Законски оквир као основ за квалитететан план? Лекције о управљању, планирању и комуникацији из 70 година искуства Урбанистичког завода Београда
No full textUrban Planning Institute of Belgrade is celebrating its 70th birthday over the year 2018 by reminding public about its history and achievements. A broad review of its legal and social statuses, important plans and projects, significant individuals and activities accompanying the planning processes of the capital city, shows also the development of the urban planning profession and the City itself. The second rational for the thorough research is the actual state of the urban planning profession, globally and locally. International recommendations and documents have recognized that planning profession is lagging behind the general urban dynamics, namely adjustment to climate change, migrations and the unprecedented urbanization, and just one common solution to challenges has been the frequent change of the planning laws. Analyzing rich Belgrade planning practice since the year 1948 and comparing the actual practice in respond to the demands of the modern times, offers a conclusion that the future of urban planning could be anticipated by relying on planning legacy,but having in mind the capacity of the profession, the institution, and the government to face and accept the change. For the substantial change and adjustment of local planning practice it is necessary to understand the context, to master already gained аnd conquer the new knowledge, and establish the convenient legal framework for the efficient and effective city planning.Урбанистички завод Београда током 2018. године прославља свој седамдесети рођендан
упознајући јавност са својом историјом и достигнућима. Oбиман преглед легалног и друштвеног статуса институције, значајних планова, важних личности и активности које су пратиле процесе планирања, указују нам и на развој урбанистичке професије и самог града Београда. Други повод за обимно истраживање је стање у урбанистичкој делатности у свету и код нас. Међународе препоруке и документи оцењују да планирање тешко хвата корак са убрзаним променама укупног амбијента, посебно климатских промена, миграција и велике урбанизације, а једно од уобичајених решења управа за повећање ефикасности планирања су честе измене закона који уређују ову област.
Анализирајући искуства планирања Београда у периоду од 1948. године до данас и поредећи то велико урбанистичко искуство са захтевима савременог доба, закључили смо да пројекција будућности планирања може да се формира наслањајући се на добру професионалну традицију, уколико постоји капацитет професије, институција и управе да се суоче и прихвате промену. За суштинску промену праксе планирања неопходно је разумевање контекста, утврђивање освојених и савладавање нових знања, као и стварање адекватног правног оквира за ефикасно и сврсисходно планирање града

Sustainable and Resilient Building Design Approaches, Methods and Tools
Get PDFThe challenges to which contemporary building design needs to respond grow steadily. They originate from the influence of changing environmental conditions on buildings, as well as from the need to reduce the impact of buildings on the environment. The increasing complexity requires the continual revision of design principles and their harmonisation with current scientific findings, technological development, and environmental, social, and economic factors. It is precisely these issues that form the backbone of the thematic book, Sustainable and Resilient Building Design: Approaches, Methods, and Tools.
The book starts with the exploration of the origin, development, and the state-of-the-art notions of environmental design and resource efficiency. Subsequently, climate change complexity and dynamics are studied, and the design strategy for climate-proof buildings is articulated. The investigation into the resilience of buildings is further deepened by examining a case study of fire protection. The book then investigates interrelations between sustainable and resilient building design, compares their key postulates and objectives, and searches for the possibilities of their integration into an outreaching approach. The fifth article in the book deals with potentials and constraints in relation to the assessment of the sustainability (and resilience) of buildings. It critically analyses different existing building certification models, their development paths, systems, and processes, and compares them with the general objectives of building ratings. The subsequent paper outlines the basis and the meaning of the risk and its management system, and provides an overview of different visual, auxiliary, and statistical risk assessment methods and tools.
