The “Findings in…” section in this issue of VLC arquitectura is devoted to Architectural Construction, a field whose recent evolution highlights its capacity to open up new lines of reflection and research on the b...

Regional economic growth drives significant land-use changes, impacting urban development, resource allocation, and ecological networks. Challenges such as climate change, ecological degradation, and land-use-ecology con...

Prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) is composed of concrete, steel cylinder, mortar and prestressed steel wire, which has been widely used in water conveyance and diversion projects. PCCP employs high-strength conc...

After reading this issue of VLC#13.1, it becomes apparent that, little by little, the magazine is helping to build knowledge around a series of recurring themes of interest, such as the links between architecture and the...

This study focusing on a carbon fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (CFPA6) crash box system designed, manufactured, and crash-tested within an aluminium environment as part of a novel automotive front-end structure (FES). A ke...

During tunnel construction using the drilling and blasting method, layered jointed rock masses often pose engineering challenges such as over- and under-excavation of the crown and working face. The authors addressed the...

The German Pavilion at the 1929 Barcelona Exhibition, a benchmark of 20th-century rationalist architecture designed by Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich, was built on a plinth made up of seventy tile vaults. This decisio...

Wood is a natural material widely used in construction. Unlike artificial building materials, wood is characterized by natural defects (flaws) that can negatively affect its performance under load. This study proposes a ...

With the rapid evolution of virtual reality technologies such as digital twins, industrial Internet of Things, edge intelligence, and metaverse, virtual‒reality integration has become a core driving force for the const...

Portland cement production is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions, and the scarcity of natural river sand limits conventional concrete production. Despite increasing interest in geopolymer concrete (GPC), studies...

This work introduces a novel geometrical and analytical modeling framework for predicting the stiffness properties of knitted composites, a class of materials known for their complex architectures and versatile mechanica...

Recycling of construction waste is essential for sustainable cement-based materials, yet the variable composition of recycled autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) powder pose significant challenges when used in grouting app...

Reinforced concrete (RC) piers have been widely studied and applied in bridge construction practice. To ensure the normal operation of RC piers under corrosive environments and seismic effects, new corrosion-resistant ma...
