In-situ Cast Concrete Building Important Aspects of Industrialised Construction
نویسنده
چکیده
In the ongoing research programme at Chalmers University of Technology, principles and methods for industrialised building with in-situ cast concrete are investigated. The goal is to increase the understanding of, and to develop methods and systems for, industrial building/construction. Improvement of in-situ concrete construction is necessary; partly in order to meet challenges from other materials. The article deals with questions of how the development should proceed and which research disciplines are needed as support. Opportunities for improvement are identified and a framework for the continuing work has been formulated.

Earthen architecture, an alternative to construction industry to manage the drought crisis in Iran: Comparison between water usage in a building with three type of loading system: steel, concrete, and earth
Abstract: Iran faces water shortage crisis whilst construction industry consumes huge amount of water. There are not precise data about construction industry water consumption. Accordingly, lack of comparison as well as prioritization between prevalent structural systems and alternatives which probably use less water create problems in planning for less consumption. There are two questions whi...
