Abstract
Purpose. Recently, the demand for reuse of industrial buildings that have not been in operation for some time has been increasing in Ukraine. Herewith, quite often the design of their roof requires the complete replacement and renovation by using modern roofing materials to meet the requirements of new government standards. Therefore, the choice and justification of the rational design of steel roof on the example of a short-span industrial building (18-24 m span), which is planned to be returned to exploitation after idle time, is the main goal of this publication. The object of the analysis is an unheated building equipped with bridge cranes of a small capacity (up to 10 tons). Me-thodology. To achieve this purpose, the comparison of structural variants of a roof steel collar tie was performed. Such variants include two types of collar tie cross-section –a lattice truss and a solid I-girder. The first type was analyzed for four possible types of section of elements – double angles, a roll-welded square profile, an electric-welded round tube and a rolled round tube. The second type was analyzed for two possible types of section – rolled I-section made of normal strength steel and fabricated sections of thin-gage high-strength steel. The design variants were compared on the basis of a numerical analysis of their work using the finite element method based on the software complex SCAD for Windows. Findings. According to the research results it should be stated that for the conditions of the city of Dnipro the most cost-effective variant of the steel collar tie cross section for the short-span industrial building is the truss made of electric-welded round tubes. Also the construction of collar tie made of roll-welded square profiles or fabricated section of thin-gage high-strength steel is considered quite effective. Originality. The research presented in the publication allows estimating the possibility and economic efficiency of usage for various types of cross-sections for the collar tie of a steel non-insulated roof of the industrial building for the reconstruction conditions in the Dnipro-city. Practical value. A practical estimation of mass and cost parameters for steel collar ties of various types has been carried out, and the methodology for conducting such estimation has been substantiated.
Highlights
In Ukraine one of the key problems in the field of exploitation of the industrial enterprise structures is the level of their technical condition
Given the nature of the industrial building in question, the design of its roof should provide for the use of bearing collar ties, which include a system of purlins and steel profiled flooring
According to the calculation results for truss-type collar ties the sections of the elements were selected for each of the four constructive types
Summary
In Ukraine one of the key problems in the field of exploitation of the industrial enterprise structures is the level of their technical condition This is especially true for such buildings, which for some time were not in operation, but were, so to speak, «on their own». Attempts to return such structures to operation are increasingly observed in practice, because it is often a cheaper option than the construction of a completely new object As a rule, such reuse of building structures is accompanied by their full or partial renewal, depending on their technical condition, and the building itself is redesigned to the requirements of new ISSN 2307–3489 (Print), ІSSN 2307–6666 (Online).
