The model contributes to the new towns in similar situations in the world to become sustainable a...

Smart Built-Environments for People Living with Dementia _ Crimson Publishers Smart Built-Environments for People Living with Dementia by Tauseef Gulrez* in Advancements in Civil Engineering & Technology Ageing population is a world-wide rapidly growing phenomena [1,2]. Increased longevity is often associated with susceptibility to diseases which lead to cognitive or physical decline of human body. There are an estimated 47 million people worldwide living with dementia in 2015. According to a recent estimate, by 2035 the population of people living with dementia will double. With the current trends in population demographics, it is becoming increasingly difficult for governments worldwide to fully support the health and social care systems. One of a recent challenge for civil engineering is to create Dementia friendly communities and housing. https://crimsonpublishers.com/acet/fulltext/ACET.000516.php For more open access journals in  Crimson Publishers ...

Fires on Buildings: A Needed Study - Crimson Publishers Fires on Buildings: A Needed Study by Cristiano Correa* in Advancements in Civil Engineering & Technology Fires on buildings (comercials, services, factories or residential) are extremely frequent all around the world. It is estimated this type of fire takes around one third (1/3) of all the recorded events. Figure 1 confirms this statement in a study made in thirty-nine (39) countries around the world [1]. The damages that derive from these fires are considerable, specially the economic losses in consequence of the interruption of activities or even productive chains, promoting the “run-out of jobs” [2], over the significant amount of money that are set for the rebuilding process of damaged or even destroyed structures [2,3]. https://crimsonpublishers.com/acet/fulltext/ACET.000515.php For more open access journals in  Crimson Publishers  please click on link:  https://crimsonpublishers.com ...
