Dams are engineering constructions used since ancient times for multiple purposes, including river regulation, flood control, water storage, and energy production. Over the centuries, they have spread worldwide, playing ...

The present work aimed to develop an experimental model using a system composed of a strain gauge and an Arduino board to monitor the modulus of elasticity of concrete. The methodology involved applying compressive ...

The construction industry is a relevant area for the economic development of the planet, and, at the same time as it moves many markets, it is also one of the areas most concerned with environmental sustainability, due ...

Basic sanitation services represent elements of fundamental importance for society, especially in the Brazilian context, marked by a historical deficit in the provision of these resources. Additionally, it is known ...

The construction of increasingly taller and slender buildings is driven by several factors, including disordered population growth, scarcity of resources and the search for optimization of urban spaces. The consideration ...

Urban mobility in Brazil faces notable structural challenges, a result of the post-Industrial Revolution emphasis on vehicular traffic at the expense of sustainable options. Issues such as inadequate public transportation, ...

The construction sector, crucial to the Brazilian economy, plays a significant role in GDP growth and job creation. However, this sector presents environmental challenges, mainly in relation to the management of ...

In structural engineering, many elements can be calculated in a simplified manner, following the classical principle of Bernoulli, which assumes that the section remains flat after undergoing deformations. However, it is ...
