  • On the use of acoustic suspended ceilings with a low height of attachment

    Suspended ceilings constructions can improve the sound insulation of air and impact noise in civil buildings. To minimize the volume of the room, two types of suspended acoustic ceilings are most often used. They are: with the attachment of the structural shell of the ceiling close to the floor slab, and at a low suspension height. The influence of the slab's surface density on the correction to the sound insulation, which is created by the suspended ceiling, both in the first and in the second type, is considered. A method for a correction calculation for the sound insulation due to a suspended ceiling in these cases is given. At a minimum height the method is based on taking into account acoustic power's radiation coefficient of the shell. While for the low suspension height the method deals with the vibration's transmission from the floor slab to the ceiling's shell through the air layer and through the metal fasteners, that in this case become acoustic bridges. As a result, the formula of frequency response for sound pressure lowering, due to the sustained ceiling structure, is obtained. The influence of plasterboard suspended ceiling's perforation on the sound insulation of the entire floor structure is evaluated.

  • Determination of the period and form of natural vibrations of buildings and structures under seismic impact, taking into account the flexibility of the foundation

    The article presents a method for determining the dynamic characteristics (period and form of natural vibrations) of buildings and structures, taking into account the flexibility of the foundation under seismic impact. This also takes into account the uneven settlement during the construction of structures on various soils. The total displacement of the mass of the structure under seismic effects, taking into account the compliance of the base, is recorded as the sum of displacements from shear and rotation. In addition, a coefficient is introduced into the calculation, which is the mode of vibration of a rigidly embedded system. The formulas obtained can be used to create a mathematical model of the joint work of the "foundation - structure" system.

  • Natural factors taken into account in the reconstruction of roads

    The article discusses the natural factors that should be taken into account when designing highways. The following factors have a significant impact on the design of roads: terrain, engineering-geological and hydrogeological structure, climate, etc. The variety of natural factors is taken into account comprehensively in the design. They also take into account the negative impact of road construction on the environment. The terrain has an impact on fundamental engineering decisions, the volume of construction work, and ultimately not only on the construction cost of the highway and transport operating costs. In relation to the design of roads, there are five categories of terrain according to the complexity of road construction. Depending on the geological conditions, sometimes an extension of the highway route is used or expensive engineering measures are provided. It should be borne in mind that the use of the latest materials, road structures and new techniques for the production of construction areas is becoming less and the problems of seasonality of road reconstruction are becoming less relevant.

  • Comparison of survivability of various types of steel archic structures

    Arched constructions of the roofs of span-type buildings are very cost-effective in comparison with beam and frame systems. In many cases, the high architectural qualities of arch structures allow one to obtain expressive interiors of large halls.

  • Comparison of statically undetectable prestressed reinforced concrete trusses

    For the statically indeterminate systems under consideration, there is an optimal ratio between the load-bearing capacity of stretched and out-of-center compressed elements, in which the required reliability will be provided at the lowest value of the mathematical expectation of an external destructive load. It should also be noted that for statically indeterminate systems, the beginning of rebar fluidity is not a sign of destruction, but only indicates the beginning of an intensive redistribution of forces in it. Therefore, the values of C, do not refer to the beginning of the rebar flow, but to the complete exhaustion of the load-bearing capacity. The reliability of statically undetectable systems, including prestressed trusses, is always higher, all other things being equal, than that of statically definable systems.

  • Determination of the conditional critical force of flexible strengthened concrete struts reinforced with composite materials

    On the basis of experimental data, it was found that when calculating flexible reinforced concrete racks reinforced with composite materials in the transverse direction, the strength of the elements is underestimated by the norms. The influence of the composite reinforcement is not taken into account when calculating the stiffness D, the conditional critical force Ncrc and the slenderness coefficient η. Experimental data from the experiments carried out showed that the deflections of the reinforced struts were less than similar, not reinforced specimens, therefore, the influence takes place. Based on the analysis of the results of experiments, in the methodology of norms when calculating D, proposals were made that take into account the step of the transverse amplification at different eccentricities of the load application.

  • Improvement of the methodology for plotting a stress-strain diagram for concrete with indirect reinforcement in the form of cross welded mesh

    Setting the indirect reinforcement in the form of cross welded mesh is one of the effective ways to increase the strength and deformation characteristics of compressed concrete. When performing engineering calculations of structures with indirect reinforcement, in order to ensure the required reliability, it is necessary to use the design values of the strength of materials. At the same time, initially the calculation formulas were derived and analyzed for the experimental average strength values, which are significantly higher than the design ones. Based on the results of the calculations, it was found that a simple substitution of the calculated strength values in the formulas leads to an overestimation of the strength and ultimate compressibility values of concrete with indirect reinforcement.
