Abstract
Abstract. The paper presents the advantages of suspension buildings and
structures. It has been demonstrated, that during an earthquake the strains
in the support structures of such buildings and structures are significantly
reducThe scheme of the forces adjustment by means of springs (dampers) is
ed compared to the strains in traditional cantilever buildings. The
advantage of the suspension structures is shown by the example of a water
tower with a tank of a capacity of 50 m3. Various schemes of the
considered construction are given: the construction freely suspended on the
bearing frame, the construction with the suspended foundation (prototype).
Description
These schemes are compared with the scheme of the cantilever structure. It
is proved that the dynamic forces arising from the ground oscillation in the
suspended structure are less than the forces in the cantilever structure. The
strains depend on the frequency and amplitude of the ground vibrations.
given. It is illustrated that by changing the flexural stiffness of the bearing
frame, changing the stiffness of the damper, it is possible to adjust the
frequency of oscillations and forces in the suspension building or structure
