Abstract:
Detecting thermal bridges in building envelopes should be a priority to improve the thermal performance of buildings. Recently, thermographic surveys are being used to detect thermal bridges. However, conventional methods of detecting thermal bridges from thermal images rely on the subjective judgment of audits. Research has been conducted to automatically detect thermal bridges from thermal images to improve problems caused by such subjective judgment, but most of these studies are still in the early stage. Therefore, this study proposes a linear thermal bridge detection method based on image

Abstract:
Bridges are critical infrastructures that support our economic activities and daily lives. Aging bridges have been a major issue for decades, prompting researchers to improve resilience and performance through structural health monitoring. While most research focuses on superstructure damage, the majority of bridge failures are associated with support or joint damages, indicating the importance of bridge support. Indeed, bridge support affects the performance of both the substructure and superstructure by maintaining the load path and allowing certain movements to mitigate thermal and other st

Abstract:
Increasing building energy performance has become an obligatory objective in many countries. Thermal bridge is a major cause of poor energy performance, durability, and indoor air quality of buildings. This paper starts with a review of thermal bridges and their negative impacts on building energy efficiency. Based on published literatures, various types of building thermal bridges are discussed in this paper, including the most effective solutions to diminish their impacts. In addition, various numerical and experimental studies on the balcony thermal bridge are explored. Results show that am

Along with the promotion of low-carbon and zero carbon buildings such as ultra-low energy buildings, near zero energy buildings, and zero energy buildings, there is higher and higher demand to the thermal performance of building envelopes. Thermal bridges have a crucial impact on the thermal performance of building envelope structures. In order to achieve the goal of energy conservation and carbon dioxide reduction in building structures, it is necessary to conduct refined calculations and evaluations on thermal bridge treatment measures.

Thermal bridges significantly influence the energy performance of buildings. However, their impact varies depending on the type of thermal bridge, climate conditions, construction methodologies, and geometric characteristics of the building. On the Spanish Mediterranean coast, buildings with large balconies are predominant. Nevertheless, the Spanish energy efficiency regulations do not adequately specify the thermal bridges at the junctions of balconies with facades, leading to a lack of consideration for their influence in the majority of architectural projects.

Abstract:
Most apartment buildings in South Korea use internal insulation systems to reduce building energy demand. However, thermal bridges such as balcony slabs in apartment buildings still lead to significant heat loss in winter, because the internal insulation system is not continuous in the balcony slab structure, and floor heating systems are commonly used in residential buildings. Therefore, this study investigates two types of thermal break elements, namely thermal break (TB) and thermal break-fiber glass reinforced polymer (TB-GFRP), to improve the thermal resistance of a balcony thermal bridge

The “thermal bridges” are defined as an isolated building’s areas, where the construction elements have higher thermal conductivity, compared with the rest of the building envelope. Thus, at cold winter conditions, a significant temperature difference may occur between neighbouring solid and air volumes within the construction. Moreover, it has been documented, that the heating energy demand of a building may be increased with more than 30%, due to the existence of thermal bridges and the increased heat losses from the indoors. Consequently, in the recent years, norms and standards have been d

Abstract:
Integral bridges are generally considered an attractive alternative to conventional bridges presenting the economic advantage of lower construction and maintenance costs. However, the concept of the integral bridge presents other challenges primarily arising from the monolithic connection that exists between the superstructure and the substructure. Thermal loading leads to daily cycles of expansion and contraction superimposed on seasonal cycles. This results in significantly higher soil-structure interaction activity that may lead to excessive earth pressures behind the abutment and potential

Bridge monitoring studies indicate that the quasi-static response of a bridge, while dependent on various input forces, is affected predominantly by variations in temperature. In many structures, the quasi-static response can even be approximated as equal to its thermal response. Consequently, interpretation of measurements from quasi-static monitoring requires accounting for the thermal response in measurements. Developing solutions to this challenge, which is critical to relate measurements to decision-making and thereby realize the full potential of SHM for bridge management, is the main fo

A methodology is presented to analyse the thermal behaviour of buildings with the goal to quantify energy saving measures. The solid structure of the building is modelled with finite elements to fully account for its ability to store energy and to accurately predict heat loss through thermal bridges. Air flow in the rooms is approximated by a lumped element model with three dynamical nodes per room. The dynamic model also contains the control algorithm for the HVAC system and predicts the net primary energy consumption for heating and cooling of the building for any time period. The new simula

Abstract:
There are over 590,000 bridges dispersed across the roadway network that stretches across the United States alone. Each bridge with a length of 20 feet or greater must be inspected at least once every 24 months, according to the Federal Highway Act (FHWA) of 1968. This research developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based framework for bridge and road inspection using drones with multiple sensors collecting capabilities. It is not sufficient to conduct inspections of bridges and roads using cameras alone, so the research team utilized an infrared (IR) camera along with a high-resolution opt

Abstract:
Team from Czech Technical University in Prague participated in prestigious international contest Solar Decathlon Europe 21-22. The topic of its FIRSTLIFE project was an extension of student dormitory by adding of new floors on the building together with a retrofit of the existing part. The paper deals with the pedagogical context of this activity. Students got an extraordinary opportunity to actually implement their theoretical proposals based on calculations. They also received feedback on the extent to which detailed designs are feasible in normal construction practice. New knowledge can be

Abstract:
The Augered Cast-In-Place (ACIP) Pile Committee of the Deep Foundations Institute (DFI) performed a foundation installation, monitoring, performance and extraction program for ACIP piles in the fall of 2016. The purpose of the project was to demonstrate a fully monitored installation of instrumented 18 in (457 mm) and 24 in (610 mm) diameter ACIP piles, including automated monitoring equipment (AME); post-installation thermal integrity profiling (TIP) measurements; compression, tension, and lateral load testing (including monitoring of strain gages embedded along the compression pile shaft); a
