The purpose of this study is to prepare environmentally friendly and highly sustainable concrete for an ever-increasing demand of concrete in the construction industry. In the study both natural course and fine aggregates were partially replaced by recycled concrete aggregate from construction and demolition wastes. High performance alkali activated concrete was prepared by utilizing pozzolanic industrial wastes as a binder which fully replaced cement powder. High volume of fly ash with 30%, 40% and 50% replacement of slag was used as a main binder. NaOH and Na2Si03 with an alkali modulus of 0.6 were used as an alkali activator solution. The findings of this research revealed that alkali activated recycled aggregate concrete have competitive engineering properties with respect to cement concrete with natural aggregate. The UPV and thermal conductivity test results were found to be 4302 m/s and 1.425 W- m-l-K-1 respectively. The results of this study will pave the way towards the better practice of sustainable concrete construction by replacing the cement and natural aggregate in one concrete mix.

The problem of determining the stress state in a section of bending reinforced concrete beams with an initial and operational cracks has been solved analytically. To this end, a system of two nonlinear algebraic equations has been obtained from the equilibrium conditions of the part of the beam cut along the crack line. From this system, for a beam with an initial crack, the height of the compression zone and the nominal stress at the crack tip are determined, and for an operational crack, the height of the compression zone and the length of the crack are determined. The remaining parameters of the stress state are expressed in terms of these values. There is also determined the value of the external moment above which an increase in the initial length of the crack occurs.

Determining the stress intensity factor (SIF) is based on the assumptions that the longitudinal forces are equal at the crack tip, with and without stress concentration. The size of the stress concentration zone is determined from the condition that the local stress is equal to the nominal stress. On this basis, the formula for determining the SIF is obtained. The paper analyzes the SIF dependence on the crack length and the bending moment.

The method of calculation is valid for beams of arbitrary cross-section, but explicit dependences are given for beams of rectangular cross-section most frequently encountered in production.

The results obtained allow estimating the bearing capacity of beams with a crack, as well as their crack resistance according to the force criterion of fracture mechanics.

The continuous growth of the population also brings about an increase in traffic that traverse our roads. Due to this increase in the volume of traffic, pavements are subjected to more distress which can lead to its failure. Studies have been performed in order to address these issues on material properties. At present time, waste disposal has been a challenge for various industries. And of the wastes that are abundant in our surroundings, plastic is proving to be a major problem because it poses a major threat to the environment. As a possible solution to the growing problem of the disposal of plastic wastes as well as the constant pursuit to improve the properties of materials, recycling and incorporating plastic to construction materials has been explored in various studies. This study aims to assess the effects of Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) as an additive to Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) on the stability, flow and bulk specific gravity of the paving mix. A parametric study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of additive concentration (4%, 7% and 10% by weight of asphalt binder), particle size (2.36 mm, 4.57 mm, and 9.5 mm) and mixing temperature (145° C, 160 ° C, and 175 ° C) on the stability, flow and bulk specific gravity of Plastic Waste Bitumen Binder (PWBB). Results show that adding PET and LDPE as additive increases the stability by 36.82%, improves the flow by 22% and it also increases the bulk specific gravity by 2.36% compared to a traditional bituminous mixture.

The term soil reinforcement is conventional since decades ago for the stabilization of soft ground such as of clay and peat. Numerous research has arisen in the utilization of natural fibres as the reinforcement materials. Cost reduction, increment of sustainability awareness and eco-friendly environment are some of the advantages when using natural fibres to stabilize soft ground. A research study was carried out to evaluate the strength of the soft soil when unreinforced and reinforced using natural fibres. The findings on the experimental investigation of the study will be presented in this paper. Crushed coir fibres were used to reinforce an intermediate plasticity soft clay where both materials were collected locally in Brunei Darussalam. The crushed coir fibres were added at 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% to the dry weight of the sample. A series of an unconsolidated undrained Tri-axial test was conducted on the unreinforced and reinforced samples where the behaviour of the samples were observed and compared. The results indicated that inclusion of fibres affects the soil's undrained shear strength. It was observed that increasing the percentage inclusion increases the undrained shear strength of the soil, up to a certain amount. Further increment of fibres, however, does not show further improvement in the undrained shear strength.

Urban ventilation is considered as one parameter, which impacts on building energy consumption and outdoor living condition. This study primarily investigates the effect of street canyon characteristics as well as its orientations on wind pattern and velocity in street canyon via using urban microclimate simulation model, ENVI-met. The wind simulations are performed with four aspect ratios or height-to-width ratio (H/W), three canyon lengths, and four canyon orientations. Calculated wind velocity measured at 1.5 m height of the centre of the street and pedestrian on both sides of the street ranges from 0.2 to 0.97 m/s. N-S and NW-SE canyons, which oriented parallel to the prevailing wind has greater wind velocity than those oriented perpendicular to the wind. The wind velocity is sensitive to aspect ratio and canyon length. The wind velocity in shallow canyon is mostly higher than those in the deep canyon. However, increasing the canyon length considerably improves the low wind speed in the deep canyon up to twice.

