The widespread use of one-storey frame buildings and the absence of a normative document reflecting the specifics of designing precast concrete structures of these buildings necessitated the development of provisions for the design of the frame, as well as its individual structural elements such as foundations, foundation beams, columns, roof trusses, roof beams , slabs, crane girders and external enclosing structures. These provisions are reflected in the Code of rules 355.1325800.2017 "Frame constructions, prefabricated reinforced concrete, of one-storey industrial buildings. Design rules». The Code of rules developed by the authors' team of JSC TsNIIPromzdaniy consists of 7 sections and 4 annexes. There is a classification of buildings by space-planning solutions, equipment lifting and transport equipment, type of lighting, air exchange system and the presence of heating systems. The requirements of the Code of rules apply to the design of precast reinforced concrete frames of single-storey industrial buildings of mass use for all natural and climatic zones of the Russian Federation, except for sites with seismicity of 7 or more points and zones with permafrost. The considered document is intended for designers, developers of software systems, teachers, etc.

The relevance of research in the factory laboratory of JSC «198 KZHI», which is part of the HC GVSU «Center», is dictated by the need to dispose of foam polystyrene waste that occurs in large quantities when producing the precast concrete. In the production of three-layer external wall panels, polystyrene heatinsulating plates of the PPS 17-R-A brand are used as an effective insulation material. The secondary use of PPS 17-R-A for its intended purpose, as a heater, is not possible. The volume of foam polystyrene produced varies from 25 to 45 m3 per month. Utilization (disposal) of foam polystyrene waste is an expensive undertaking. Its use as a filler in the production of expanded polystyrene blocks was tested in the factory’s laboratory to produce foam polystyrene concrete with specified physical and mechanical characteristics. The results of testing of expanded polystyrene concrete of classes B2.5 and B 7.5 are presented. It is shown that under the conditions of the reinforced concrete factory technology, the production of polystyrene concrete blocks is possible with the achievement of the design strength. The information presented in the article is aimed at motivating specialists who produce recast concrete to the possibility of using foam polystyrene waste for low-rise construction. Keywords: foam polystyrene, ecology, energy efficiency, foam polystyrene concrete, foam polystyrene heat insulation plates, precast concrete.

On Precast concrete structures the column foundation connections can occur through the socket foundation, which can be embedded, partially embedded or external, with socket walls over the pile caps. This paper presents an experimental study about two pile caps reinforced concrete with external, partially embedded and embedded socket submitted to central load, using 1:2 scaled models. In the analyzed models, the smooth interface between the socket walls and column was considered. The results are compared to a reference model that presents monolithic connections between the column and pile cap. It is observed that the ultimate load of pile cap with external sockets has the same magnitude as the reference pile cap, but the ultimate load of models with partially embedded and embedded socket present less magnitude than the reference model.

Traditional methods of calculation of beam constructions of floors and coverings of industrial buildings assume their consideration when calculating separately from the frame structures, in particular, reinforced concrete slabs, without taking into account their joint work, which leads to a significant margin of safety. Today in Ukraine there is a significant number of industrial buildings and structures that need strengthening and reconstruction. In this regard, of particular importance are studies of the actual load-bearing capacity of the frames of single-storey and multi-storey industrial buildings, and both in the reconstruction and in new construction, the results of which will significantly reduce costs and more rationally design structures. At the same time, one of the most relevant areas is the study of the joint work of metal load-bearing structures with prefabricated reinforced concrete structures of rigid disks of coatings and floors in their calculation.           Moreover, in the national building codes, as well as in the educational and methodological literature, the calculation methods of taking into account the joint work of such constructions are not fully covered. The purpose of this work is to estimate the reduction of mass of the metal beam structure in its calculation in bending, taking into account the joint work with the rigid disk of the floor consist of precast concrete. As part of the study, the calculation of the floor beam according to the traditional calculation scheme - without taking into account the joint work with the floor slab, the calculation of its cross-section taking into account the joint work with floor slabs and experimental numerical study of the floor by the finite element method. Modeling of the floor fragment was performed in the software packages "SCAD Office" and "LIRA CAD 2019". Numerical research is aimed at verifying the feasibility of using the calculation methodology of DBN B.2.6-98-2009 to determine the effective width of the shelf when calculating the T-sections for prefabricated reinforced concrete slabs, which are included in the joint work with the floor beams. A comparative analysis of the obtained cross-section of the beam with the beam which was previously calculated by the traditional method of calculation  in stresses in the most dangerous cross section and the total mass of the beams. According to the results of the analysis, the correctness of the application of the above normative method for determining the effective width of the shelf of T-bending reinforced concrete elements was confirmed.

Concrete Building

Precast concrete structures are widely used in construction. It consists of prefabricated elements casted in industry and connected to each other to form a homogeneous structure. Connections function is to transfer moments and axial forces. Many engineers assume precast connection as pinned, but in reality, they are semi-rigid connections that transfer forces to other members. Lack of design and detailing of connection leads to improper behaviour of the structure, which then leads to the collapse of the building. Past earthquake studies show that many precast buildings performed poorly, and the main reasons were connections. This paper mainly focuses on understanding the seismic behaviour of mid-rise i.e seven-storey precast reinforced concrete buildings with various beam-column joints i.e rigid, semi-rigid, pinned and column-base supports i.e, fixed and hinged supports. Building is modelled and analyzed using ETABS v17 software. Rotational stiffness of precast billet connection is adopted for modelling of semi-rigid beam-column connections. Response spectrum and modal analysis are carried out. Results of displacements, storey drift, storey shear, storey stiffness, base shear, time periods and first mode shapes of models are discussed. It is observed, precast reinforced concrete building models with semi rigid connection performs better than building models with pinned connections and building models with fixed supports reduces the structural response to a great extent.
