Recent advancements in large-scale additive manufacturing have extended its application in the building industry, delivering notable gains in productivity, efficiency, environmental sustainability, and safety compared with traditional construction methods. ...

Rapid urbanization, alongside escalating resource depletion and ecological degradation, underscores the urgent need for innovative paradigms in urban development. In response, sustainable smart cities are increasingly leveraging advanced technological fram ...

This article investigates the inuence of digital technologies on youth participation in urban governance within the Global South, with a specic focus on Saint-Louis, Senegal. Rapid urbanization in developing countries has intensied the need for inclusiv ...

Predicting the availability and quantities of reusable components and recyclable materials is one of the challenges of a wider implementation of circular economy practices in construction. A detailed knowledge of the composition of past and current buildin ...

The dynamic landscape of sustainable smart cities is witnessing a signi ficant transformation due to the integration of emerging computational technologies and innovative models. These advancements are reshaping data -driven planning strategies, practices, ...

In today's era of rapid urbanization, smart cities are emerging as a beacon of efficiency and sustainability. At the heart of this evolution is the integration of Machine Learning (ML), which can transform vast streams of data into informed decisions. This ...

Because of established demolition routines and low construction-material production costs that neglect negative externalities, discarded concrete today is crushed and landfilled or downcycled as infill material or recycled aggregates, wasting its embodied ...

The construction industry is a significant contributor to resource consumption and waste generation. To address this issue, component reuse has been proposed as a way to prevent valuable building elements from being discarded and avoid producing new ones. ...

In this thesis we address various factors that contribute both theoretically and practically to mitigating supply demand mismatches. The thesis is composed of three chapters, where each chapter is an independent scientific paper. In the first paper, we dev ...

Current procedures for the rapid inspection of buildings and infrastructure are subjective, time-consuming, and cumbersome to document, necessitating new technologies to automate the process and eliminate these shortcomings. Fortunately, recent development ...

Although inevitable, the process of transforming urban areas into sustainable living environments presents many challenges. The decentralization of the energy system, the interconnection of multiple energy carriers, and the need to account for conflicting ...

Food consumption is among the activities with the most significant environmental impacts, and furthermore contributes to rising health costs. We explored the factors that foster or hinder healthy and sustainable eating in Switzerland. Based on an online ho ...

Today, concrete is the most widely used construction material worldwide. Strong, versatile, durable, and vector of economic development, this exceptional material is also the principal cause of greenhouse-gas emissions, material depletion and waste generat ...

Extractive resources are indisputably a necessary component of international sustainable development. Despite current advancements in the circular economy, world production needs for raw materials are ever increasing, and still a long way remains for it to ...

The city of Lausanne is built on fairly steep slopes, with the consequence that some buildings are leaning against what could be described as cliffs and, therefore, have only one glazed facade. The Rue Saint Martin office building has been built during the ...

Professionals involved in building construction and monitoring increasingly implement new practices made available by Building Information Modelling (BIM), Virtual Reality (VR) and the Internet of Things (IoT). In spite of numerous efforts, most methods in ...

Our world is becoming more and more urban. Already, about 50% of the population lives in cities posing new challenges for sustainable development. What does sustainability mean in the context of living in a city? This book provides guidelines for sustainab ...

Textile reinforced concrete (TRC) is a cementitious‐based material where reinforcement consists of high‐strength noncorrosive textile fabrics. Due to the use of a noncorrosive reinforcement, cover requirements can be limited to minimum static values and th ...

This study investigates the mechanism by which a novel starch-based admixture named Temperature Rise Inhibitor (TRI) modifying cement hydration and limiting heat evolution. This admixture is designed to avoid thermal cracking of concrete. Depending on the ...

This paper presents a post-occupancy daylighting study within 17 residences in Singapore consisting of 35 participants. Each residence was visited, and a calibrated daylighting model was constructed and validated based upon 100's of individual illuminance ...
