Comparison of prediction tools to determine their reliability on calculating operational heating consumption by monitoring no-fines concrete dwellings (2018)
Journal Article
Sierra, F., Mahdjoubi, L., Gething, B., Alzaatreh, A., Fitton, R., & Marshall, A. (2018). Comparison of prediction tools to determine their reliability on calculating operational heating consumption by monitoring no-fines concrete dwellings. Energy and Buildings, 176, 78-94. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2018.07.012

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Nowadays most retrofit decisions are based on reducing CO2 / heating consumption. The aim of this study was to determine the reliability of three tools (RdSAP, SAP and IES) often used to predict these reductions. Three no-fines c...

A dynamic approach for evacuees’ distribution and optimal routing in hazardous environments (2018)
Journal Article
Boguslawski, P., Mahdjoubi, L., Zverovich, V., & Fadli, F. (2018). A dynamic approach for evacuees’ distribution and optimal routing in hazardous environments. Automation in Construction, 94, 11-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2018.05.032

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. In a complex built environment, the situation changes rapidly during an emergency event. Typically, available systems rely heavily on a static scenario in the calculation of safest routes for evacuation. In addition, egress route...

Towards an automated photogrammetry-based approach for monitoring and controlling construction site activities (2018)
Journal Article
Omar, H., Mahdjoubi, L., & Kheder, G. (2018). Towards an automated photogrammetry-based approach for monitoring and controlling construction site activities. Computers in Industry, 98, 172-182. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compind.2018.03.012

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. The construction industry has a poor productivity record, which was predominantly ascribed to inadequate monitoring of how a project is progressing at any given time. Most available approaches do not offer key stakeholders a shar... Read More about Towards an automated photogrammetry-based approach for monitoring and controlling construction site activities.
