SUPPORT FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS RESISTANCE IN BUILDINGS Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC E02D27/32 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to construction engineering, namely to the main building elements ensuring its integrity under environmental impacts of natural and man-induced origin. Support for environmental impacts resistance consists of a lifting mechanism including two parts. The first part is coupled with the supporting structure, while the second part is linked with an embedded in ground element. At the same time, possibility of vertical movement for the first part relative to the second part is provided to a distance corresponding to fluctuations of possible flooding level. Building stability unit is implemented as a pair(s) of guiding rods with their one ends being rigidly connected with supporting structure of building and ground, correspondingly, while the other ends are mated with each other in case condition is satisfied that supporting structure of building moves to the distance of flooding level. Hydro-driven motor, for example vertical hydro cylinder, is used as lifting mechanism. Housing of the above cylinder is the first part of lifting mechanism, while cylinder rod with piston forms the second of the said lifting mechanism. Hydraulic cylinder is included into hydro-drive control diagram, which includes also tank with oil connected to the intake part of pump. Pressure line of the above pump is linked with safety valve and filters coupled with distributor through safety valve. The distributor control oil flow. Guide (s) of building stability unit is installed in well made in ground. In addition, support for environmental impact resistance includes protection barrier(s) to be positioned in probable direction of impact. Protection barrier is divertive type barrier and implemented as rostrum (vessel nose) to be mounted in front of the building. Barrier boards are made so that in working position the largest width of its by-pass is slightly wider than those facing flow direction of protected rods or building. The rostrum itself is implemented so that to ensure sensing hydrodynamic effort of the flow. Shafts are installed on rostrum boards and stem posts. They are partially embedded into the boards so that they can rotate in bearings. The shaft axes are installed close to normal relative flow direction.

EFFECT: improved reliability of support operation and broader applications of its operation.
