PREDICTING MASONRY WALL COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS
The application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) has significantly advanced the resolution of complex engineering problems in civil engineering, particularly in data analysis, design, and structural performance prediction. They play a crucial role in materials science by enabling the assessment of mechanical properties of construction materials...

THE ROLE OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM) IN CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION WITHIN THE EDUCATION 5.0 FRAMEWORK
The digital transformation of the construction industry has reshaped the competencies required from future civil engineers. Building Information Modeling (BIM) has emerged as a key methodology supporting integrated design, collaboration, and lifecycle management of construction projects. The higher education is evolving toward the Education 5.0 par...

THE TERRITORIAL DISTRIBUTION OF NURSING HOMES IN SERBIA: PROS AND CONS
Over 22% of the whole Serbian population represent the elderly, i.e. the people aged 65 and above. Accordingly, national policies had to be adjusted to this growing demographic group. However, there is a gap relating territorial aspects of ageing in Serbia, crucial for the mobility of the elderly people. An umbrella document – the National st...

DEFLECTION ANALYSIS OF LATTICE STEEL GIRDERS USING TERRESTRIAL LASER SCANNING
This paper demonstrates the use of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) to detect deflection in lattice steel girders inside a hall structure. Data were acquired using the Trimble TX8, producing a point cloud of over 349 million points. After registration and classification, the processed point cloud served as the basis for deflection analysis. Girder ...

ECOLOGICAL AND HYDROTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF FISH PASSAGE DESIGN – A CASE STUDY OF THE DJERDAP 2 HYDROPOWER PLANT
Fish passages represent a key engineering and ecological measure for restoring the longitudinal connectivity of watercourses disrupted by hydraulic structures. This paper presents the conceptual design of a nature-like fish passage at the Djerdap 2 hydropower plant on the Danube River. The study includes route definition, hydraulic sizing under com...

EVOLUTION OF APPLIED FORMS IN MEMORIAL ARCHITECTURE: FROM PREHISTORIC STRUCTURES TO MODERN INTERPRETATIONS
This paper examines the development of forms in memorial architecture, from prehistoric structures to abstract monuments. It demonstrates how basic patterns such as circular structures, pyramidal forms, and simple geometric shapes have established enduring principles in memorial design. Over time, these forms have evolved under the influence of rel...

Procjena uticaja zidane ispune na seizmički odgovor i koncepcijsku pouzdanost AB okvirnih zgrada
Proračunske analize i procjena uticaja zidane ispune na seizmički odgovor višespratnih armiranobetonskih okvirnih zgrada u domaćoj inženjerskoj praksi najčešće nisu sastavni dio projekta konstrukcije, iako se pri izvođenju okviri uobičajeno ispunjavaju zidanjem zidova na tradicionalan način, bez posebnih mjera izolacije. Kroz uporednu...

APPLICATION OF UHPFRC IN COMPOSITE STRUCTURES FROM A SUSTAINABILITY PERSPECTIVE
Composite steel and concrete structures are widely used in modern civil engineering due to their structural efficiency and economic performance. However, conventional composite systems limit the possibility of full structural disassembly and reuse of steel structure elements and composite slabs, which is increasingly important in sustainable constr...

CONSTRUCTIVIST PEDAGOGY IN ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM WORKSHOPS: CASE STUDY OF THE RED KIOSK
Architectural education has often advanced at a slower pace than the rapid transformations of spatial practice and society. Within this imbalance, the architectural workshop emerges as a condensed yet intensive format of experimentation, providing a distinctive environment for testing pedagogical approaches. This study critically examines the works...
