The Architecture of Emptiness is an urban-architectural approach that focuses on the qualities and possibilities of unbuilt space, giving it primacy over built space. The proposed approach explores how emptiness can act as a generative force for urban-architectural pieces and how, in return, it echoes its built and natural environment. It highlight...

In practice, consideration of fire protection for structural elements mainly occurs after the adopted dimensions of sections. However, this procedure leads to not the most cost-effective solution in general. To find the optimal solution, it is necessary to apply one of the optimization methods. The presented optimization of purlins RHS cross-sectio...
