THE ARCHITECTURE OF SCHOOLS IN BANJA LUKA BUILT IN 1878-1918
This paper deals with the architecture of schools built in Banja Luka, during the 40-year long Austro-Hungarian rule in today’s Bosnia and Herzegovina. The buildings for education, spanning from the basic, very small, elementary schools, to vast buildings, like higher gymnasium, received very interesting set of architectural styles featuring tradit...

GEODETIC MONITORING OF STABILITY OF THE CONSTRUCTION PIT DIAPHRAGM OF THE OBJECT
High-rise building, today, is characterized by the construction of facilities that are higher and more complex in their geometry, and are often located in the narrow city core where numerous facilities have been built in a small area that additionally complicate the execution of construction and geodetic works. In order to obtain information on the...

STUDY ON SEISMIC REINFORCEMENT MEASURES AND SCHEMES OF IRREGULAR FRAME STRUCTURES
The SAP2000 finite element analysis software was applied to model the original frame and carry out the elasto-plastic time-history analysis method, with an existing irregular plane framework in Tianjin as the object of the study. Buckling-Restrained Brace (BRB) damping and anti-torsional reinforcement scheme was proposed based on the analysis resul...

ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF THE EDUCATIONAL BUILDING ENVELOPE ACCORDING TO A PASSIVE AND LOW-ENERGY STANDARD
High energy demands and obligation for building energy certification make an impact on architectural design and building construction. The paper aims to present energy performance of the educational building envelope in a passive and low-energy standard in the climatic conditions of the north zone of the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina)....

EMPIRICAL DETERMINATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PERIOD OF FREE VIBRATION OF RC BUILDINGS
Determining the value of the fundamental period of vibrations of reinforced concrete structures is a complex task. In order to have certain data on the fundamental period of vibration in the earliest design stage, engineers use various approximate methods, which can quickly and simply, but still sufficiently accurate, provide an estimate of the req...

ASSESSMENT OF HUMAN EXPOSURE TO VIBRATION AND NOISE IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS
Vibration in buildings may occur from different external or internal sources. Where occupants can detect vibration in buildings, it may potentially impact their comfort or working efficiency. Some vibration sources give rise to audible effects such as structure-borne noise and airborne noise, and secondary rattling of building elements or contents....

COOPERATION BETWEEN ARCHITECTS AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS IN THE DESIGN OF COMPLEX REINFORCED CONCRETE ROOF STRUCTURES
The history of the relationship between architects and structural engineers went through a series of phases from the mid-19th century, when reinforced concrete began to be technologically advanced. This relationship had its ups and downs, but it became especially important when large covered spaces were formed. Both architects and structural engine...

THE INFLUENCE OF CONCRETE VISCOUS DEFORMATIONS IN THE CALCULATION OF THE HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS BEHAVIOR OVER TIME
An example of a high-rise building behavior calculation shows that weather deformations of concrete have a significant contribution to changing the behavior of vertical load-bearing elements - columns and walls. The phenomenon of different shrinkage of concrete/steel pillars and concrete core due to the shrinkage and creep of concrete over time is ...

ULTIMATE STRENGTH OF COMPRESSED SLABS AND BOX GIRDERS
A theoretical investigation into the effectiveness of a plate thickness against the ultimate strength of a compressed slabs and box girders is carried out. Series of the buckling analyses, the elastic, the viscoplastic and the ultimate strength are performed by the rheological-dynamical inelastic theory and the finite strip method on a slabs and bo...

ANALYSIS OF LINEAR THERMAL TRANSMITTANCE OF A SIMPLE BALCONY THERMAL BRIDGE
The linear thermal transmittance of a simple balcony thermal bridge with a uniformbalcony slab and wall was analysed. In a five-parameter model (thickness, length andthermal conductivity of a balcony slab; thickness and thermal conductivity of an adjacentwall), it was found that the length of the balcony slab does not influence the thermaltransmitt...
