages of Internet and database technologies, is implemented to store and manage model information and simulation results. Nonlinear dynamic analysis and simulations of a bridge structure is performed to illustrate the facilities of the Internet-enabled software model.

These demands require efficient improvements of the value-added chain, which can be realized mainly with the usage of innovative information- and communication-technologies. To support the collaboration of all participants involved in a certain building project the Workflow-Management-System “BauKom-Online” has been developed. In the focus of the system is to support the coordination of the participants and their information exchange. Such a software-method is well suited to ensure a high quality planning process. The modelling of business-processes enables a better self-comprehension of the participants work and helps to enhance the project performance. The system architecture of BauKom-Online contains two basic components: the processmodelling tool and the workflow-engine. The process-model contains of activities and states of the planning and construction processes and their relations. These connected processes compose the workflow. Such a process-model for engineering purposes has to satisfy several needs, e.g., the consideration of planning and building alternatives, dynamic changes of the model during execution of the project and the linkage to further technical objects like costs, building structure, specifications and documentmanagement. Furthermore, the scheduling of the project can be done within the process-model and can be visualized as a Gantt-diagram. ...
