Steering Spatial Development In The Vienna Agglomeration, Thomas Dillinger 2014 Vienna University of Technology

Steering Spatial Development In The Vienna Agglomeration, Thomas Dillinger

UBT International Conference

After the falling down of the “iron curtain” Vienna starts to grow again. It is now a metropolitan area with about 2.6 Mio. inhabitants. Vienna is surrounded by Lower Austria, which is one of the nine countries (Bundesländer) of Austria. Spatial Planning is based on the Austrian Constitution a complex matter. The Federal State, the Countries and the Municipalities have competences in Spatial Planning. Thus, in the agglomeration we are confronted with different spatial planning legislation, instruments and institution.In this situation basically three instruments have been developed to steer spatial development in the Vienna agglomeration: Lower Austria has passed two …


Seismic Analysis Of Structural Building With Reinforced Concrete Shear Walls According To The European Standards, Armend Mujaj, Florim Grajçevci, Driton R. Kryeziu 2014 Polytechnic University of Tirana

Seismic Analysis Of Structural Building With Reinforced Concrete Shear Walls According To The European Standards, Armend Mujaj, Florim Grajçevci, Driton R. Kryeziu

UBT International Conference

A big research effort has been made on the prediction of earthquakes in the last decades, and in fact the exploration of the new techniques aiming to foresee the occurrence of seismic events is in a continuous progress. Several analytical tools have been developed around the world in order to estimate, with different degrees of accuracy, the vulnerability of buildings and the probable loss of lives and economic resources, due to the occurrence of an earthquake. Those tools are intended to be used by government agencies, and even by insurance companies, as a mean for planning of emergency preparedness procedures …


The Design Of Durable Concretes, Produced By Traditional Mountain Aggregate, In Different Environments, Alma Golgota, Rezarta Qemallaj, Boriana Vrusho 2014 Polytechnic University of Tirana

The Design Of Durable Concretes, Produced By Traditional Mountain Aggregate, In Different Environments, Alma Golgota, Rezarta Qemallaj, Boriana Vrusho

UBT International Conference

This article describes the effect of durable concrete in two different environments, which is produced by traditional mountain aggregates. For this purpose, we have produced concrete of class C30/37 with aggregates from mountain quarry. Meanwhile, we have not changed other components of concrete. Water – cement report is 0.4-0.61. During experimental faze, are done comparisons of resistance to compression, water and chlorides penetration for specimens of concrete which are curing in normal environment (N) and in marine environment (A). Concrete cubes produced, were treated in marine and normal environment for 3, 7 and 28 days in Durres coastal city, Albania. …


Ubt Inventory Of Kosovo’S Architectural Heritage, Verona Ymeri Hoxha 2014 University for Business and Technology

Ubt Inventory Of Kosovo’S Architectural Heritage, Verona Ymeri Hoxha

UBT International Conference

Architectural Heritage being one of the most prominent fragment of Kosovo’s heritage consists of different types of buildings, amongst which apart from those deriving from ottoman era there are individual buildings of high importance which prevail as a form of rebellion to Ottoman intrusion and the desire to intertwine with European architecture. These structures appear in the 19th and 20th century and are characterized with different elements which symbolize a glimpse of escape through reflection of European architecture in Kosovo. This heritage has been a subject of destruction over the centuries, with little or small effort put towards its preservation. …


Documentation And Inventory Of Architectural Heritage.The European Model Including The Role Of Universities Within, Caroline Jaeger Klein 2014 Vienna University of Technology

Documentation And Inventory Of Architectural Heritage.The European Model Including The Role Of Universities Within, Caroline Jaeger Klein

UBT International Conference

Preserving its architectural heritage has a long tradition in the European history. For the famous Renaissance and Baroque architects especially in Italy it was considered to be integrated part of their “art”. Hence, it were art historians to start systematic documentation of the cultural heritage around 1900. For Central Europe Georg Dehio in Strasbourg and Alois Riegl and Max Dvořák in Vienna were most influential. Their legacy are printed inventory handbooks and art-topographies, which documented the built heritage and gave public access to heritage information. This is the inevitable base for protection and care of monuments as well as for …


A Synthesis Of Architectural Form For Three Different Structural Systems, Hektor Cullufi, Altin Bidaj, Ervin Paci, Irakli Premti, Drilona Disha 2014 Polytechnic University of Tirana

A Synthesis Of Architectural Form For Three Different Structural Systems, Hektor Cullufi, Altin Bidaj, Ervin Paci, Irakli Premti, Drilona Disha

UBT International Conference

Architectural form is often used but less frequently defined. Architectural form is an inclusive term that refers primarily to a building’s external outline or shape, and to a lesser degree references its internal organization and unifying principles. Shape encompasses various visual and relational properties; namely size, color and texture, position, orientation and visual inertia. Form is therefore generally and primarily understood as the shape or three dimensional massing, but also encompasses additional architectural aspects including structural configuration and form, in so far as they may organize and unify an architectural design.


Ottoman - Bizantin City Case, Tirana - Birth Of A City, Ogri Mane, Armand Vokshi 2014 Polytechnic University of Tirana

Ottoman - Bizantin City Case, Tirana - Birth Of A City, Ogri Mane, Armand Vokshi

UBT International Conference

The expansion of Islam did multiply the number of cities to the edge of the desert, transforming the nomadic tribes in urban populations. For a good Muslim cannot be a better practice of the religion if not in the city, in the "Friday Mosque" for common prayers. Life in the city is considered a condition of moral perfection and been fixed in one place, giving up the nomadic life. The urban culture in Islam is formed and developed through a series of contributions, derived from the traditions of construction and urban structures of the pre-Islamic city. Arabia and the countries …

Assessment Of Noise-Induced Annoyance By Tones In Noise From Building Mechanical Systems, Joonhee Lee, Lily M. Wang 2014 University of Nebraska - Lincoln

Assessment Of Noise-Induced Annoyance By Tones In Noise From Building Mechanical Systems, Joonhee Lee, Lily M. Wang

Durham School of Architectural Engineering and Construction: Faculty Publications

Prominent tones in noise generated by mechanical equipment in buildings can cause complaints from occupants in buildings. The ISO 1996-2 and ANSI S1.13 standards describe methodologies and metrics to quantify tonality perception, but the influence of tones in noise on human annoyance and performance is not fully understood yet. This paper investigates annoyance responses of humans while exposed to background noise with tonal components. Twenty participants completed digit span tasks while exposed to noise signals with differing levels of tones and overall loudness. Subjects were also asked to rate their annoyance after completing tasks under each noise signal. The subjective …
