Computer Aided Analysis of Frame Structures
A Plane Frame Analysis (PFA) system is presented. The system analyses structures with prismatic beam and truss elements, elastic supports, internal releases, support settlements, node...

Static and Dynamic Analysis of Highrise Buildings on Microcomputers
The author's experience in conducting static and dynamic analyses of three-dimensional multistory buildings on microcomputers using the tier building model and the method...

Intrinsic Models for Interactive Structural Design
This paper introduces a 'generic' model for interactive design of constructed facilities. The proposed methodology takes real world conditions, in terms of load...

Hierarchical Substructuring for Adaptive Analysis
An algorithm for the automatic generation, from solid models, of finite element meshes organized as spatially addressable quaternary trees (for 2-D analysis) or octal trees (for 3-D analysis)...

Modeling Construction Operations in the Classroom
Students in construction management need to be exposed to the dynamics of the construction site and become familiar with the interaction of resources. In addition, the student needs to...

Construction Information and Applications Systems in Education
Designers are utilizing relatively sophisticated software but constractors, except for the largest companies, are limited to the most basic business applications. Integrative use of computers...
