Digital modeling of progressive collapse for high-rise building

Abstract

Objective. The article substantiates the need for digital simulation of emergency impact in the study of the stability of a building to progressive collapse by creating a simulator of local destruction.Method. To ensure the unique architectural appearance of the projected multifunctional high-rise complex, a complex shape has been developed with recesses in which elevator shafts are located. The principle of control of the structure due to the influx of external energy is observed. Energy conversion and the necessary protection is provided by the presence in the spatial frame of the building of balancing connections near architectural recesses, which allow stabilizing the state of a complex system. The spatial rigidity of the structural scheme of a high-rise building is ensured by the use of symmetrically located diaphragms and stiffening cores, rigid nodes for interfacing with the supporting structures of outrigger systems.Result. The calculation algorithm for progressive collapse includes the calculation of the stress-strain state of the building frame elements during normal operation. An analogue of the emergency action is created by excluding from the design model the bearing element, the instantaneous removal of which is modeled by a force with the opposite sign, determined by the results of the calculation in the normal operation stage.Conclusion. The stress-strain state of the frame, which occurs during local destruction, is a criterion for resistance to progressive collapse. The question of the need and the established form of outrigger floors in relation to a specific building has been investigated. The dependence of the dynamic characteristics when changing the structural solutions of the frame of a unique building is given.
