BIM technology acceptance among reinforcement workers - the case of Oslo airport's terminal 2
(Journal of Information Technology in Construction;21(1), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-01)Today’s design teams deliver engineering models sophisticated enough to serve as blueprints for production and construction work. However, issues of adoption persist for the on-site use of building information modelling ... -
Exploring a simple visualization tool for improving conceptual understanding of classical beam theory
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-12)First year students struggle to understand the concepts in introductory engineering physics courses. Computer generated visuali zations have proven their value for improving learning in tertiary education. ... -
A Review of Building Information Modelling for Construction in Developing Countries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12)Building Information Modelling (BIM) is wide ly seen as a catalyst for innovation and productivity in the construction industry. BIM can assist a more sustainable construction process that in turn may contribute to ... -
Acceptance of construction scheduling visualizations: bar-charts, flowline-charts, or perhaps BIM?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12-02)Four - dimensional Building Information Modelling is widely viewed as the next evolutionary step in construction scheduling. Linking scheduling information to parametric object models is believed to ... -
Parametric Study of a Vertically Configured Ground Source Heat Pump System
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Ground source heat pumps are being common in western countries in order to reduce the primary energy consumption and the corresponding greenhouse gas emissions associated with heating and cooling of buildings. In this ... -
BIM understanding and activities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The AECOO (architects, engineers, contractors, operators, owners) industry is moving toward increased digitalization. This unstoppable process requires a clear understanding of the important elements required to reach the ... -
The effect of reinforcement corrosion on the structural behaviour of prestressed bridges in the Norwegian coastal regions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Prestressed concrete (PC) is one of the main structural materials used in Norway for bridge structures. Prestressed and precast concrete beams were even used for building the historical Atlantic Road, which has the status ... -
Stakeholder perspectives and information exchange in AEC projects

Application of response surface method (RSM) on sensitivity analysis of reinforced concrete bridge pier wall
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this paper, the nonlinear behaviour of a reinforced concrete (RC) bridge pier wall was evaluated by nonlinear finite element analyses (NLFEA) method. The NLFEA results were compared to the simulated ... -
Design of RC Sections with Single Reinforcement According to EC2-1-1 and the Rectangular Stress Distribution
(Computational Methods in Applied Sciences;44, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Nowadays, the design of concrete structures in Europe is governed by the application of Eurocode 2 (EC2). In particular, EC2 — Part 1-1 deals with the general rules and the rules for concrete buildings. An important ... -
Understanding Biofilm Issues in Wastewater Pipes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)It is well known how wastewater creates biofilm in pipes. Wastewater contains many microorganisms and other materials that make the pipes particularly susceptible to biofilm formation. Biofilm is an aggregate of microorganisms, ... -
OSLO 2019: A Car-free City Centre
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In June 2016, a climate and energy strategy for Oslo was enacted by the city council. The overall climate targets adopted for Oslo 2030–2050 were to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% (2030) and to zero in 2050. To ... -
Moisture buffering, energy potential, and volatile organic compound emissions of wood exposed to indoor environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The use of wood in built environments has been increasing during the last decades, and more focus has been set on the influence of wood surfaces on indoor environments on the objective and subjective measures of human ... -
