ANALYSIS OF CALCULATION METHODS FOR PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE OF SINGLE-STOREY FRAME INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS AND SEARCH FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE THE ACCURACY OF CALCULATIONS

Abstract

The issues of analysing the progressive collapse of buildings have become an inseparable part of design. However, design standards still do not provide clear criteria for the calculation algorithm in the analysis of instantaneous collapse of building structures. The article discusses the problems and uncertainties of formulating the problem of analysing the instantaneous collapse of structures. To illustrate the uncertainty of applying applying building analysis methods to progressive collapse in accordance with the requirements of various standards, examples of calculations of existing one-storey frame industrial buildings are given. SCAD Office and LIRA-SCAD software packages are used for the analysis. The results of the solution of the dynamic problem in the time domain are compared with the setting of different times of redistribution of the reaction and the results of the quasi-static calculation with different dynamic coefficients. A comparison is made between the theoretical results of predicting disproportionate destruction and the actual collapse of the structures of the industrial building that was damaged by missile strikes. The presence of important discrepancies in the calculation results and their causes are analyzed. The purpose of the article is to analyze the main features that arise when designing (reinforced) structures of industrial buildings, taking into account the possibility of their local destruction. Conclusion. The article considers some problems that must be solved during the design or reconstruction of industrial buildings, the operation of which may be associated with one or another local destruction of the bearing structures. Prospective constructive ways of effectively solving these problems are presented.