Following the studies of the meanings of sustainable and resilient buildings, the book focuses on the aspects of building components and materials. Here, the life cycle assessment (LCA) method for quantifying the environmental impact of building products is introduced and analysed in detail, followed by a comprehensive comparative overview of the LCA-based software and databases that enable both individual assessment and the comparison of different design alternatives. The impact of climate and pollution on the resilience of building materials is analysed using the examples of stone, wood, concrete, and ceramic materials. Accordingly, the contribution of traditional and alternative building materials to the reduction of negative environmental impact is discussed and depicted through different examples.
The book subsequently addresses existing building stock, in which environmental, social, and economic benefits of building refurbishment are outlined by different case studies. Further on, a method for the upgrade of existing buildings, described as ‘integrated rehabilitation’, is deliberated and supported by best practice examples of exoskeleton architectural prosthesis. The final paper reflects on the principles of regenerative design, reveals the significance of biological entities, and recognises the need to assign to buildings and their elements a more advanced role towards natural systems in human environments
The topological principles in the contemporary architectural design process
Get PDFContinuing a chronological line of mutual influences of architecture and geometry, where
geometry is perceived as an inextricable part of the syntax of architectural space, this paper
focuses on the clarification of a specific position which mathematical topology takes within
contemporary architectural discourse. The understanding of topology within architectural
design process is based on the mathematical theoretical framework in which the term of
continuous deformation of geometric shapes is specified, whose subsequent occurrence in
architectural creative work is linked to the increasing use of digital tools in design process and
the shift of the dominant philosophical influences in architectural theoretical research. In
order to completely perceive the topological method, the theoretical framework ranges
between the area of architectural theory of form and architectural design theory, firstly
through the explanation of three basic design principles of topological method: deformability,
openness and continuity, and secondly through the representation of the models through
which the principles occur in the architectural design process. The first part of this work will
introduce and analyse the transition of concepts of deformability, openness and continuity,
from mathematical topology through philosophy to architecture emphasizing the
computational shift in architectural design, while the second part of the work will explain the
modalities through which the principles are applied in several architectural design practices.
Generally, the paper is conducted in order to determine whether the development of the
topological method, as a creative tendency, resulted in forming a unique design strategy due
to transformations and adaptations through some authorial design approaches. The topological
method design strategy, which involves a complete design approach, is identified as a result
of an in-depth research of distinguished methods through three case studies, taking into
consideration the complexity of topology within the mathematical area and a complex
transition towards the area of architectural theory. The final question returns to the primarily
theoretical framework, seeking to set operating platform for development and use of three
strategic principles, which simultaneously indicate the possible directions of future
development

архитектуре из XIX века, као и активацију и умрежавање постојећих јавних простора, који тренутно функционишу независно и као одвојени сегменти.
Успостављање њиховог континуитета и повезаности, вишеструко доприноси подизању квалитета и урбаног идентитета предметног подручја, не само
у односу на непосредно окружење и контактно подручје, већ и у односу на шире окружење и туристички потенцијал града Ивањице. Основни циљ је
стварање јединствене аутентичне амбијенталне целине у контексту слике града, односно утиска простоно-програмске обједињености и целовитости.The urbanistic and architectural solution aims to preserve and improve the existing urban identity of the urban framework, authentic architecture from the 19th
century, as well as the activation and networking of existing public spaces, which currently function independently and as separate segments. Establishing their
continuity and connectivity, it contributes in many ways to raising the quality and urban identity of the subject area, not only in relation to the direct environment and
contact area, but also in relation to the wider environment and tourist potential of the city of Ivanjica. The main goal is to create a unique authentic ambience in the
context of the image of the city, that is, the impression of spatial-programmatic unification and integrity

A Novel Approach for the Selection of Power-Generation Technology Using a Linguistic Neutrosophic CODAS Method: A Case Study in Libya
