Overview of the Research on Connections in Composite Frames Consisting of Reinforced Concrete Column and Steel Beam Jinjie Men1, a, Qingxuan Shi1, b and Qi Zhou1, c 1 College of Civil Engineering, Xian University of Architecture and Technology, Xian, China aemail: men2009@163.com, bemail: shiqx@xauat.edu.cn, cemail: zhoudunfu@163.com Keywords: reinforced concrete column and steel beam (RCS); composite structure; composite joint; RCS composite frame Abstract.
So much more should be done to better enable engineers to apply composite steel-concrete structures as cost-effective and reliable alternatives to conventional steel construction.
Beyond these immediate goals, several of the analytical and system design research projects have served as a vehicle to explore improved performance based seismic design and engineering concepts.

Biotic Attack in Claddings of Prefabricated Buildings Darja Kubečková1, a, Vlastimil Matějka2,b, Michal Kraus1,c, Markéta Černá1,d, Jana Kukutschová2,e and Libor Žídek1,f 1 VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava, Faculty of Civil Engineering; Ludvíka Podéště 1875/17, 708 33 Ostrava, Czech Republic 2 VŠB-Technical University of Ostrava, Nanotechnology Centre; 17.
The confocal microscope used for laboratory analyses in material engineering scans the sample gradually and saves the pictures as 3D so that the sample of plaster could be reconstructed properly.
It is obvious that the laboratory analyses play a key role in the present-day material engineering
Experts in material engineering pay much attention to advanced laboratory methods and devices which can detect biotic attack in the contact overcladding of the panel block buildings.

Experimental study on flexural capacity of prestressed RC hollow slabs strengthened by CFRP Bin Jia 1,a, Shaotie Zhu 1,b, Xiao Liu1,c 1School of civil Engineering and Architecture, Southwest University of Science and Technology, Mianyang 621010, China ajiabin216@126.com, b594422067@qq.com, cliuxiao0807@126.com Keywords: Carbon Fiber Sheet; prestressed concrete hollow slab; secondary stress Abstract.
In recent years, the application of carbon fiber reinforced materials in the field of structural engineering is increasing and its development is quite rapidly.
In fact, there exist some degree of difference between experimental conditions and actual engineering, for example, the prestressed concrete hollow slab which needing to reinforce must bear Some or all of the load, in this case, it belongs to secondary stress, up to now, there has few scientific achievements for our reference in this situation.

Performance and benefits evaluation of two water-source heat pump systems for district heating Xiao Chen1, a, Jie Han2,b, Jing Zeng2,c 1 College of Architectural Engineering, Hunan Institute of Engineering, Xiangtan, China, 411104 2 College of Civil Engineering, Hunan University, Changsha, China, 410082 axchen126@126.com, bhanjie@163.com, czengjing@126.com Keywords: district heating; performance and benefits evaluation; water-source heat pump.
Thus, system design engineers should choose the heat pump units with slight decrease in the COP caused by part-load operation.

Field of Interest: Artificial Intelligence Technology Expectation Value Calculation of Grid QoS Parameters Based on Algorithm Prim Liang Kaijian1 , Linfeng Bai 2, Xilong Qu 3 1 School of Application Technology, Hunan Institute of Engineering, Xiangtan 411101, China 2 School of Information Engineering, Henan Institute of Science and Technology, Xinxiang, 453003,China 3 School of Computer Science & Engineering，South China University of Technology，Guangzhou, 510641,China Email:Liangkaijian@sina.com Keywords：：：： grid computing, service matchmaking, QoS parameters, Algorithm Prim Abstract：：：： From the perspective of selecting service by QoS attributes, a computation method of QoS expectation value, which is based on Algorithm Prim, was presented to provide support for selection of service.
This algorithm, like Kruscal algorithm, is also widely used in multitudinous domains such as network, civil engineering and so on to solve many practical problems [11].
