Abstract

During the design, installation and operation of silos, they have defects and damage of various kinds, which affect the stress-strain state and durability of structural elements. Timely inspections and determination of technical conditions of structural elements of the structure and the site as a whole, will establish the possibility of its further safe operation or the need to restore operational properties by ensuring structural safety and reliability of structures. Therefore, the development of design schemes, methods of calculating the stress-strain state, life expectancy and further reinforcement for round reinforced concrete elements of silos with local damage, is quite relevant. Improper maintenance and operation of structural elements, as well as errors in the design and installation in the future lead to unusable for normal operation and sometimes an emergency. The development of projects to strengthen existing structures is a very responsible matter. The most common solution for strengthening existing foundations is to increase the area of support of the foundation cushion, which is not always possible in a compact building. The purpose of the work is to determine the technical condition of the building structures of the silo and the results of calculations performed in the PC Lira, to offer options for strengthening the foundation on a specific example. Structural solutions of the reinforced concrete monolithic foundation of the silo, the main defects and damages determined by the technical condition of the structure are given. For further safe operation of the structure, it is recommended to reinforce the wall foundations by gluing composite tapes and perform reinforcement of the foundations by controlling the growth of piles in accordance with the additional working design of the structure reinforcement. If the latest recommendations on strengthening and adhering to the safe and reliable operation of construction and structures are followed, further operation of building structures will be safe.
