Incorporating 50% ITS reduces ITZ width by 35%, confirming microstructural densification. The micromechanical findings suggest optimal ITS and RCA thresholds that may guide sustainable CSM design, although direct macroscopic validation is needed in future work.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1904075 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1904075 <![CDATA[An integrated vision material intelligence framework for infrastructure condition assessment and asset valuation]]> 2026-09-07T00:00:00Z Original Research Hema AsokanGeetha SubbiahKarthiyaini Somasundaram https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1819177 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1819177 <![CDATA[Upcycling CLT production waste: a computational design and fabrication framework and a proof-of-concept demonstrator]]> 2026-09-07T00:00:00Z Original Research László MangliárMarkus Hudert https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1928896 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1928896 <![CDATA[Investigating the relationship between colour and visual perception in campus circulation spaces: a data-informed exploratory framework]]> 2026-09-07T00:00:00Z Original Research Elif SözerEzgi YılmazGökçen Firdevs Yücel Caymaz https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1863270 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1863270 <![CDATA[Evaluation of tsunami inundation characteristics under high tide and sea-level rise conditions in ise and Mikawa Bays, Japan]]> 2026-09-03T00:00:00Z Original Research Reo MinamiMasaya ToyodaShigeru KatoNobuki FukuiTakuya MiyashitaNobuhito MoriSooyoul Kim https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1833980 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fbuil.2026.1833980 <![CDATA[Evaluating the efficacy of risk management practices for generative AI integration in sustainable construction projects: a fuzzy set theory approach]]> 2026-09-03T00:00:00Z Original Research Mohamed Abdelwahab Hassan MohamedM.
