Currently, materials made of cellular concrete are increasingly used in construction. The strength of the cellular blocks depend on their densities. According to the test results, the dependence of the strength of aerated concrete samples on their density was obtained. However, if we reinforce the aerated concrete blocks with fiber, we will get very different values. When reinforcing cellular concrete with fibrillated fiber, the dependence of strength on density varies – the strength of the samples increases 1.8 – 2.4 times, compared with the strength of non-reinforced samples at a constant density. This means that when fiber is included in cellular concrete, blocks of such low grades as D300 - D400 can be used for the construction of load-bearing walls in low-rise construction

Over the last years there is much concern about the quality of execution and selection of the actual documentation in the registration proceeding of the facilities construction turn-over package. There is no exact consolidated catalog of as-built documentation in the new normative and technical literature. Each executive document represents as an application to various sources of regulatory and technical literature. Therefore, the article presents a divided into chapters detailed catalog of as-built documentation for the oil and gas facility construction. An explanation is given for each chapter for which purpose it is formed and what function it has in the general package of as-built documentation. The main aspects of the as-built documentation execution are considered, a list of the documentation and some recommendations on the facility commissioning to the Client are given. Additionally, there is a suggested recommendation on the execution and filling of the package (folders) of the construction as-built documentation. This article recommends a common procedure for filling out and arrangement of the document flow of PTW package and as-built documentation of construction and installation works and the commissioning of the capital construction facilities. The article clearly describes the goals: - Improvement of the quality of as-built documentation execution; - Organization of the process of preparation, making up and verification of the package contents and quality of turnover documentation for construction and installation works; - Conducing the as-built documentation to a uniform style, which provides a high degree of the documents identification and control over the execution of the quality of preparation and completeness of the turnover documentation for works and construction projects; - Making-up of the objects reporting documentation; - Making-up of a document collection of the objects and work performed; - Establishing of universal explanation of the normative requirements by the all participants in the construction process.

Research of models of formation of integration projects on the basis of points of growth reveals a number of important aspects related to the stages and management of their implementation. The focus on the formation and support of growth points essentially excludes the use of unary models in the planning and implementation of projects within the framework of national programs. In order to overcome the limitations imposed by this type of project, various integrative mechanisms are proposed. The peculiarity of the considered binary models describing the integration mechanisms is the preservation of the basic cycle of the project points of growth within the national program. However, the introduction of additional contours in the model with growth accelerators, with related or integrated projects, as well as attracted resources can reduce the risks caused by high rates of development and innovation issues. The integration potential of the binary model with the project of the growth point in the basic circuit generates a dynamic competitive advantage, i.e. a sustainable, increasing advantage over time that is not related to the amount of initial funding. This advantage generates a powerful growth cycle that can provide a significant increase in profitability over a long period of time. The integrative nature of growth point projects should be envisaged already at the planning stage of national programmes with appropriate monitoring and funding instruments.

Modern distributed temperature control systems are used today everywhere, in particular, in the telemetry of oil and gas wells. Thus, when creating a distributed fiber-optic temperature sensor based on Raman scattering (DTS) for these purposes, the problem of improving its metrological characteristics always remains urgent. They are in turn determined by the known SNR (signal-to-noise ratio, SNR from English Signal-to-Noise Ratio). To achieve this goal, it is proposed to use a promising method of increasing the SNR in the DTS based on encoding the probing sensor signal by the Hadamard code sequences (simplex coding). For this purpose, a numerical experiment is carried out to implement this coding method using the DTS model and taking into account the noise of the photodetector device. The article presents the simulation results, confirms the effectiveness of the coding method, and summarizes the results of the simulation.

The paper is concerned with relevant stress concentration research in construction elements made of structurally heterogeneous materials. On the base of the physico-mechanical model of structurally heterogeneous body (polycrystal) , with the use of finite elements method, stress distribution in construction elements made of polycrystalline metals with hexagonal lattice (magnesium, titanium, zinc) is investigated at various stress states. Coefficients of stress concentration in plates with circular holes are determined in the case of uniaxial tension, uniform biaxial tension, and pure shear. It is demonstrated that stress concentration coefficients calculated regarding microstructural factors of stress concentration can take values that considerably differ from values for isotropic body, depending on anisotropy of elastic properties of polycrystalline metals and a type of stress state
