STABILIZATION OF SUBSIDENCE OF BUILDINGS OF MODERN MEDICAL CENTERS

the group of deformed structures includes buildings that have received unacceptable subsidence and deformation during the period of their construction and especially operation, which, however, do not interfere with the perfor-mance of their main functions, but may eventually collapse. Their causes are errors in engineering and geological surveys and design; violation of the rules for performing construction work and operation of buildings and struc-tures. Long-term geodetic observations of the precipitation of the foundations of buildings on pile foundations have shown that both absolute and relative stabilized values of subsidence in the vast majority of cases are less than them and the normative limit values are calculated. Therefore, the group of deformed buildings on pile foun-dations includes somewhat less often similar objects with shallow foundations. The reasons for excessive subsid-ence of the foundations of pile foundations of buildings (and as a result, the occurrence and development of cracks and other deformations in load – bearing structures), in addition to these, are most often: unjustified use of increasing correction coefficients for the results of compression tests of highly acidic soils; the lower ends of the piles falling into layers of weak soil; the tip of the piles sinking from the design mark; overestimation of the bear-ing capacity of the piles due to non-compliance with the optimal time of their "rest" after immersion or erroneous interpretation of the graphs "load-pile sediment"; excessively close placement of neighboring piles in the plan, which when they are immersed, especially in the sand, leads to "pushing" up previously submerged; uneven load-ing of piles as part of the grillage; deformation of existing buildings and structures when driving piles near and tongue-and-groove, the development of pits, etc.

THE INFLUENCE OF FORCED CARBONIZATION ON THE PROPERTIES OF GYPSUM-LIME SYSTEMS BASED ON SECONDARY RAW MATERIALS

the use of secondary raw materials for the production of building materials is a modern trend in solving environmental problems. In the Republic of Crimea, dumps of secondary raw materials – phosphogypsum and lime dust – have accumulated in large quantities at various enterprises. The analysis of phosphogypsum, which has been in the dumps for more than 5 years, showed that by its quality indicators it can be attributed to the 2nd grade in accordance with GOST 4013-2019, and the specific effective activity of the material (Aeff) corresponds to the I class of materials, which makes it suitable for the production of gypsum binders. Prototypes-cylinders were made from a mixture of phosphogypsum with lime dust of 1:1 composition at a pressure of 30 MPa and then subjected to hardening according to three schemes, in order to separate the passage of various types of hardening and study each of them for the physico-mechanical properties of the resulting material. The analysis of experimental data made it possible to establish the effectiveness of simultaneous flow in the system of two types of hardening – carbonate and hydration for lime and phosphogypsum components of the raw mixture, respectively. As a result of the organization of a mixed type of hardening of gypsum-lime binder, samples with a compressive strength of 26.5 MPa and a softening coefficient of 0.63 were obtained within 90 minutes. The calcium carbonate formed in the process, which is the product of the reaction between calcium hydroxide and carbon dioxide, significantly increases the water resistance of the hydration products of gypsum binder. It is established that with an optimal combination of technological factors and hardening conditions, a significant increase in the physical and mechanical characteristics of the carbonized material is possible in a short time.

EXAMINATION OF THE QUALITY OF NANOMATERIALS IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF CIRCULATING RESOURCES IN CONSTRUCTION

the advantage of the equality indicator is the relative simplicity of definition and the possibility of periodic moni-toring. According to the equality indicator, it is possible to assign repairs and predict the service life, assess the condition of the road surface. Experimental studies have proved that there is a connection between the evenness of the coating and the strength of the pavement, which opens up the possibility of determining the structural strength of non-rigid pavement, which provides a given evenness of the coating for the last year of operation be-fore major repairs. The question of assessing the impact of the unevenness of the road surface on the processes of development and accumulation of deformations, changes in the evenness of the coating during operation remain largely open. This is due to the multifactorial nature of the problem of predicting the equality of coverage, so it is advisable to use approaches based on direct measurement methods. Most of the existing models of interaction of a pneumatic or rigid wheel with a coating are designed for problems of pavement mechanics or car theory, therefore they cannot be unambiguously applied to determine the value of the dynamism coefficient. A significant disad-vantage of these solutions is insufficient consideration of the deformative properties (modulus of elasticity) of the pavement.

