Machine learning prediction and analysis of area-averaged external pressure coefficients for low-rise dual-slope building roofs in a uniform turbulent flow field

Abstract Accurate prediction of roof area-averaged external pressure coefficients ( $${\overline{C}}_{p,A}$$ ) is crucial for low-rise building design. To isolate geometric and turbulence effects from atmospheric wind shear, wind tunnel experiments were conducted under uniform tu...

Asymmetric Dynamic Transmission of International Commodity Price Fluctuations to U.S. Construction Output Prices: A NARDL Analysis of Quarterly Data, 2010–2025

The linkage between construction output prices and international commodity markets has become increasingly pronounced, yet evidence on how commodity price shocks relate to final construction output prices remains limited. Existing studies typically rely on material input cost ind...