Get PDFRapid increases in energy demand and international drive to reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuels have led many oil-rich countries to diversify their energy portfolio and resources. Libya is one of these countries, and it has recently become interested in utilizing its renewable-energy resources in order to reduce financial and energy dependency on oil reserves. This paper introduces an original multicriteria decision-making Pairwise-CODAS model in which the modification of the CODAS method was made using Linguistic Neutrosophic Numbers (LNN). The paper also suggests a new LNN Pairwise (LNN PW) model for determining the weight coefficients of the criteria developed by the authors. By integrating these models with linguistic neutrosophic numbers, it was shown that it is possible to a significant extent to eliminate subjective qualitative assessments and assumptions by decision makers in complex decision-making conditions. The LNN PW-CODAS model was tested and validated in a case study of the selection of optimal Power-Generation Technology (PGT) in Libya. Testing of the model showed that the proposed model based on linguistic neutrosophic numbers provides objective expert evaluation by eliminating subjective assessments when determining the numerical values of criteria. A sensitivity analysis of the LNN PW-CODAS model, carried out through 68 scenarios of changes in the weight coefficients, showed a high degree of stability of the solutions obtained in the ranking of the alternatives. The results were validated by comparison with LNN extensions of four multicriteria decision-making models
Urban garden as lived space: Informal gardening practices and dwelling culture in socialist and post-socialist Belgrade
No full textThis paper considers urban gardens as lived spaces which have an important role in reconnecting with nature in an urban environment, but also as an archive of concepts related to culture and everyday life. In this context, the paper studies the character of three of Belgrade's urban gardens and their contribution to the quality of everyday life in the large-scale socialist residential settlements built during the 1970s. Focus is placed on establishing relations between the dwelling culture, social and cultural needs and changes, and the dominant architectural and planning paradigms of modernism and post-modernism. Belgrade's urban gardens were created and developed spontaneously (most often non-legally) as self-organized citizens' acts. Research presented in our case studies confirms the paper's initial assumption that the urban gardens in Belgrade are still considered marginal and certainly not representative urban practices, overshadowed by the planned urban conceptions and sociopolitical actions. In this sense, we may notice the lack of a systematic approach to managing these gardens, and complete absence of legislation either provided by authorities, private or public bodies or even associations. Although the urban gardens emerged in socialism outside of any rules and regulations, they promoted the values of an active relationship between the user, dwelling culture and immediate residential surroundings, and contributed to improving the dwelling culture of the "new working class" in the socialist dwelling units. Also, the gardens were not only a place for producing food in financially difficult times, especially during the post-socialist transition of the 1990s, but above all a place associated with socialization and a "sense of home". Recognizing the benefits of urban gardens and accordingly raising awareness about this concept in the city, together with the adoption of appropriate regulations, would certainly be of immense relevance to urban gardening and generally landscape quality in Serbia
Thermal comfort of pedestrian spaces and the influence of pavement materials on warming up during summer
No full textPublic space is very valuable for a variety of community activities. Open public space comfort is one of the main indicators that provide its enjoyability, attractiveness and liveability. Having in mind that the climate conditions and the implemented urban design are influential in providing pedestrian thermal comfort, this study will focus on physical attributes of used pavement materials and their impact when they are exposed to high summer temperatures as well as on thermal comfort of the users of open public spaces. The methods that were used in the analysis include the method of direct surveying of inhabitants, the method of observation and the method of measuring the characteristics of different materials used for pavement in the pedestrian zone. The measuring of the current surface temperature of different paving materials used for pedestrian zone was performed during the summer season (July, August, and September) of 2015 in the central city zone of the city of Nis, with the goal of determining the maximum heating up of horizontal surfaces, i.e. pavements. The survey was done in July 2015 in the main square in. Nis. The measuring determined that in the same conditions, various materials yield various maximum temperatures. It was also concluded that the type of material, colour, roughness and shading of an area affect the heating up of pedestrian surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the complexity of the relationship between microclimate thermal comfort in public open spaces and the measured temperature of the pavement surface, and to emphasize the importance of this relationship in the context of contemporary urban design. The paper presents the case study of pedestrian spaces in the central area of the City of Nis in Serbia
