The construction of many buildings requires ready mixed concrete (RMC) delivery from concrete plants. It is common to supply multiple construction sites, simultaneously, from one or more concrete plants. In such cases, a crucial task is planning the appropriate delivery schedule to each construction site in order to minimize or avoid machinery idli...

The potential of Vlasotince, a small town in southern Serbia, along with that of similar settlements, remains largely unrecognized and underutilized. Until recently, the town's significant architectural heritage had been almost entirely unexplored. However, in 2023 and 2024, comprehensive research was conducted on the architectural heritage of Vlas...

Every city has pockets of underutilized land, underdeveloped urban areas, or areas that are currently in a state of disrepair. Such spaces weaken the image of the city as well as the living conditions. Also, in addition to the shortcomings of the physical structure, one of the main problems of the multi-family housing areas (MFHA) is caused by indi...

This study investigates the influence of torsional effects on the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) ductile buildings and provides a framework for their analysis and design. Key considerations include the relative positions of the center of mass (CM) and center of stiffness (CS), stiffness distribution, and the control of lateral disp...

This paper examines how digital tools have transformed the architectural design process – from early CAD systems and parametric modeling to generative design and modern AI-based algorithms. The focus is on the relationship between the architect and the algorithm in shaping architectural solutions. Over time, digital tools have enhanced the pr...
