METHOD TO INCREASE EARTHQUAKE RESISTANCE OF BRICK WALL PANEL Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC E04C2/04 E04H9/02 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to construction of buildings and structures in quake-prone areas, under conditions of impact of vibrodynamic loads at factories, in cities, and is also applicable for structures of reservoirs of dry loose substances in industrial centres having sources of vibrations, and may be used in the area of means of transport in creation of body designs. The result is achieved by the method of increasing earthquake stability of a brick wall panel, which consists in the fact that a layer of mortar is placed onto the foundation between columns, and flat stiff stops are installed on it in the form of strips with vertically welded damping rods, besides, after every 8-10 rows of bricks laid on mortar stiff supports are welded, and damping rods are extended using welding, besides, in channels of the middle zone they pour mortar with vibration-damping crumb from ground worn car tyres, rods are made as damping, and each one represents a cylindrical damping element, to the ends of which flat stiff stops are rigidly attached, and the inner cavity is filled with a layer of vibration-damping material, for instance, sand, at the same time density of the vibration-damping layer is made as lower than the density of the outer cylindrical shell of the damping element, at the same time in the channels near ends of the panel they place layers of the vibration-damping material of U-shaped type, which perceive spatial vibration.

EFFECT: increased earthquake stability of a brick wall panel.
