Utilisation a waste of stone processing in production of other kinds products is an actual task for stone-cutting enterprises. In this study, the possibilities of using basalt dust generated during sawing, grinding and polishing of basalt and related minerals in the manufacture with concrete are studied. Three groups were prepared with different content of basalt dust - 0 %, 5 % and 20 %. After the final hardening performance of the concrete, the compressive strength testing was conducted on the specimens. The results showed that the addition (5%) added basalt dust practically did not reduce the strength ratio practically, the increase of basalt dust content up to 20% caused an average 16% reduction in the strength of the specimens. The fracture character that occurred in the specimens containing basalt dust corresponded to the fracture character that happened to similarly shaped concrete products.

Welding is the main method of joining plate steel. Its use leads to significant residual welding stresses. Residual stress can significantly affect the load-bearing capacity of long-span steel bridges. In this work, a finite element calculation of residual welding stresses of steel sheets up to 100 mm thick was carried out, and the distribution of surface residual stresses and the influence of sheet thickness on the residual surface stress were identified.

Heat treatment of concrete, along with steaming, is one of the main methods for accelerating the hardening of concrete and achieving its transfer, stripping and design strength. These concrete processing technologies are more often used in factories in the manufacture of mass-produced concrete and reinforced concrete products in curing chambers of periodic and continuous action, under portable hoods on stands and other installations, or in special thermoforms, thermal packs, cassettes, etc. However, there is an increasing need acceleration of concrete strength gain at the construction site at the time of construction and installation works associated with new construction, repair or reconstruction of existing buildings. The aim of the study is to study the acceleration of the strength development of concrete subjected to heat treatment using the energy of an electromagnetic field of microwave frequencies. The article presents the results of an experimental study of concrete samples for compression treated with microwave energy and the control group of samples gaining strength in natural conditions. The experimental data obtained indicate an increase in the strength of the treated concrete samples by 72.94% on day 1, by 27.83% on day 2, by 14.23% on day 3, and by 1.1% on day 7 in comparison with samples not subjected to microwave exposure. From the 14th day, a gradual drop in strength begins in comparison with the samples not subjected to heating with the help of electromagnetic fields, so on the 14th day the strength of the treated concrete samples decreased by 2.45%, on the 21st day by 32.17%, on the 28th day by 25.61%. As a result of the analysis of the obtained experimental data, it was concluded that microwave exposure to the concrete solution significantly increases the strength of concrete in the early stages, but negatively affects the design strength of concrete as a whole.

Factors affecting the limited mineral resources of the planet and requiring the expansion of the raw material base of the construction industry are considered. The negative impact of overburden dumps on the ecological state of the habitat was noted. The importance of their processing into a useful product was emphasized in connection with the need to implement the industry program of the Russian Federation ""Involvement of overburden and containing rocks classified as production waste in economic circulation for 2022-2030."" The properties of sand and opoka as raw materials for making foam concrete were analyzed. The result of the analysis made it possible to formulate a list of restrictions, as a result of which it is undesirable to use opoku in concrete of a cast-in-place structure and a list of reasons, based on which it is possible to predict the feasibility of its use in foam concrete. The results of experimental studies are presented, reflecting the influence of the individual properties of sand and opoka on the density of foam concrete mixtures, the density of solidified foam concrete and the kinetics of their plastic strength during three hours of hardening from which it follows that replacing sand with opoka allows significantly improving the technological properties of foam concrete mixtures without compromising the achievement of their design density. It follows from the analysis of experimental data that the structural features of the foam concrete mixtures have a positive effect on the technological properties of foam concrete mixtures, which accelerate the gain of plastic strength of foam concrete mixtures after their placement into molds. The most important reason for the achieved result should be considered mesopores located in the volume of dispersed particles of aggregate from opoka. The established scientific facts make it possible to predict the expanded use of overburden rock - opoki in order to save resources in the construction industry and construction.

