Development and practical emerging construction technologies has been studied as one of key solution for overcoming these barriers. Many literatures indicated that effective performance evaluation methodologies are demanding for efficient applications of new technologies. This paper presents a performance evaluation methodology using construction simulation technique and introduces studies of two cases where the steel staircase system, as an new technologies was applied and where the conventional method of staircase concrete works. Productivity was measured and calculated by site observation and construction simulations. This results show the quantified influence of new technology to site personnels and assist them to make various decisions for using or not using the technology depending on their own situations.

Almost prefounded columns for top-down construction certainly have construction tolerances in plan and plumbness. Therefore, it is very difficult to connect prefabricated beams to prefounded columns at each floor level after excavation by usual top-down connection method and this usual connection method leads to long construction time, increasing cost and decreasing quality. This paper presents a new method for connecting prefabricated beam to prefounded column with GROUT-JACKET CONNECTION SYSTEM consisting of sleeve, bearing-shear bands and grout. Details and illustrations of the connections and applications by GROUT-JACKET CONNECTION SYSTEM for the top-down construction are also included in this paper.

With excellent mechanical properties and durability of concrete and construction materials so far because, as has been the most widely used. However, existing in the electrical conductivity of the concrete material is given the characteristics of the concrete can not expand a lot of applications. For example, the cathode material of a parameter, ground resistance materials, electromagnetic shielding materials, sense of self-diagnostic materials, and anti-static materials are available. Currently, research on the electromagnetic shielding and absorbing mortar is incomplete. And Japan, the United States is part of the research in research institutions. Therefore, this research rate in the mouth in a different mix of conductive graphite particle the physical properties of cement mortar about the basic performance characteristics of the robbery was to figure out.

In this letter, we designed and fabricated the paper-based ring-type frequency selective surface(FSSs) using inkjet printing method for practicable building wall applications to enhancement of the indoor communication environment, including low cost and ease of fabrication. Designed FSS has the band-stop characteristics at X-band, stable angle of incidence and wide bandwidth. Comparisons between measured and simulated results showed the good agreements.

TNowadays, the global warming is the most serious problem in the world and the cement industry is one of the factors which are responsible for it. Therefore, the development of new binders with enhanced environment and durability performance is needed. In this regard, the geopolymer technology is one of the breakthrough developments as an alternative to the portland cement. This paper shows some points of view on the development of geopolymers by reviewing previous researches including historical background, constituents of geopolymers, process of geopolymerization and several applications of geopolymer. Hence, the author proposes two research trends which are finding the best combination between the source materials and alkali liquid then, evaluating the corrosion for the metal bars.

Developed from Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB), DMB+ changes the application focus fundamentally. The plus symbol "+" indicates that DMB+ is no longer for digital radio/videos, instead it works as a general data transmission technique. The merits of wireless transmission, broad coverage, high quality, information security and low building/maintenance cost make DMB+ suitable for a wide range of applications with numerous terminals and users, such as public information release, alarm and administration etc. The concept of DMB+ base station enables DMB+ to be used in building independent networks and for remote control and management, as well as for Industry 4.0. DMB+ will access into a new field that till now has been dominated by communication techniques, will open a huge commercial opportunity.

As confining materials for concrete, steel and fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have important applications in both the seismic retrofit of existing reinforced concrete columns and in the new construction of composite structures. We present a comprehensive review of the axial stress-strain behaviour of the FRP-confined concrete column. Next, the mechanical performance of the hybrid FRP-confined concrete-steel composite columns are comprehensively reviewed. Furthermore, the results of FRP-confined concrete column experiments and FRP-confined circular concrete-filled steel tube experiments are presented to study the interaction relationship between various material sections. Finally, the combinations of material sections are discussed. Based on these observations, recommendations regarding future research directions for composite columns are also outlined.

This paper presents database technique for an computer-integrated structural design system of buildings. Network database designed to support all the processes of structural design, such as, planning, modelling, analysis, member design and redesign processes etc. stores all information from user input and system results effectively and so provides centeral communication area between applications. The user interface wi th interactive and batch modes plays roles of building modeler including conventional pre-processor and post-processor. The concepts of 'Planar Surface Modeling' and 'Geometry Zoning' are defined for easy construction of building model. The concept presented in this paper will save the time and memory required for model generation and contribute to data consistency, thus leave a designer more time actually performing the analyses and interpreting the results. The formulation of automating the process of bulilding model ins and structural analysis is the key to study.

The diagrid structural system for constructing tall buildings is a recent invention. Debuting in 2004 with the construction of the Swiss Re Tower in London, this aesthetically driven structural system has centered the perfecting of its technology on the development of the nodes that form its innovative deviation from standard steel tall framing methods. The paper examines variations in node design, understanding the linked dependence the modularity and the choice to expose the steel in the building, as well as on advances in digital modelling that allow an increasingly seamless line of communication from the engineering design through to the actual fabrication of the nodes. This advanced design and fabrication technology will be seen to have resulted in the expanded use of the technical term "node" to inform the design and construction of a range of other applications in the structuring of tall buildings, including the use of steel castings.

Scratch-based programming has come to be known as an effective programming tool because of its graphic instruction modules, which are designed to be assembled like the famous LEGO building blocks. These building block-like structures allow users to more easily program applications without using other more difficult programming languages such as C or Java, which are text-based. Therefore, it poses a good opportunity for application in educational settings, especially in primary schools. This paper presents an effective approach to developing an educational robot for use in elementary schools. Furthermore, we present the method for scratch programming based on the external modules need for the implementation of robot motion. Lastly, we design a systematic curriculum, titled "Play with a Robot," and propose guidelines to using the educational programming language Scratch.
