Abstract

In this work, experimental studies were conducted on the effect of vibrational influences from highways on the state of the foundation structures of a five-story residential building in Astrakhan. The studies were combined with an examination of the geo-base, foundations, and foundation of a multi-story brick residential building. Studies have shown that over four years, damaged building structures underwent significant changes due to increased vibration from the highway, and the rate of deformation in the supporting structures prove their emergency state. It is confirmed that the main factors affecting the magnitude of vibration acceleration of the building foundation structure are: structural type of the building; distance from the building to the source of seismic waves; longitudinal wave propagation velocity in the soil layer.

Highlights

  • Over the past 10 - 15 years, as a result of a multiple increase in the level of saturation of cities, the growth of all types of cargo flows, an increase in the speed and intensity of traffic make it necessary to obtain qualitative and quantitative estimates of the impact of transport vibration on the safety of building structures of buildings and structures.In multi-story buildings, along with a decrease in vibration on high floors, its increase due to resonance phenomena is observed

Summary

Introduction

Over the past 10 - 15 years, as a result of a multiple increase in the level of saturation of cities, the growth of all types of cargo flows, an increase in the speed and intensity of traffic make it necessary to obtain qualitative and quantitative estimates of the impact of transport vibration on the safety of building structures of buildings and structures. Consideration of local engineering and geological conditions allows us to calculate more earthquake-resistant and safe structures This fact is taken into account in many building codes and rules, which introduced amendments to seismic effects, taking into account the resonant amplification of vibrations of the upper soil layer.
