DETERMINATION OF VENTILATION HEAT LOSSES THROUGH BUILDING ENVELOPE – A CASE STUDY
In this paper the experimental procedure for the determination of ventilation heat losses across building envelopes has been shown. The alternative name for this method is Blower Door Test or Fan Pressurization method. This text is a user manual for the determination of ventilation heat losses and parameters which is used to describe the air permea...

STRATEGY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF 'SMART' CITIES WITH A LOOK AT THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA
Cities are the main pillars of human and economic activities and have the capacity to create positive synergies that create opportunities for development for their residents. However, they also generate a large range of problems that are increasingly complex and more difficult to solve as the city grows. The "smart" city is a newer concept introduc...

ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF GROUND TYPES ON SEISMIC RESPONSE OF MULTI-STOREY FRAME STRUCTURE
Experiences from previous earthquakes have shown that level of structural damages depends onground features where the structure is placed. Also, it is noted that reinforced concrete framestructures collapse due to the appearance of “weak floor”, especially when are founded on groundswith lower characteristics. In this paper, the seismic...

THE INFLUENCE OF DIFFERENT CURING CONDITIONS ON HVFAC RHEOLOGICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
This research was conducted in order to evaluate the influence of different curing conditions on rheological and mechanical properties of high volume fly ash concrete (HVFAC) in comparison with the ordinary Portland cement concrete (OPC). Four types of concrete were made: two HVFAC and two OPC designed to have the same consistency and 28-day compre...

CONCEPT OF SOLVING THE STANDING TRAFFIC FOR THE CENTRAL CITY ZONE OF BANJA LUKA
Needs of standing traffic significantly burden the infrastructure and functioning of urbansettlements. The problem is particularly acute in non-developed and developing countries whosecities are experiencing a virtually uncontrolled growth. Control of standing traffic is also an elementof sustainable urban mobility. The paper presents the authors&r...

REVIEW OF BASIC CONCEPTS OF CONTACT MECHANICS OF FRICTIONLESS CONTACT WITH EMPHASIS ON PENALTY METHOD
Problems involving contact are of great importance in industry related to mechanical and civilengineering, but also in biomechanics and other applications. The contact interaction betweensurfaces and different bodies like in a bolted splice connection joint or area in which a tire interactswith the soil is not known a priori, leading to a nonlinear...
