This research studies the lateral buckling behavior in truss and lateral buckling coefficient of truss. Lateral buckling analysis of truss is performed by simulating the structural model with both end supports being pinned and roller-supports. The analysis is indirectly conducted using Elastic Theory to evaluate the length of lateral buckling by calculating the determinant of the Matrix [K]. Results from the analysis are marginally different from those obtained from finite element program and are considerably less than those obtained from Eurocode standard. This can be concluded that using elastic theory to evaluate lateral buckling coefficient of truss member will result in more economical section.

Shell structures are recognized for their exceptional performance in withstanding compression forces, often utilized as roof components. However, Southeast Asia experiences significant annual losses due to floods, with inadequate structural mitigation despite high population concentrations in seismic risk areas. Previous research explored thin shell structures as elevated foundations to mitigate flood effects on buildings. Unfortunately, the proposed shell design exceeded the material's strength limit of 40N/mm2, limiting its feasibility. To address this, our study proposes a modified thin shell with a 600mm thickness. Finite Element analysis using LUSAS software evaluated the new design's structural behavior under dynamic loads from earthquakes and flood-induced waves. Results demonstrate a substantial reduction of up to 99% in equivalent stress compared to the previous model [Model P]. The revised model [Model C] proves feasible in withstanding intense building loads, ensuring maximum stress remains below the concrete material's strength limit. Implementation of these findings offers valuable structural mitigation, reducing flood impacts and enhancing both structural resilience and human safety.

Seismic retrofit of a reinforced concrete (RC) building using a buckling-restrained brace is an innovative method to improve the seismic performance of the existing RC buildings to resist damage from the future earthquake. This research proposes a simple method to retrofit RC buildings with buckling-restrained braces (BRBs). A 4-story school reinforced concrete building in Thailand is selected as a target building. The analysis results of the existing RC building indicate that the structure cannot withstand the seismic force under the newest code, which was published in 2021. There were failures at the columns of the 1st–3rd floors, in which lateral displacements exceeded the current seismic design standard. After retrofitting the target building by the proposed method with BRBs, it was found that the lateral displacements are reduced and the target RC building can withstand the seismic demand of the newest code. Therefore, the retrofitted building can be resisted future earthquakes. This shows the effectiveness of the introduced retrofit method.

Linking engineering approach and local wisdom in water sensitive urban design as an adaptation strategy to climate change
(2020-03-03)

The impacts of climate change on cities have been clearly identified. Climate change threats the cities on urban infrastructure, urban life and well-being, urban environment and entire urban system. One of the most obvious impacts of climate change on urban system is the presence of more vulnerability of cities on urban floods due to global sea rise. This is particularly valid for coastal cities. While mitigation strategies could not be comprehensively completed in short time, the adaptation strategies could, therefore, be undertaken to complement the overall strategies to minimize the impacts. An engineering approach can be done at micro-level but should not be the only solution among many possible ways out. Urban planning and design, on the other hand, could be implemented at macro-level. Water sensitive urban design aims at minimizing the negative impacts of water-associated delinquencies through city planning and design. This study attempts to juxtapose the possible engineering approaches to cope with the impacts of climate change in the city at individual micro-level buildings as a way of the urban citizens to adapt to climate change impacts. The engineering solutions proposed in this study are discovered from various studies around the world and adjusted to local conditions taking into account locally available technologies for proper suitability and the solutions are therefore technologically possible, locally adaptable and environmentally friendly. The local wisdom on climate change adaptation itself has been observed in Southeast Asian countries.

Advanced structural design for the construction of pressure- and temperature-resistant buildings
(2023-01-01)

Explosive loads from internal and external blasts occurring simultaneously and continuously cause severe structural damage and thermal extremity. Thus, the design of explosion-resistant structures differs vastly from that of typical buildings. For instance, they must be able to withstand dead and live loads, blasts, and extreme pressure and temperature loads. The present research aimed to develop an advanced structural design for explosion-resistant buildings and examine their resistance to three types of explosive loads causing both internal and external damage: the pressure of 300 bar, the temperature of 300 °C, and the pressure of 300 bar combined with the temperature of 300 °C. To achieve the research objective, explosions were simulated before their effects on the primary structural reinforcements, i.e. slabs, beams, and columns, of the five- and two-story buildings under investigation were analyzed in terms of explosion-related parameters using the finite element method (FEM). It was found that the loads from pressure combined with temperature were more destructive to the five-story building than to the two-story building. In addition, the former was more severely affected by the reaction force and reaction moment caused by the simulated explosions than the latter. Recommendations are made regarding advanced structural design for the construction of explosion-resistant buildings.

