METHOD FOR REINFORCING CONCRETE BUILDINGS OF SHERICAL SHAPE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: civil engineering. SUBSTANCE: reinforcing grids are of two types: plane involute of spherical lune, and truncated spherical lune, working reinforcements in which are located in parallel in the direction from lune corner towards its corner. Concrete plugs of conical shape are installed in locations of lid and bottom of the building just opposite to one another then a layer of grids is laid down, secured in locations of joining to the plug, and then horizontal reinforcing is winded on the grids. EFFECT: may be used to construct nuclear and chemical reactors, heat storages, autoclaves and other reservoir-type constructions working under conditions of high internal stresses induced by pressure, temperature, radiation and other effects. 4 dwg