THE USE OF NANOTECHNOLOGY FOR THE DESIGN OF BUILDING STRUCTURES

Russia has a developed industry of building materials, which today implements an energy- and resource-saving model of its development. The implementation of the state policy of resource conservation is carried out in two main directions: the first direction is to save resources in the production of materials, the second is to increase the production of energy–efficient materials that allow saving energy carriers during their operation. Modern construc-tion in Russia is guided by European construction standards, which, in turn, provides for the construction of ener-gy-saving buildings with minimal energy consumption from external sources. This is ensured by the use of struc-tural and thermal insulation materials in the construction of external walls. In modern structural and thermal insu-lation materials for energy-saving construction, high requirements are imposed on their thermal properties, me-chanical strength and comfort level. From the point of view of simultaneous satisfaction of these requirements, ceramic materials have obvious advantages over other materials, in particular cellular concretes, which, with al-most the same level of thermal conductivity, are characterized by the least hygroscopicity and significantly greater strength. An objective prospect for the development of structural and thermal insulation ceramics is the production of hollow ceramic stones with increased thermal efficiency for their use in economical single-layer external wall structures without additional insulation. The products of individual Ukrainian manufacturers and even imported analogues of the most famous European manufacturer (Wiernerberger Company, Austria), when used in single-layer walls, do not provide regulatory requirements for the heat transfer resistance of masonry for the first temper-ature zone of Russia, which occupies the majority of the territory (60%). This requires the improvement of domes-tic products in the direction of improving their thermal characteristics (reducing thermal conductivity and increas-ing thermal resistance).

DEVELOPMENT OF A TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS FOR MANUFACTURING WELDED STRUCTURES

the main goal of this article is to obtain welded permanent joints of modern thermally hardened aluminum and aluminum-lithium alloys made by laser welding, having mechanical characteristics (temporary tensile resistance, yield strength, elongation at break) and structural-phase composition close to or equal to the base alloy. It is shown for the first time that by controlling the parameters of heat treatment of samples with a welded joint of all studied aluminum-lithium alloys, it is possible to purposefully influence the formation of the specified mechanical properties of the weld by changing the structural and phase composition of the weld. The evolution of the struc-tural and phase composition of welded joints of thermally hardened aluminum and aluminum-lithium alloys has been investigated using modern independent diagnostic methods: for the first time, the use of synchrotron radia-tion diffractometry in combination with high-resolution transmission, scanning electron and optical microscopy. The dependences of the increment of deformation under cyclic loading with amplitudes exceeding the elastic limit on temperature are established. For untreated welded joints, it was found that at +85 C, the inhomogeneity of the deformation increment increases, and its speed increases by 8 times for alloy 1461, 5 times for alloy 1420 and 1.5 times for alloy 1441. At a temperature of -60 0C, alloys 1420 and 1461 have hardening stages, during which the value of deformation decreases at given boundary stress values. At +20 0C, there is a uniform increment of defor-mation and an increase in the amplitude of deformation with an increase in the amplitude of stress. At +85 0C, the strain amplitude does not change with increasing stress amplitude, its value is 0.55-0.5 of the strain amplitude at +20 0C. Based on the research results, technological techniques have been developed that allow obtaining me-chanical characteristics and structural-phase compositions of welded joints close to the main alloy during laser welding of aviation thermally hardened aluminum and aluminum-lithium alloys of the Al-Mg-Cu. Al-Mg-Li, Al-Cu-Mg-Li, Al-Cu-Li systems.

EFFECT OF THE CURING CONDITIONS ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF CITROGYPSUM-CONTAINING ALKALI-ACTIVATED BINDERS

when hardening the binder system and it transforms into a consolidated conglomerate, the efficiency of the for-mation of the structural framework and the main operational characteristics of the final product dramatically de-pend on the thermal and humidity conditions of the environment medium, where the binder or raw material is con-solidated. In this study, various conditions of hardening of binders with alkaline activation of various composi-tions were studied. Based on the literature analysis, the following were chosen as the hardening conditions for the experimental alkali-activated systems: 1) - thermal drying, which was carried out in an oven at a temperature of 60°C for 24 hours; 2) hardening in ambient laboratory conditions, at a temperature of 23 ± 2°C, relative humidity - 33 ± 2%. An aqueous solution of alkali NaOH and salt Na2SiO3 were used as alkaline activators. The resulted data of the change in the average density showed that when using an alkaline activator, heat drying promotes the compaction of the hardened composite (typical for both types of the alkaline component) by 5 and 7 % for NaOH and Na2SiO3, respectively. The absence of alkaline activators in the experimental samples leads to decompaction of the structure after exposure to thermal drying and a decrease in the average density to 18%. The experimental results showed that thermal drying contributes to an increase in the strength parameters of experimental samples of an alkali-activated binder using Na2SiO3 to 110% (from 1.9 to 4 MPa). For the rest of the samples, a significant decrease in strength is observed (more than 2 times). A visual analysis of experimental samples of alkali-activated binders showed that the binders containing the addition of citrogypsum showed clear signs of efflorescence in the case of their hardening in ambient laboratory conditions. At the same time, for similar compositions from a series of samples hardened under thermal drying conditions, there is a complete absence of this phenomenon

