| In the last years different prediction models for indoor environments were developed for the frequency range between 500 MHz and 5 GHz. Each of these models has its own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper four of the most popular models are compared to one another and to measurements in different buildings. The comparison is limited to the prediction of the received power because two ...

Cool roofs represent an acknowledged passive cooling technique to reduce building energy consumption for cooling and to mitigate urban heat island effects. This paper concerns the evaluation of the dynamic effect of new cool roof clay tiles on building thermal performance in summer and winter conditions. To this end, these properties have been analyzed on traditional roof brick tiles through an...

Brick structures have been found in the Sambimaya Village, Juntinyuat District, Indramayu Regency. The structure is on several dirt mounds rice field area. One of locations Dingkel Block. Preliminary excavations succeeded uncovering south side wall and southwest corner building. research intended to determine form building its function. method through surveys excavations. Surveys are mainly car...

Brick is one of the most common masonry units as a building material due to its properties. Many attempts have been made to incorporate wastes into the production of bricks, for examples, rubber, limestone dust, wood sawdust, processed waste tea, fly ash, polystyrene and sludge. Recycling such wastes by incorporating them into building materials is a practical solution for pollution problem. Th...

Abstract: The subtraction operation of intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) has been scarcely used for practical applications since it was introduced. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an aggregation operator based on the subtraction operation of IFSs for engineering applications. Then, clay-brick selection is an important decision-making problem for better building construction. To handle the ...
