the article discusses the relevance of the use of composite materials in the reconstruction of exposed to heavy loads of concrete and reinforced concrete floors of industrial buildings. It is noted that at the present stage of development of the construction industry special attention is paid to the use of steel fibreconcrete, as this material allows with minimal material and labor costs to carry out work on the reconstruction of industrial floors. The novelty of this study is the use as an adhesive between the existing floor, which is to be restored and strengthened, and the newly laid steel-fiber concrete layer of polymer-bitumen composite material with the addition of cement and graphite powder, previously obtained by the authors experimentally. This material with the required thickness is also a structural layer for leveling the surface of the lower layer, reducing friction under the sole of the upper steel-fiber concrete layer and the existing floor. The paper presents the technology of work in the reconstruction. The composition of the steel-fiber concrete layer is adopted on the basis of studies by other authors. Despite the fact that the experiments proved the solidity and strength of the reconstruction of the floor by the developed technology, the article notes that the final characteristics of the proposed floor design and technology can be identified only during operation, which can be the basis for further research on optimizing the thickness of the layers proposed for use of composite materials. For the evaluation of economic efficiency of application of these composite materials in the reconstruction of the concrete floors in the course of the experiment, there are revealed some figures for labor and material costs.
The influence of the district gas boilers emissions on the atmospheric air is studied. prediction of the air pollution by determining concentrations along the length of the dispersion of smoke emissions will determine the degree of pollution in the existing buildings and the suitability of vacant land for construction near thermal enterprises. The proposals for the selection of sites for construction near thermal power plants have been developed.
The paper highlights the relevance of using composite materials for reconstruction of heavy-duty concrete and reinforced concrete flooring in industrial buildings, stating that at the current stage of construction development special attention is paid to the use of steel fiber concrete flooring, as this material allows for reconstruction of industrial floors with minimum financial and labor expenditure. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that the adhesive between the flooring to be restored and reinforced and the new steel fiber concrete layer is a composite polymer-bitumen material with cement and graphite powder additives, which was previously experimentally developed by the authors. This material, given an adequate thickness, also serves as a structural spacing to level the surface of the underlying layer and reduce friction under the bottom of the upper steel fiber concrete layer and the existing floor. The paper describes the reconstruction workflow. The composition of the steel fiber concrete layer has been assumed based on the research of other authors. Although experiments proved the integrity and strength of the flooring after its reconstruction with the new technology, it is noted that the final characteristics of the proposed floor structures and workflow can only be assessed in the course of normal use, which can be the basis for further research aimed to optimize the thickness of the suggested composite layers. The experiment delivered certain labor and material cost figures for evaluating the economic efficiency of the use of the composites described below in the concrete flooring reconstruction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
