In connection with the revival of interest in wooden housing construction in Russia, the creation of specialized software systems for the calculation and design of buildings and structures made of wood is becoming relevant. One of the most popular systems in the world is light-frame housing construction. As one of the possible tools for automated design of light-frame wooden buildings, this article presents the FrameCAD program, developed at the Department of Metal, Wood and Plastic Structures of the Don State Technical University. Some of its capabilities are presented, allowing you to design wall fences of light-frame buildings, beamed wooden floors, perform calculations of individual frame elements taking into account the requirements of current regulatory documents and automatically generate albums of drawings of wooden structures in the domestic NormCAD program, as well as specifications for them factory made. FrameCAD has been tested in the design of a number of objects. The software product is developed by engineers who have many years of experience in the actual design and construction of light-frame buildings. It continues to be improved and supplemented, and in the future it may become a replacement for similar foreign complexes.

The article deals with the peculiarities of the study objectives and test methodology for characterization of different contact zones organized in different ways and requiring different methodological approach for specimen fabrication and testing. The steel plate-concrete contact zone organized by stamping on the steel plate requires the use of steel molds to prohibit horizontal movement. The contact zone between the steel plate and the concrete, organized by the stamping on the steel plate requires the use of steel molds to prohibit horizontal movement. The contact zone of two wooden bars organized by epoxy glue with reinforcing fabric placed between the layers of glue is tested for shear without organizing the prohibition of horizontal movement. The contact zone formed at the connection of a steel plate and incompletely gained strength concrete, with the association of steel bars has features of fixing the actual strength of the concrete part of the specimen. The considered methods have both a number of common features and differences, which are taken into account in the proposed methods of fabrication and testing.

Improving calculation models of concrete based on experimental data, especially when studying the volumetric stress-strain state, is an urgent task. When calculating the containment shells of nuclear power plants under the influence of beyond design basis accidents, it is absolutely important to take into account the available safety margins of the materials used. Under volumetric loading, due to the work of concrete in cramped conditions, its strength and deformation characteristics improve, which is not sufficiently reflected in the regulatory documentation in force in the Russian Federation. Taking into account the analysis of existing test methods, based on the labor intensity and reliability of the results obtained, the optimal method of testing for volumetric loading was identified. The article contains the results of testing the selected test method, taking into account the improvement of the deformation measurement system. They confirmed the effectiveness of using the proposed methodology from the point of view of data reliability and relatively low labor intensity of work.

The purpose of the work is to develop a methodology for calculating the stress-strain state of three-layer structures made of composite material under the action of dynamic loads in robotic systems: semi-natural simulation stands, intended mainly for testing the flight characteristics. The stand consists of movable channels that ensure movement of the tested product in three degrees of freedom. The algorithm for creating a three-layer stand made of composite material is as follows. We assign the characteristics of the filler to the model of stand, create surfaces on the model and assign to the created surfaces the characteristics of a multilayer composite material with the orientation of the base of the layers along the lines of the trajectories of maximum stresses. Calculations of a three-layer stand with eight-layer load-bearing layers, with different orientations of the layers, were carried out to determine the structure of a multilayer composite material of maximum strength and rigidity based on theories of the destruction of multilayer materials stating that the destruction of one layer leads to the destruction of the multilayer material as a whole. The stress-strain state of a three-layer of the stand for semi-natural modeling of maximum rigidity and strength was obtained. The developed methodology is applicable to a wide class of problems of calculating the robotic systems made of three-layer composite material.

The loads on the power floors and column foundations of modern logistics centers can reach 6-9 t/m2 and 1000 t, respectively. At the same time, the step of the grid of exploration wells in the mined areas does not allow reflecting on the geological sections the exact geometry of the occurrence of weak, untreated soils of backfilling pits. The use of a method for strengthening man-made soils by pressing in prefabricated prismatic piles made it possible to compensate for the missing information from engineering and geological surveys by controlling the forces of indentation and thus determining the occurrence marks of more durable foundation soils.

Technological pipelines of compressor stations are one of the significant types of basic equipment that ensures uninterrupted operation during gas transportation. In this article, we paid special attention to the issue of safe operation of the pipeline strapping of the gas treatment plant for transportation, which is designed to dry gas to the required parameters required by consumers and is one of the main technological units of the compressor station. During the operation of the adsorber lines with "hot" and "cold" gases, the pipelines of the regeneration line are subjected to high variable temperature loads. Thus, the operating organization faces the problem of ensuring sufficient compensation for the linear expansion of technological pipelines during their periodic heating. The calculation of the service life of the piping and its stability with a matched axial bellows compensator has been performed. Various solutions to the reliability problems of these compressor station components are considered and analyzed. It is concluded that it is necessary to update the regulatory design framework and introduce continuous technical monitoring methods into the operated facilities.