The influence of the type and dosage of some redispersible polymer powders on the shrinkage deformation of building mortars obtained from dry building mixes, including for underfloor heating, after exposure at a temperature of 70 ° C in accordance with GOST R 56387-2018 was investigated. The introduction of admixtures 4042N, E06RA, 5603 into the mixtures did not lead to an increase in shrinkage deformations when maintained according to GOST R 56387-2018 relative to the additive-free standard, regardless of the type and dosage of the admixture, while with these admixtures, regardless of their dosage, within 1-3%, the values of shrinkage deformations were less than 1.5 mm / m. The greatest influence of the type and dosage of the redispersed polymer powders on the shrinkage change is manifested at the heating stage, which is due to their influence on the kinetics of dehydration and the magnitude of the E-modulus. Depending on the type of cement, type and dosage of the admixture, the moisture loss values by the end of heating to 70oC ranged from 0.114 to 0.629 relative to the total moisture loss by the end of holding. Naturally, a change in shrinkage by the end of heating from 0.027 to 0.595 relative to complete shrinkage by the end of aging was noted, while a proportional relationship between moisture loss and shrinkage was revealed. In some formulations, an expansion of up to 0.469 mm/m was recorded by the end of heating. For a comprehensive assessment of the degree of influence of admixtures on changes in the deformation and strength properties of mortar at a holding temperature of 70 ° C according to GOST R 56387-2018, an indicator of the conditional stress level is proposed, varying depending on the holding stage, type of cement, type and dosage of the additive in the range from 0.489 to 3.05.

To create composite building materials with a polymer matrix, various fillers of both plant (wood-polymer composites - WPC) and mineral (mineral-polymer composites - MPC) origin can be used. The article evaluates the feasibility of using twelve different minerals in MPC from the standpoint of strength, cost and weight of the resulting materials in comparison with similar indicators of WPC. By sequentially considering each of the evaluated parameters, the sample of fillers is reduced by excluding combinations with characteristics worse than those of the reference material - a wood-polymer binary composite consisting of wood flour and polypropylene. It has been shown that one of the most effective mineral fillers can be waste from construction industry enterprises, as well as structures recycled during the demolition of buildings and structures.

The analysis of the dependences of the "flexural strength – compressive strength" of ordinary concretes obtained as a result of processing numerous experimental data of the authors and borrowed from published works, as well as data presented in various regulatory documents is presented. Based on the obtained regression equations describing the dependence of the flexural strength of concrete on the compressive strength in the compressive strength range from 30 to 100 MPa, it is concluded that it is advisable to normalize the classes of flexural strength without taking into account the prescription features of concrete. Some inconsistency of the ratios of classes for flexural strength and compression in the analyzed regulatory documents has been revealed. The high reliability of the previously obtained dependence of the flexural strength of concrete on the compressive strength has been confirmed. A formula is proposed that takes into account the effect of the addition of silica fume in the composition of the concrete mixture on the ratio of flexural strength and compression. The role of the quality of aggregates in ensuring high flexural strength of concrete is noted.

In this paper, the analysis of technical solutions in the manufacturing technology of concreted pipes is considered. When constructing underwater crossings, the most reliable and effective method of ballasting is the method involving the use of pipes with a solid concrete coating. Concrete coatings, among other things, provide protection of the main pipeline from mechanical damage, as well as from the effects of an aggressive environment. The compositions of fine-grained concrete for concreting the surface of steel pipes using non-recycled waste of steel wire rope or pipe production are proposed. It has been established that the use of these wastes in certain dosages contributes to an increase in the strength of concrete, high frost resistance while reducing the amount of expensive heavy aggregates.

Products made of gypsum binders have heat and sound insulation properties, fire resistance, high technical, economic and environmental indicators, which are used in construction in the construction of internal walls and partitions, the total area of which, as a rule, is several times larger than the area of external walls. By reducing the density of gypsum products due to the introduction of light aggregates, it is possible to reduce the mass of walls, lighten the building, reduce the load on foundations and reduce the cost of construction, while improving thermal protection. However, traditional lightweight fillers increase the water demand of the mixture and reduce the strength of the material. Therefore, in the article, the purpose of the study was to determine the optimal composition of gypsum compositions with various types of filler to obtain the best set of properties of the obtained samples.

The article considers the use of collapsible road surfaces on temporary roads and develops a method for substantiating the composition of a set of collapsible road surfaces, the use of which will ensure the construction of a section of highway in the most likely conditions, such as entrances to construction sites, as wooden roads and even bridges, approaches to the bridge, detours of main roads during construction. the proposed method of substantiating the composition of a set of collapsible pavement allows you to calculate the composition of the set not only taking into account its weight and size characteristics, but also the conditions of use. The main of these conditions is the uncertainty of the length of the sections of the highway that require the use of the SRDP. In contrast to the existing ones, the proposed method allows to reduce the influence of uncertainty and obtain the composition of the kit, the use of which will ensure the construction of a section of the highway in the most likely conditions.