DYNAMIC CALCULATION OF THE PLANE ELASTIC "DAM-FOUNDATION" SYSTEM

design, construction, and reliable and safe operation of earth dams (more than 60 of them are in operation in the Republic of Uzbekistan located in seismic region) put forward requirements for the continuous improvement of the calculation methods for loads; as required by regulatory methods for fundamental (static) and special (dynamic) load combinations. These regulatory methods do not take into account the nonhomogeneous nature of the behavior and piecewise heterogeneity of the characteristics of foundation, and the stress-strain state (SSS) of an earth dam under constant or temporary loads, which is necessary for reliable and safe operation, especially in seismic regions. A general mathematical formulation of problems for earth dams in a plane elastic formulation is given. Dynamic calculations were conducted to determine the stress-strain state of an earth dam, taking into account the design features and real piecewise-nonhomogeneous physical and mechanical characteristics of soil of the structure body and base (these characteristics were provided by the design organization). The problem was solved by the numerical finite element method. The eigenfrequencies and modes of vibrations of the plane "structure-foundation" system are determined, considering the homogeneous and piecewise-nonhomogeneous characteristics of the foundation soil; the corresponding analysis of the behavior of the system was made. The stress-strain state of the “dam-foundation” system was investigated using calculated frequencies. The calculation results were lines of equal displacements (horizontal, vertical), normal and shear stresses in the “dam-foundation” system.

STRUCTURE FORMATION OF C-S-H FROM THE POSITION OF MICROMECHANICS OF COMPOSITE MEDIA

the creation of an environmentally friendly building material to protect the human environment can only be carried out from the position of a transdisciplinarity approach, taking into account modern achievements in geomimetics and micromechanics of composite media. A wide range of basalt-fiber-reinforced concrete based on composite binders has been developed, which have increased characteristics of impermeability and durability under extreme operating conditions. The nature of the influence of the composition and manufacturing technology of cement composites on the pore structure of the composite has been established, which has a positive effect on the charac-teristics of gas, water and vapor permeability. High early strength was obtained, which allows the use of materials for operational repair and construction in emergency situations. The positive influence of the composition of the developed composite on the performances has been proved. The water resistance of the modified composite provides a water pressure of 2 MPa for 148 hours, which corresponds to the W18 grade (for the control sample – W8), the frost resistance grade – F300. It was found that the water absorption of the modified concrete samples was lower than that of the control sample, which is explained by the decrease in the pore structure index λ by 28.4 times, and the average pore diameter by 3.05 times. The total pore volume of the modified concrete was lower and decreased with increasing dose of nanosilica.

INFLUENCE OF MATERIAL STRUCTURE ON THE MAGNETOSTRICTIVE PROPERTIES OF A RADIATOR FOR DEFROSTING HEAT EXCHANGERS OF VENTILATION EQUIPMENT

the article deals with the properties of ferromagnetics and their behaviour in an external magnetic field. The conditions under which magnetism occurs in materials are shown and the choice of material for a magneto-strictive emitter is justified. The composition and properties of permendur as the most suitable material for the manufacture of magnetostrictive radiators are presented. It is shown that for the manufacture of the magnetostrictor it is feasible to use electro-erosion equipment for cutting packages from permendur com-pared to the costly and cumbersome method of stamping in a matrix of a particular shape. Tests were carried out on a duralumin heat exchanger with artificial frostbite. The evaporator was fed with refrigerant at 0.22 MPa, which corresponds to the boiling point of R 410a refrigerant at 35°C, by means of a refrigerant line made of aluminium pipes. Frostbite was then produced by applying moist air using an ultrasonic steam gen-erator. Frost on the evaporator surface is discharged by means of a magnetostrictor mounted on the heat ex-changer. The proposed method allows for the most effective cleaning of the surfaces of heat exchangers of ventilation equipment from scale, fouling and other mechanical deposits by means of mechanical vibrations.

GTS NX allows you to perform calculations of various types of geotechnical problems and solve complex geotechnical problems in a single software envi-ronment. GTS NX covers the entire range of engineering and geotechnical projects, including calculations of the "base-structure" system, deep pits with various mounting options, tunnels of complex shape, consolida-tion and filtration calculations, as well as calculations for dynamic actions and stability calculations. At the same time, all types of calculations in GTS NX can be performed both in 2D and in 3D. The author does not claim to be the author of the finite element method, but he cannot do without pointing out the basic equa-tions, as this affects the definition of the boundaries of use, the formulation of algorithms for constructing calculation schemes and the analysis of calculation results.
