The steel building system of residence project has more advantage in environment protection and project management than the traditional residence project construction. The main steel structure residence components can be manufactured in the green construction base as the manufacturing industry. The key issue to realize the green construction model of steel building system of residence project is to apply with a suitable model of green construction base. This paper introduced four types of green construction base which are different levels related with project, enterprise, industry and region to combine construction industry with manufacturing. The TOPSIS method was applied to evaluate and analyze to figure out the optimization model of green construction base in steel building system of residence project.

This article describes Dhajji Dewari which is a non-engineered traditional construction method mostly used in the northern parts of Pakistan. This method consists of a timber frame filled with the stones in a mud slurry. This article is aimed to assess the effects of different infills on the lateral load capacity of Dhajji Dewari. For this purpose, three full scale Dhajji Dewari panels were constructed and unidirectional in-plane lateral load was applied. One panel was without infill, two other panels with different type of infills. Results of the experimentation showed that the infill presence effects the lateral load resisting performance of the Dhajji Dewari.

A new partitioning method, called Wedging Insertion, is proposed for solving large-scale symmetric Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). The idea of our proposed algorithm is to cut a TSP tour into four segments by nodes’ coordinate (not by rectangle, such as Strip, FRP, and Karp). Each node is located in one of their segments, which excludes four particular nodes, and each segment does not twist with other segments. After the partitioning process, this algorithm utilizes traditional construction method, that is, the insertion method, for each segment to improve the quality of tour, and then connects the starting node and the ending node of each segment to obtain the complete tour. In order to test the performance of our proposed algorithm, we conduct the experiments on various TSPLIB instances. The experimental results show that our proposed algorithm in this paper is more efficient for solving large-scale TSPs. Specifically, our approach is able to obviously reduce the time complexity for running the algorithm; meanwhile, it will lose only about 10% of the algorithm’s performance.

Green building is the inevitable trend of the development of the construction industry. One of the key links to realize green building is green construction management. The poor economy of traditional construction hinders the smooth promotion of green construction in the construction industry. This paper mainly from the green building and green construction two concepts of related content research. Through the analysis and discussion of the main principles of project cost management in green construction, this paper briefly expounds some implementation measures of project cost management in green construction. This paper deeply discusses the current situation of green construction project cost management, and puts forward relevant improvement countermeasures. The experimental results show that: construction enterprises should make innovative thinking on construction management and bring green construction into project management. This can provide impetus for the sustainable development of the construction industry.

There is little provision about construction in the assessment system for green building in China, but green construction plays an important role in green building and it is a trend that the assessment system for green building should include the green construction in China. Based on contrasts of evaluation standard for green building, combining with operation experiments of green Olympic building assessment system, difficulties in developing of green construction industry in China is proposed such as policy, time, concept and materials. Thus, popularizing measures for green construction are suggested, including extending standards for green building, establishing owner inspiriting system and building system, developing popularity effect of green construction.

The purpose of this study is to show logical member models considering the Korean traditional construction method and present a simple but rational modeling method of the whole structure to evaluate the structural stability of the KTWS. For this purpose, one of the KTWS, the Mindori House is selected and a structure analysis is performed considering its construction stage and load transfer mechanism. The variation of the behaviors according to joint modeling methods is studied using SAP2000 program and its results are compared with those of manual calculation.

In Malaysian construction industry, Industrialised Building System (IBS) has been introduced to replace the traditional construction method. While the government has been making significant efforts to encourage the IBS adoption, the uptake of IBS in Malaysia construction projects remains low. This study seeks to identify the barriers to the uptake of IBS and to propose the strategies to enhance the implementation IBS in Malaysian housing construction process from the perspectives of consultants. Interviews were conducted with five selected experienced individuals who were working with consultants (civil and structure engineer and quantity surveyor). The results revealed that, lack of knowledge and insufficient skilled workers are the main factors that impede the IBS uptake in Malaysia. Meanwhile, the most strategy proposed by the interviewees is to increase the facilities and incentives in order to expand research and development in IBS.
