EARTHQUAKE-RESISTANT STRUCTURE WITH MICROCLIMATE Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC E04H9/02 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to construction of objects protected against unfavourable or catastrophic factors. An earthquake-resistant structure with a microclimate consists of a house with a waterproof cellar submerged into water and having buoyancy and an earthquake-resistant trench with fresh or salt water, in which the house is in a floating state. In order to align the house with the cellar as to level and provide the state of stable balance, levelling containers are used. In order to provide a water obstacle, shock absorbing devices restricting horizontal movements of the house in different levels and allowing its vertical movements are used. Such structure excludes direct contact of the housing to the main ground and forms a water obstacle in any direction between the ground and the housing, which absorbs both seismic and air impact loads, as well as provides protection against floods. In order to provide a microclimate in the house, the levelling containers can be filled with water and have an additional function of heat accumulators, in which solar heat energy is accumulated and stored. A heat energy accumulation process is minimised due to a solar heat exchanger, in which a house air cooling function is combined with a function of accumulation and transfer of solar heat energy to the levelling heat accumulators. In the same heat exchange process, there can be generated an electrical current with photoelectric or semi-conductor low-temperature thermoelectric generators of electrical energy, the modules of which are installed in channels of the solar heat exchanger.

EFFECT: improving reliability of complex protection of a house in an earthquake-resistant structure with a microclimate against unfavourable and catastrophic factors.
