Study of the Effects of Natural And Man-Made Origin On the Technical Condition of Architectural Monuments

Abstract

The results of research into the dynamic characteristics of technical objects under the influence of loads of natural and man-made origin are presented. The object of research is the phenomenon of propagation of vibrations in the load-bearing elements of construction structures. One of the problems in the inspection and monitoring of construction objects is the assessment of the dynamic action on the load-bearing elements of the structure. The external influence of dynamic phenomena of natural and man-made origin on the condition of the load-bearing structures of the Cathedral "Sophia of Kyiv" was studied. The revealed phenomena of the transmission of vibrations of the general system of the building made it possible to formulate the reasons for the appearance of defects. The obtained research results can be used in the development of numerical and experimental methods and algorithms for assessing the technical condition of load-bearing elements of buildings and structures under the action of dynamic loads of various sources.
