Bout the Problem of Analysis Resistance Bearing Systems in Failure of a Structural Element

This paper focuses on the methods of calculating load-bearing systems in the case of a failure of a structural element. This kind of failure makes it necessary to assess further behavior of the structure with a possibility of the progressive collapse development. The stress-strain state analysis of a load-bearing system in the case of a failure of a structure is carried out by two main methods – static and dynamic calculation. It is shown that the static calculation (quasi-static analysis using the dynamic amplification factor) is not a universal method. This paper justifies the application of the direct dynamic calculation in the mode of direct integration of motion for the design analysis of load-bearing systems with high rigidity stories (protection structures for a load-bearing system). It also gives recommendations for selecting parameters of the direct dynamic calculation in the case of a failure analysis of a bearing structure.