This study proposed the comparative analysis of city planning and land use change by using remote sensing and GIS in Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok had been developed and faced many land use problems. If the problems were not controlled, it will cause more problems in the future. Therefore, this study suggested the solution to solve occurring land use problems in Bangkok. Which, remote sensing was used to do the land survey and automatically map urban land cover from Landsat time-series satellite imagery. Then, the change of urban area and Bangkok Comprehensive Plan were compared by GIS. And, the results showed that urban area in Bangkok increased 403.99 km2 over the past 21 years. While rural and agricultural zone in Bangkok Comprehensive Plan decreased due to residential area expansion. So, Area Division System and the district plan from urban planning system of Japan can solve the problems by developing the city and controlling urban areas expansion.

Optimization means the mathematical determination of the optimal decisions out of diverse alternatives. Based on the preceding Finite Element Analysis (FEA), a proposed shell produced a maximum stress that exceeded the design value. To make the design feasible, an optimization was done to minimize the maximum stress by using the gradient method. The performance of the structure can be optimized to fulfil the design requirements with the optimum value of displacement to achieve the objective function. The results show that the optimum displacement is 8.8mm, which reduced the maximum stress by 99.94% from the initial level. Thus, optimization methods are important for new applications of shell structures to find their best parameters in the design stage.

Structural design for pressure-and temperature-resistant buildings
(2019-01-01)

Loads from explosions differ from seismic and wind loads due to their greater severity, continuity, rapidity, and thermal extremity. That is, explosions cause massive structural damage by exposing surrounding structures to extremely high pressure and temperature. Thus, structures at risk of explosive damage must be stronger than typical buildings in withstanding both ordinary loads and the additional pressure and temperature loads caused. Explosion-resistant structures are required in the petrochemical industry, explosive armories, power stations, and gas storage facilities, among others. This study aims to examine the structural performance of a building subject to three types of loads: (1) the pressure of 300 bars, (2) the temperature of 300 °C, and (3) the pressure of 300 bars combined with the temperature of 300 °C. The research analyzes three primary reinforced structures, namely columns, beams, and slabs, in terms of the parameters resulting from each scenario to determine a set of criteria for designing the structural components of explosion-resistant buildings.

Loads from explosions can be classified as internal blast load and external blast load and these loads have great severity, continuity and rapidity. That is, explosions cause massive structural damage by exposing surrounding structures to extremely high pressure and temperature. Thus, structures at risk of explosive damage must be stronger than typical buildings in withstanding both ordinary loads and the additional pressure and temperature loads caused. Explosion-resistant structures are required in the petrochemical industry, explosive armories, power stations, and gas storage facilities, among others. This study aims to examine and compare the structural performance of two building of different heights, which are 5-floor and 2-floor, subject to three types of loads: (1) the pressure of 300 bars, (2) the temperature of 300 °C, and (3) the pressure of 300 bars combined with the temperature of 300 °C. The research analyzes three primary reinforced structures, namely columns, beams, and slabs, in terms of the parameters resulting from each scenario to determine a set of criteria for designing the structural components of the buildings to resist the external blasts.

Using a novel methodology that integrates incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) and unmanned aerial vehicle positioning (POS) analysis, this study aims to assess the seismic risk of brick structures in rural China. This method can collect a lot of data and accurately anticipate seismic damage by combining UAV oblique photography with IDA analysis. Because rural China has many masonry structures, the project will design unique seismic risk mitigation strategies. High-resolution cameras on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles capture realistic photographs of rural brick buildings. The collected data is carefully examined to reveal architectural and structural elements. The project uses dynamic post-processing software from the CHC Geomatics Office to improve UAV-reference station position accuracy. This program analyzes UAV POS data disparities. The findings allow rural Chinese brick buildings to be assessed for seismic sensitivity during unexpected ground shaking occurrences. UAV tilt-photography reduces manpower and expenditures, improving inquiry efficiency. This combination improves seismic risk response. The IDA and UAV POS analysis are essential for earthquake preparedness and risk mitigation. This data-driven method informs lawmakers, urban planners, and disaster management authorities worldwide, improving earthquake engineering and catastrophe resilience programs. This work improves seismic threat assessment and masonry structure fortification, making earthquake-prone buildings safer. Thus, rural communities benefit from it.
