Deformation measurements are of great significance and importance based on which in the processing and analysis of measurement data determined displacements and deformations of construction objects during the exploitation and obtained information on whether the construction objects comply with expectancy. The consequences of neglecting the need for...

This paper will address methodological model of architectural design using the type and typological transformation as a mechanism for preservation of identity and cultural specificity in the growing phenomenon of globalization and unification of space. Theoretical framework of generative typology shall be presented, which will be the base of design...

An approach to elasto‐plastic analysis of engineering structures is presented in this study. Simple plane truss finite element with two nodes is used. This element is ideally suited as a basis for studying plasticity theory since it implies one‐dimensional state of stress and strain. Material model of linear isotropic hardening is applied. Algorith...

This research addresses the issue of transformation of urban landscape, especially its green structure, in the context of urbanisation understood as a complex socio‐spatial process possessing both global and local characteristics. This new urban landscape extends beyond the traditional relations between the city center and periphery as two distinct...

This paper raises the issue and examines the causes and effects of the neglect of abandoned and underused spaces in the Republic of Srpska (brownfield spaces, greenfield spaces), emphasising the necessity for their regeneration. Urban regeneration is manifoldly understood as a process, strategy and comprehensive method of urban renewal  ‐ &nbs...

Making gravel pylons is one of the methods of improving soil characteristics i.e. increasing soil density. It can easily be used to avoid expensive replacement of materials, especially when it comes to large‐ volume facilities. Gravel pylons reduce the risk of liquefaction, which is very important for seismic areas such as Banja Luka. It is necessa...

Composite roadway bridges constructed using precast deck slabs are exposed in this paper. Prefabricated units are suitable for use in small and middle span bridges. Prefabricated systems are used for new construction and reconstruction and rehabilitation of existing bridges. It is presented two types of the precast deck slabs, partial–thickne...

Development of device for harmonic excitation of engineering structures is presented. Device is developed in order to introduce experimental dynamic analysis of structures to students and engineers. Basic drive mechanisms of device are electric motors whose rotational motion is transferred into translational. This enables possibility for excitement...

This paper focuses on the research process within the methodology of architectural design. Architectural design as an eternal quest for appropriate project concept, in infinite richness of variants that space offers, represents the subject of this paper wherewith the author has set up the task to seek answers to specific questions of perception. Th...
