Framework for BIM-Based Simulation of Construction Operations Implemented in a Game Engine (2022)
Journal Article
Osorio-Sandoval, C. A., Tizani, W., Pereira, E., Ninić, J., & Koch, C. (2022). Framework for BIM-Based Simulation of Construction Operations Implemented in a Game Engine. Buildings, 12(8), Article 1199. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings12081199

Construction simulation has been widely used in academia for research purposes. However, it has been neglected by the industry for various reasons, including the amount of data, skills, effort, and time required to develop complex simulation models,...

The behaviour of anchored extended blind bolts in concrete‐filled tubes (2022)
Journal Article
Tizani, W., Cabrera, M., Mahmood, M., Ninic, J., & Wang, F. (2022). The behaviour of anchored extended blind bolts in concrete‐filled tubes. Steel Construction, 15(S1), 51-58. https://doi.org/10.1002/stco.202100037

Extended Hollo-Bolts (EHBs) are blind bolts that have an extended bolt shank ending in an anchor nut. When used with concrete-filled tubes, the extension and the anchor in the concrete serve to enhance significantly the performance of both connection...

Experimental and numerical study on reinforced concrete beam-column joints with diagonal bars: Effects of bonding condition and diameter (2022)
Journal Article
Shen, X., Li, B., Chen, Y. T., & Tizani, W. (2022). Experimental and numerical study on reinforced concrete beam-column joints with diagonal bars: Effects of bonding condition and diameter. Structures, 37, 905-918. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.istruc.2022.01.050

Diagonal bars anchored in beams have been proven to be an effective reinforcement detail for reinforced concrete interior beam-column joints (BCJs) in mitigating the congestion of conventional stirrups without compromising their seismic performance....