The form of rural settlements is not determined by a single factor, but by various factors. With a particular focus on settlement morphology and natural energy, this study introduces thermodynamic architecture theory to discuss the relationship between rural settlement morphology and environmental energy, starting from the analysis of the relationship between rural settlement morphology and building density, building order and settlement boundary dispersion, trying to provide a reference for the updated design of traditional settlements. The first part of this paper explains the research method of settlement form based on thermodynamic architecture theory from the theoretical level trying to construct the analysis framework of settlement form typology based on energy concept. The second part introduces the coupling between thermodynamic energy concept and morphology from the methodological level. The relationship between the three energy correlation factors of intensity, order and dispersion and settlement morphology is studied. In this paper, two settlement cases are quantitatively analysed by simulation and mathematical analysis. In conclusion, it proposes a new perspective for the morphological analysis of rural settlements, which provides a feasible framework for further research on energy utilization and microclimate comfort of settlements. This study also provides a preliminary concept for the integration of the buildings type and thermodynamic study of vernacular architecture in the future.

The identification of garbage at several points along the Badung river shows a low level of public awareness of the environment. The origin of the contents of the garbage in the Badung river comes from various human activities such as industry, household and nature. Although there is a trash rack, but it is not optimal in reducing plastic waste carried on the river. There are several reasons that cause people to throw garbage into the river. Among other things, disposing of garbage into the river is considered more practical and freer, the lack of garbage disposal facilities around the river and has become a culture. Therefore, research was conducted on community behaviour in disposing of garbage along the Badung river. The results showed trigger factors variable with a very influential factor, namely the existence of a disease of 79%. And as many as 5% of the people feel that the availability of Temporary Disposal Site facilities has no effect. The waste management system will be managed directly by the Waste Self-Management Group in each village, as an effort to build an integrated system. It also educates the public how to sort, manage and utilize waste. With the proper governance, of course, it can reduce the volume of waste to landfill.

The topic of body is closely related to architecture. Based on the Anthony Vidler's and others' study on the relationship between body and architecture, this paper studies the relationship between body and architecture from a historical perspective, including the concept of body in philosophical context, the projection of body in classical architecture, and the metaphor of body in postmodern architecture. The theory of body has had an important influence on the architectural form at the beginning of the development of architecture, and then expanded the understanding of architecture at different stages. Recently, with the environmental issues and sustainable development getting more and more attention, the relationship between body theory and architecture will also face new development potentials and opportunities. Reconsidering architecture from the perspective of body perception and paying attention to the interaction between psychology and environment is an opportunity for the development of body and architecture, which may lead to theoretical and practical guidance of more contemporary significance.

In the recent 30 years, Shanghai experienced fast urbanization which landscape shows various types of conflicts among the modern forms and the traditional forms. The insertion of new typologies in the traditional district introduces new urban characteristics and dynamics, which are not typically associated with the traditionally framed cities. The constructions of substantial industrial and commercial projects have caused the demolition of traditional urban forms. Urban designers aspire to revitalize the traditional neighborhood by combining urban fabrics without destroying the structure of the historic neighborhood. This paper attempts to exam the effectiveness of the urban network, the continuity of public structures and operational interactions between new projects and the local context through the study of a "failed" regeneration project in Shanghai, China. Consequently, this paper raised rules in reconnecting the city fabrics towards differential urbanism.

Gap acceptance plays an important role in intersection design and signal warrant. This study investigates gap acceptance of drivers in Yangon, Myanmar. Three T-intersections were selected for study sites; two intersections in the urban area and the other one in Yangon suburb. As Yangon drivers drove on the right-hand side, the key movements that defined the intersection capacity would include left-turn from the major stream (LT-major), right-turn from the minor stream (RT-minor), and left-turn from the minor stream (LT-minor). Raff's method was applied to determine the gap acceptance for these three conflicting movements. The result showed that the gap acceptance for LT-minor was the longest ranging between 7 to 15 seconds. The shortest gap acceptance belonged to the RT-minor for 4 to 8 seconds. The gap acceptance at urban sites was also shorter than that of suburban in all three movements. The drivers tended to decrease their gap acceptance when the traffic volume increased. However, the relationship between the gap acceptance and traffic flow was not significant.

DKI Jakarta has been the most prospective destination for Indonesian low-income urban migrants to find jobs. The need for affordable housing for low-income people increase along with the rise of low-income urban migrants' number. Providing houses for Indonesian low-income people has become the Indonesian government's concern as the housing providers for many years. There were unmatched between the housing government-supplied and the demands of the low-income people. Low-income people have unique preferences in choosing their residences. Moreover, the previous studies show one's preferences on housing develop over one's lifecycle, namely housing career. The preferences for living space is one of the house attribute importance that considered in choosing a residence. This paper will discuss the low-income people preferences on the living spaces and the changes of these preferences over their lifecycle, especially in their early housing career. The research method used distribution of living space preference changes by selected independent variables and bivariate statistical analysis with Pearson Contingency Coefficient. The study took five of the most populated districts in DKI Jakarta and used snowball sampling on 420 respondents. The paper discussion only focuses on 369 of 420 respondents who have at least 2-residence-career, while the other respondents have never moved out from their first residence. This study found that the majority of respondents consider living space when choosing their residence, and almost half of the preferences change along with the changes in the lifecycle. The results of this study are expected to be a consideration for the Indonesian government in providing affordable housing for Indonesian low-income people.
