Abstract

The paper considers the problem of calculating the strength of foundation slabs under seismic and wind loads. As an example, a numerical model of a hotel building to be built on bulk islands is presented. The calculation of the foundation slab model is performed using the STARK ES software package. The results of the calculation are analyzed and recommendations for strengthening the foundation are given.

Highlights

  • Construction is being carried out in more and more difficult areas: with increased wind, snow and seismic loads, with difficult soils, etc

  • More and more unique buildings have begun to be erected on complex bases, such as bulk islands

  • Modeling such structures involves a great deal of scientific work necessary to minimize the risk of building collapse, as well as to extend the life of buildings [1,2,3,4]

Summary

Introduction

Construction is being carried out in more and more difficult areas: with increased wind, snow and seismic loads, with difficult soils, etc. More and more unique buildings have begun to be erected on complex bases, such as bulk islands. Modeling such structures involves a great deal of scientific work necessary to minimize the risk of building collapse, as well as to extend the life of buildings [1,2,3,4]. The study of foundations, as one of the main load-bearing structures of the building requires increased attention. A correct and detailed calculation of the foundation can often save a lot of money during the construction. This paper considers the problem of calculating the foundation slab of a hotel building located on a bulk island, in order to identify weaknesses in buildings with complex foundations