The article analyzes the heat-shielding properties of typical curtain-type ventilated façade (hereinafter referred to as CVF) systems used on multi-storey residential buildings in Moscow. We conducted analytical and visual studies, evaluated the technical condition by external features, including photographing the detected defects, thermographic scanning of facades, and took selective measurements of external geometric parameters, distortions, and structural properties for 18 objects in the city of Moscow. The level of defects in the thermal insulation layer at Moscow facilities was at least 50%. A gap of 10 mm at the joint of insulation slabs reduces the heat-shielding properties of the CVF fragment of the outer wall by 14.5–15%. The conclusions were drawn on the basis of the results of calculations of the reduced heat transfer resistance of a total of 18 CVF options from two manufacturers of the Kaptekhnostroy (aluminum CVFS subsystem) and Alfa-Prof (galvanized CVF subsystem) systems. When comparing these solutions, it is obvious that they are all inferior in value reduced resistance to heat transfer of the composite facade thermal insulation system. If the foundation is made of monolithic reinforced concrete or brickwork, the choice of finishing material does not matter. Moreover, the indicators of the reduced heat transfer resistance do not differ significantly. In the case of a base made of expanded clay concrete blocks, the galvanized steel subsystem is 2.9% (ceramic granite), 4.3% (fiber cement) and 4.6% (composite) more efficient.

Modern domestic calculation methods and developed countries for determining the bearing capacity of monolithic reinforced concrete slabs for punching do not fully take into account all factors of design solutions and operating conditions. The available design provisions are made for the static operation of structures and there are no recommendations for taking into account the features of the dynamic impact on the overlap and the nature of the work of the node interfaces. The accepted empirical assumptions of the calculation, based on numerous experimental data, do not take into account the features of the stress-strain state of the coupling of the overlap with the column during destruction according to the punching scheme. This is due to the lack of computational models in which all the acting internal forces ensuring the resistance of the interface to penetration would be considered comprehensively. The complexity of the problem is due to the fact that the sections of the nodal interface are in an inhomogeneous stressed state. The stress-strain state of plates for punching under dynamic load is currently little studied. This article proposes a method for determining the bearing capacity of a symmetrical nodal coupling of a column with an overlap for punching under static and short-term dynamic loading. The proposed design model of the punching strength is based on the following prerequisites: the resistance to punching of a monolithic reinforced floor consists of the shear resistance along the surface of the reduced punching pyramid formed by the height of the compressed concrete zone; the strength of the concrete shear resistance increases due to volumetric compressive forces on the surface of the reduced punching pyramid; the angle of inclination of the faces of the punching pyramid depends on the loading speed. The obtained theoretical dependences are applicable under static and dynamic loading and are in satisfactory agreement with experimental data.problems in the field of video analytics. Numerous studies have shown that, despite the dynamism of processes in the field of information technology and the introduction of various tools and methods, the task of object maintenance still remains relevant and requires further improvement of previously developed algorithms in order to eliminate some inherent disadvantages of these algorithms, systematization of techniques and methods and the development of new systems and approaches. The presented article describes the process of step-by-step development of an algorithm for tracking human movements in a video stream based on the analysis of color groups. The key stages of this algorithm are: the selection of certain frames when dividing the video stream, the selection of the object under study, which is further subjected to a digital processing procedure, the basis of which is to obtain information about color groups, their average values and percentages of their occupancy relative to the object under study. This information is used for the procedure of searching, detecting and recognizing the selected object with an additional function of predicting the direction of movement on video frames, the result of which is the formation of the entire picture of the movement of the person under study. The materials presented in this paper may be of interest to specialists whose research focuses on issues related to the automated acquisition of certain data in the analysis of various images and videos.

This article investigates the moment redistribution behavior in corroded reinforced concrete (RC) beams. previous studies by different authors are reviewed, which shed light on the behavior of corroded statically indeterminate RC elements. The corrosion effects on the ultimate strength, deflection, and moment redistribution ratios are examined. The application of axial loads and location and severity of corrosion allowed for a comprehensive discussion of the moment redistribution behavior. The results showed that continuous RC beams with corroded reinforcement behave differently than simply supported RC beams. The corrosion process also affected the moment redistribution, providing additional safety to the RC structures. Existing research in this area is limited, and further investigations are required to address this knowledge gap and improve the understanding of the mechanism of moment redistribution in continuous corroded RC beams.
