The research aimed to investigate the properties of glass-basalt composite tubes, specifically examining the relationship between structural fractal dimensions, composition, and mechanical properties. Physical experiments were carried out to assess the properties of glass and glass-basalt composite tubes. These tests included measurements of tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, fracture resistance, flexural strength, and additional mechanical characteristics. Fractal analysis of rovings and epoxy binder was performed at the microstructural level to evaluate the impact of structure on mechanical performance. Through predictive modeling of the physical and mechanical properties of glass-basalt composite tubes, an optimal range of properties was identified. This range is defined by specific technological parameters: rovings content of 68–74%, basalt fiber diameter of 7–12 μm, and epoxy binder content of 21–27%. Within this framework, the production of tubes with the following target properties was predicted: tensile strength, compressive strength , and modulus of elasticity.

The purpose of this work is to study the thermal stress of the furnace of a fire-tube boiler and its effect on the design of the boiler. To study the effect of thermal stress and furnace proportions on the ratio of heating surface areas, the calculated resistance was tested. Calculations of heat-tube boilers of sectional hot-water boilers with different proportions of the furnace at different thermal loads of the same furnace volume are performed. The calculation of each heating surface is carried out by the method of successive approximations, based in this case on the chord method. In the calculation process, the flue gas temperature at the outlet of the heating surface was first set, and then refined by successive approximations. To reduce the overall balance of the boiler, another global approximation is made when the temperature determined at the outlet of the last heating surface is set at the beginning of the calculation – in the heat balance, where it affects the loss with outgoing gases and the efficiency of the boiler. It is determined that the optimal.

The features of the calculation of nodal joints of frame buildings made of cold-formed steel profiles are considered. The connection of elements of frame buildings made of cold-formed steel profiles for the perception of acting forces is made on bolts using low-carbon steel shapes, the profiles themselves are made of thin-sheet galvanized rolled products. But there are no requirements for the thickness of the shapes and specific thickness values depending on the applied forces in the regulatory documentation, since these compounds are poorly studied in Russia. The calculation of frame buildings made of cold-bent steel profiles and the analysis of nodes with bolted connections was carried out and a method for determining the number of bolts in nodes in two design cases depending on the thickness of the shape was proposed, the need to introduce these requirements into the regulatory documentation for thin-walled structures was shown.

The article considers the prospects for the development of modular construction of buildings and structures in the North Caucasus, analyzes the stages of formation and development of this direction in the light of modern trends. Modular technology in construction is a modern method that involves assembling buildings from prefabricated modules. This approach can significantly reduce the time of construction of buildings, improve their quality and reduce costs. In the conditions of the Stavropol Territory, where there is an increase in the population and the need for housing, such technologies can play a key role in solving the problem of providing citizens with comfortable and affordable housing. This article considers the possibilities of using modular technology in house building. The advantages of this technology are considered in terms of quality, savings, time and environmental friendliness, as well as the flexibility of designs and safety both in the production process and during installation at the construction site. The disadvantages of modular construction are also mentioned, such as the complexity of transporting modules, the need for coordination between production and construction, as well as the high cost of production and standardization. The North Caucasus has unique natural and climatic conditions, which opens up opportunities for the use of modular technologies. Modular housing construction is a fairly efficient construction technology that leads to a reduction in waste and ensures greater precision in the manufacture of components.

The article discusses the issues of organizational and technological approaches in the design of facilities to be reconstructed. During the operation of buildings, the reliability of their structures is subject to cyclical changes. The dynamics of loads, as well as damage resulting from operation, can have a significant impact on the strength and durability of construction facilities. The reasons for the technical inspection during reconstruction are analyzed. The diagnosis of structural failure is analyzed. In most cases, emergencies are the result of missed errors at the design stage of the project, construction of the construction site and its operation. To minimize such risks, additional measures are being implemented aimed at quality control at all stages - from design to commissioning. A number of conditions have been identified under which most defects in the design and operation of structures can be prevented even at the stage of development of the reconstruction project.

In this article, the authors consider the main aspects of maintaining the temperature and relative humidity of the premises of library collections and archive repositories using specialized engineering equipment. The preservation and preservation of material assets is designated as one of the priority tasks of preserving the cultural heritage of Russia. Conservation includes all types of activities and engineering support to guarantee the physical safety of any objects intended for long-term storage, such as library and museum. Currently, both the national program for the preservation of cultural values and the strategy for the development of librarianship have been adopted, including engineering methods for maintaining microclimate parameters for storage facilities and archives of various types: library, museum and federal purposes. Previously, the authors studied the reports provided on the preservation of library collections in Russia and abroad. It has been revealed that in a significant number of cases, the conditions for the preservation of both paper and other funds intended for storage and use as necessary to work with them are not provided. The authors conducted a study and analyzed changes in microclimate parameters when using central air conditioners of various configurations serving two separate sections of one library storage, which is a single-tier room type. The disadvantages of using a simplified basic modification of the central air conditioner based on the results of temperature and relative humidity control in each of the rooms, performed daily from January to June 2022, were confirmed. Variants of changing the configuration of engineering equipment with insufficient functionality with a limited area of the ventilation chamber are proposed.

One of the important parameters of shaping historical and cultural monuments of the tower type are the dimensions in plan, the thickness of the external walls varying with height, and the angles of inclination of the external and internal sides of the external walls. The article defines the average values of the angles of inclination of the external and internal sides of the walls of tower structures from the vertical using visual and instrumental methods using optical devices, plumb lines, and goniometers. A system of equations is compiled that determines the patterns of shaping cultural heritage monuments of the tower type. An example of calculating the geometric parameters of the designed tower based on the compiled dependencies is considered. The parameters of shaping tower structures must be taken into account when developing design documentation for repair and restoration work, as well as when drawing up process maps for the construction of destroyed or physically worn out wall structures.

