System of prefabricated modules installed on the existing building envelope is one alternativesolution for deep energy refurbishment of buildings in the European Union. It allows thermalupgrade installation of new parts in the HVAC system. Moreover, some elements of the envelopecan be made of renewable materials. This research compares the resident...

To optimize measurement procedures in laboratories, in terms of the balance between economics and risk, determination of the optimal calibration interval for measuring equipment has significant importance. This paper will show an approximate, but effective method for determination of initial calibration interval, regarding “ILAC” guidelines and ori...

This paper presents the basic principles of seismic analysis of structures according to the YU81 andEuropean norm EN 1998-1: 2004. The aim of the paper is a critical review of comparative analysisof seismic impacts in the design of building structures according to these standards. EC8 involvesseveral innovative approaches for the design and constru...

The INSPIRE Directive establishes a framework for the creation of a spatial data infrastructure(SDI), which will enable the exchange of spatial information between public sector organizationsand better access to spatial information in general across the Europe. This paper describes theharmonization of the INSPIRE theme Administrative Units. Data ha...

For the design and construction of buildings in seismic areas the European Standard EN 1998-1:2004 offers two non-linear methods, namely: a non-linear pushover based static method and a nonlineardynamic method. This paper discusses those methods which differ from one another in respectto accuracy, simplicity and transparency. Non-linear static proc...

In this paper, expanded polystyrene (EPS) lightweight concrete (LWC) was investigated. The mainaim was to design EPS LWC with the specified density of 1200 kg/m3 according to standard concretemix proportion. Mix proportion included total replacement of the conventional coarse aggregate bymaximum possible amount of EPS beads, which ensures concrete ...

Within this paper, we evaluated the quality of three Global Geopotential Models entitled: EGM96,EGM2008, and GOCO05c. The models were evaluated by using 1001 terrestrial discrete values ofheight anomalies determined by Global Navigation Satellite Systems and normal heights, which weconsidered to be true values within this research. In addition to t...

Invention of cross-laminated timber (CLT) was a big milestone for building with wood. Due tonovelty of CLT and timber’s complex mechanical behavior, the existing design codes cover onlyrectangular CLT panels, simply supported along 2 parallel or all 4 edges, making numerical methodsnecessary in other cases. This paper presents a practical engineeri...

This paper discusses the phenomenon of metaphor as an instrument of significance and expressionin the memorial architecture. The metaphor enables an indirect transfer of meaning via analogy. Inthe wider sense it represents expression of meaning via something else. The original linguistic form,the metaphor in architecture deeply permeates creative t...

Globally, maps are our primary source of comprehensive information about the shape, size and arrangement of Earth features. Maps are the only way we can get a unique and comprehensive view of the world. Unfortunately, globally, all maps are somehow deformed, affecting our perception and understanding of the various geometrical properties of the wor...
