Wetting-front depth followed a power-law relationship with rainfall duration (R2 = 0.95) and a logarithmic relationship with cumulative rainfall (R2 = 0.97). Single short-term heavy rainfall produced limited infiltration, whereas multi-stage sustained rainfall increased infiltration depth to 7 m during the extreme event. Groundwater levels declined slowly by 0.5 m over five years, with no rapid rainfall recharge observed. Simulations showed that when the rainfall intensity/saturated hydraulic conductivity ratio was <1, infiltration depth and wetted-zone water content increased markedly; under equal cumulative rainfall, longer-duration, lower-intensity rainfall promoted deeper infiltration. These results indicate that rainfall duration, intensity, and temporal pattern strongly control infiltration and wetting-front migration in deep loess, whereas groundwater responds slowly because of the thick vadose zone and lack of preferential flow pathways. The findings provide useful data for water-cycle simulation, groundwater assessment, and geological hazard early warning in deep loess regions of the Loess Plateau.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1810085 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1810085 <![CDATA[Comparative study on spatial morphology of Lou Lim Ioc Park in Macau based on space syntax]]> 2026-06-26T00:00:00Z Original Research Junling ZhouShuojia WangXusheng XieXiaowei ChenLinhui HuKuan LiuLing Feng Xie https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1904217 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1904217 <![CDATA[Editorial: Technologies for cleaner and resilient transportation and transit systems]]> 2026-06-25T00:00:00Z Editorial Sakdirat KaewunruenCholachat RujikiatkamjornDan LiKong Fah TeeLapyote Prasittisopin https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1851806 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1851806 <![CDATA[Predicting civil engineering project success with machine learning: benchmarking models on one million projects]]> 2026-06-25T00:00:00Z Original Research Mirvat AbdallahChady El Hachem https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1806678 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1806678 <![CDATA[Experimental study on physical model of pile-soil mechanical behavior of spiral piles regenerated from phosphogypsum-based solid waste]]> 2026-06-24T00:00:00Z Original Research Zeng FanxingJiang WenYang GuangHu WenboChen YinPan JunPan DengXia Yuanyou https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1831309 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1831309 <![CDATA[Hybrid paving and brick blocks: plastic and wood waste for cooler and safer buildings]]> 2026-06-24T00:00:00Z Perspective Arif NuryawanRahmi KarolinaMuhammad Andhika Ramadhan