The article discusses the results of the analysis of the stress-strain state of the junction of the column and the beam of a monolithic reinforced concrete frame - in particular, the cornice nodes of the outer columns, which have an L-shape. In these nodes, part or all of the tensile (upper) reinforcement of the beam, bending along a certain radius R, passes into the column. The subject of the study is the stress state of concrete in the frame node, as well as the features of the operation of the curvilinear section of the tensile reinforcement. The study of the features of the concrete operation was carried out by setting up a computational experiment. Modeling was performed in the Lira-SAPR software package. The characteristics of the model (finite element scheme) and the main results of the calculation are given - the distribution and numerical values of stresses. To assess the actual work of the tensile reinforcement of the node, an analysis was made of the influence of the loading history of the reinforcement bar - its plastic bending to give the required outline. It was established that the stress state of concrete of a bisecting section differs fundamentally from the stress-strain state of concrete in normal cross-sections of a beam and a column. Taking into account the loading history of the reinforcing bar (preliminary inelastic bending) allowed us to conclude that, with the same tensile force, the deformations of a pre-bent bar exceed the deformations of a rectilinear bar. Obviously, this circumstance leads to an increase in the crack opening width.

Polymer composite materials have been widely used in the construction industry. Currently, these materials are used to restore the operability of buildings and structures, regardless of their functional purpose. To date, the production process is carried out manually and in this regard, there is a need to develop tooling and organizational and technological methods to strengthen structures with polymer-composite materials that increase labor productivity. Due to the insufficient amount of research in this area, the regulatory documentation regulating the procedure for performing quality control of construction and installation works at all stages of restoration of building structures with polymer-composite materials is very limited. In this article, typical solutions for strengthening building structures are considered, various types of polymer-composite materials used in reinforcement are indicated, and the structure of the reinforcement process is described. In addition, an assessment of the time spent in the production of work manually and using small-scale mechanization with the use of additional equipment was carried out. It should also be noted that based on the study of domestic and foreign experience, issues requiring a systematic approach to their solution have been identified. The development and improvement of the regulatory framework, organizational and technological solutions will ensure the further development and application of composite materials in the construction industry.

The article presents the results of experimental tests of a number of reinforced concrete eccentrically compressed structures reinforced with composite materials in the longitudinal and transverse directions. During the study, it was found that the composite external reinforcement does not work the same in reinforced concrete structures, but depends on the area of the composite materials on the structure. This is due to different stress concentrations along the length of reinforced concrete structures from the action of bending moments and transverse forces. The consequence of this uneven stress state in composite materials is their premature delamination and an underestimation of the overall efficiency of the reinforcement system. This article presents the results of experimental data on the values of relative deformations εf of composite materials of reinforced concrete pillars, flexibility λh = 10, tested at a large eccentricity of load application (e0 = 4 cm or 0.32h), going beyond the core of the section. This paper considers various options for composite reinforcement located both in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The deformations were recorded by strain gauges with a 2.0 cm base, at all load levels. As a result, the maximum relative deformations of composite materials were recorded, the most effective zones of transverse clamps location and places where deformation along the fibers did not develop were identified, therefore, the composite in the reinforcement system did not work. The obtained data make it possible to develop the most rational reinforcement options.

To check the efficiency and correctness of the implementation of primary and secondary signal processing algorithms in onboard radar systems for Arctic purposes in the functional tasks of detecting weather conditions that are potentially hazardous to flight, it is advisable to use numerical modeling of radar signal simulators. This is due to the fact that during preliminary tests under adverse weather conditions there is a potential danger of losing control over the flight of the radar carrier, especially in the case of developing unmanned aircraft platforms. In addition, there are very rare weather phenomena, such as wind shear, the detection of which during tests is an unlikely event. All this leads to the fact that the development and debugging of onboard radars for low-altitude carriers that solve the problem of meteorological navigation during flight, it is advisable to carry out the method of semi-naturalistic modeling, using databases for the formation of reflected signals that contain a set of initial parameters that allow imitation either in real time or according to a pre-planned flight scenario and a prepared special set of signal signature records. This article proposes an algorithm for working with a database and subsequent numerical modeling, which allows estimating the necessary spectral components of signal signatures for a pulse-Doppler radar that estimates the radial component of wind speed in each resolution element, which is used for further calculation of the F-factor of wind shear hazard.

In this paper, heat transfer in a staggered tube bundle under steady and pulsating flow conditions is analyzed using numerical simulation. The numerical study was conducted for tube bundles with 5, 10, and 15 longitudinal rows. The Reynolds number Re and the Prandtl number Pr were 3400 and 3 respectively. Flow pulsations were characterized by both symmetrical and asymmetrical reciprocating flow. The effect of pulsations was estimated using the product of the relative dimensionless pulsation amplitude and the Strouhal number A/DSh, which corresponded to values of 0.1, 0.25, and 0.4. The numerical study was conducted using Ansys Fluent. The flow hydrodynamics in the tube bundle was described using the Reynolds-averaged unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. Based on the results of numerical simulation, it was found that the effect of pulsations on heat transfer in the tube bundle varies depending on the number of longitudinal rows. It is shown that an increase in the number of rows leads to a decrease in the Nusselt number ratio in a pulsating flow compared to a steady flow. It is established that the thermal-hydraulic efficiency increases with an increase in the number of rows. It is shown that asymmetric pulsations are more effective than symmetric ones for intensifying heat transfer when taking into account energy costs
