“…Indicator reliability is defined as ''a variable or set of variables is consistent regarding what it intends to measure'' (Urbach Frederik, 2010, p.18). Reflective loadings of 0.708 and above are recommended (L. Liu et al, 2020;Urbach Frederik, 2010). Table 2 shows the findings of the reflective measurement model.…”

The use of technology to provide contextual information for decision-making has been a long-standing practice. The study aims to identify the antecedents influencing tourists’ use of context-aware applications. It employs the Unified Model of Electronic Government Adoption (UMEGA) and the Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) to investigate tourists’ behaviors in the use of Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs) during the pre-adoption and post-adoption stages at the Mole National Park in Ghana. Data was analyzed using Smart PLS 3.0 software. The findings suggest that pre-adoption performance expectancy, motivational needs, and personal situation significantly affect tourists’ pre-adoption intentions to continue using context-aware applications. In addition, information recommendation, service quality, confirmation expectation, and satisfaction influenced continued use and recommendation. However, social influence and enjoyment experience did not significantly impact tourists’ behavioral intentions. The findings contribute to theory by integrating components of the two models (UMEGA & ECM) and delving into the antecedents of users’ decision-making processes.

Every structure necessitates a table to live a system of battling highest forces caused by wind speed or heavy earthquakes. One of the premium preparations has to share the representation of structural elements that holds the arrangement of earthquake loads together. When the trouble of the tallness of the structure is superior than before they turn out to be greater as well as the addition of tempting additions to oppose systems such as truss contains of shear wall is essential. If the live load present in the structure has more, the reduction in the failure of the structural elements will be the main criteria before construction. In this work, some of the studies has presented in which they have introduced different live loadings in multi-storeyed building with seismic loading. Results concluded that it is necessary to perform the live load with highest importance factor as per seismic codal provisions.

“…Additionally, compared with simply supported girder bridges, there are more continuous girder bridges [15]. Structural reliability-based live load factors have been developed by truck load effect statistics using the analytical model of the platoons of trucks and the extrapolation approach, taking a number of temporal maximum values [16].…”

With increasing traffic volume, the traffic load grade given by design codes has gradually increased. For new bridges, there is no problem, and the traffic load can be met through the requirements of the new code. However, for existing bridges, there is a lack of uniform standards on whether they can continue to be used. It is not clear whether these bridges will be judged according to the new code or the original design code. The traffic loading effects of different codes on medium- and small-span girder bridges in China are investigated in this study. Three codes are introduced: JTJ 021-89, JTG D60-2004, and JTG D60-2015. Simply supported girder bridges and continuous girder bridges are discussed. The traffic loading effects calculated based on JTG D60-2015 are significantly larger than those calculated based on JTJ 021-89. For simply supported girder bridges, most of the differences range from 20% to 40%, and the maximum value is almost larger than 60%. For continuous girder bridges, most of the differences in the positive bending moments are concentrated in the 20%∼40% range, while the differences in the negative bending moments range from 10% to 20%. Therefore, the differences in traffic loading effects calculated based on various codes cannot be ignored in actual bridge engineering. The conclusion in this study can provide a basis for bridge structure evaluation and life prediction.