The assumptions of mathematical models for calculating the crack resistance of reinforced concrete structures are considered. For each of them, an analysis was carried out to determine whether they correspond to reality throughout the entire life cycle of the structure: from the hardening of the concrete mix to destruction. Based on the results of the analysis, it was proposed to use only one single calculation at the level of standards to assess the crack resistance of structures - according to the crack opening width, acrc. So, for example, at a certain value of acrc, the structure will still remain airtight (the cracks will be non-through), and if this value is exceeded, it will not. At the same time, the calculations already available in the norms for limiting permeability and the safety of reinforcement will still remain in demand. At the junction of the theory of damage accumulation and nonlinear fracture mechanics, a compressed algorithm is proposed for possibly taking into account the influence of cracks at all scale levels of the concrete structure, the key for which is the normalization of the statistical parameters of the distribution of discontinuities by diameters, lengths, openings, depths, directions, distances between discontinuities, etc.

An approach is proposed to determine the parameters of concreting flat massive foundation slabs - the operational performance of the concrete mix supplier, vehicles and concrete pump, taking into account the limiting factors - the intensity of the supply and placement of the concrete mix and the time of overlapping layers. A scheme for determining the overall coefficient of operational performance is proposed. As a result of timing, the values ​​of the transition coefficient from technical to operational productivity, respectively, for a concrete mixer truck with a volume of 10 m3 from 0.54 to 0.65 and 0.41 for a concrete pump truck with a technical productivity of 120 m3 / h, respectively, were determined when concreting a massive flat foundation slab with a volume of 1500 m3 using concrete mix with grade P4 for workability at a delivery distance of up to 50 m. It is proposed to consider a coefficient that takes into account the decrease in the productivity of an autoconcrete pump due to the variability of the concrete mix supply mode as the main reserve for increasing operational productivity. Schemes are given for determining the duration of concreting a structure without technological interruptions, both with an equal thickness of the stacked layers, and with different schemes for assigning the thicknesses of the stacked layers. The inexpediency of erecting such structures with a layer overlapping time of less than 4 hours is shown. The approach considered in the work can be used to select rational methods for concreting such structures in a continuous pattern or with division into temperature-shrinkage blocks and the construction of working joints. The latter scheme, in connection with the problem of ensuring the quality of the seams and the solidity of the structure, seems to be less preferable.

The paper presents the results of research on the development of the composition of the raw mixture for the production of facing composite material for construction purposes. The composition of the raw material mixture included a brick fight as a filler, waste products from non-plasticized polyvinyl chloride as a binder and methylene chloride for dissolving polymer waste. This composition allows mixing and pressing without heating, which eliminates the possibility of destruction of the polymer component. After pressing, heat treatment is carried out at the solvent evaporation temperature. The paper shows the dependences of the main physical and mechanical characteristics of the resulting material on the degree of filling. The maximum amount of filler has been set, which allows to obtain the material without a lack of binder. With a lack of binder, a decrease in strength and an excess of the proportion of open pores over closed ones were observed. According to the results of the experiments, the polymer : solvent ratio and the degree of filling were selected, allowing to obtain a material with the maximum value of strength characteristics. Practical application of the developed composition of the raw mixture will allow complex utilization of low-demand and large-tonnage polymer and brick waste to obtain composite material for cladding buildings and structures.

The article deals with the problem of disposal of the sludge formed after the treatment of wastewater at the production of chemical fibers. Sludge after sedimentation is stored in storages and pollutes the environment. We carried out a comparative analysis of existing methods of disposal of sewage sludge from chemical production, which showed that the most environmentally friendly way is pyrolysis. We have analyzed the chemical and fractional composition of ash sludge after pyrolysis. The analysis revealed that the resulting ash waste is similar to ash from coal-fired power plants, which makes it possible to use it as a microfill for paving roads or sidewalks. By selling the ash waste it is possible to reduce the payback period of the pyrolysis unit installation and reduce the ecological load on the environment.
