The article analyzes modern methods for monitoring the technical operation of buildings and structures. Technical inspection of buildings and structures is a separate type of construction activity. The necessity for a technical survey is caused by the physical and moral deterioration of building structures and changes of terms of use, as well as the absence in building codes of an explicit account of the time factor. Ensuring the operability of structures at a specific moment of existence requires a set of measures that differ from the design, manufacture and installation of building elements associated with the creation of normal conditions for the life of enterprises in industrial buildings and structures and, above all, the safety of the operation process.
Specialists in the technical operation of buildings and structures have new tools for more accurate determination of defects and supervision of buildings and structures. The emergence and development of IT technologies, in particular, the use of mathematical, computer modeling techniques have demonstrated unprecedented opportunities for a comprehensive approach to testing the performance of buildings. Most modern methods of technical inspection of buildings do not require significant financial and labor costs; they can be directly implemented both during the planning of the facility and during its operation without reducing the bearing capacity of structures, unlike classical methods (visual, visual-instrumental, etc.). Their goal is to control the technical condition of building structures and early diagnosis of threats to the existence of the object. The integrated use of these methods at different stages of the life cycle of buildings will increase their service life and the comfort and safety of staying in them.
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.
