The problem of digitalization of the data accounting system and the problem of managing the technical condition of equipment at thermal power plants are considered. The performance of the entire thermal power plant depends on the operation of the boiler units. If the equipment fails and the necessary measures to resolve the emergency are not taken in time, then the probability of a decrease in the plant's performance up to the suspension of work increases. Thus, the issue of monitoring the technical condition of all operating equipment is relevant. The developed software for automation of the data recording system and visualization of technical parameters of the reliability of boiler and turbine equipment is described. The software has a methodology for determining the technical condition index of equipment. The software was developed using the JavaScript programming language, the React.js library. Digital technologies have been introduced into the process of recording data on the technical condition of equipment, where for the first time the software includes a method for automatic calculation of the technical condition index of boiler units. The software ensures that equipment downtime is reduced, as well as the likelihood of failure or critical breakdown of boilers. Thus, the operation of the software makes it possible to reduce the likelihood of an emergency state of the main equipment of power plants.

The water recreation industry is actively developing. An individual pool at home is also not uncommon for a long time, because everyone wants to live in comfortable conditions. Modern country houses place the pool on the ground floor of the premises on the plot next to the house. Despite the financial costs and time for maintenance, the health benefits of the pool, as well as the variety of leisure activities through taking water procedures or playing with children, are a very powerful argument in order to arrange a pool at home.The number of pools is increasing and the number of pools built with defects is also increasing. it may be because use low-quality construction materials and reduce their volumes, perform work by unskilled employees, violate the requirements of construction documents of the project. therefore it is necessary to carry out construction and technical examination.

The effective use of high-strength reinforcement in reinforced concrete structures is an important task today. In order to reduce the consumption of materials, especially steel, it is necessary to use high-strength materials more widely in the production of reinforced concrete structures. In recent years, researchers have significantly increased interest in reinforced concrete structures with mixed reinforcement. To determine the effect of the concrete class on the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns, a numerical experiment was performed. According to the results of the experiment, it was found that the maximum increase in bearing capacity with all variants of relative eccentricity is observed in racks with previously stretched and non-tensile reinforcement. Thus, the studies showed that the use of columns with mixed reinforcement is advisable. The use of mixed reinforcement in reinforced concrete racks in all cases is more effective than racks with non-tensile reinforcement.

In the view of most people, the criterion "high-rise buildings" is very blurred. Five or seven storey buildings were considered one or two centuries ago to be tall, but now you will not surprise anyone with a number of storeys over fifty. Russian law sets the maximum possible 75-meter height for residential buildings and 50-meter - for public buildings. The construction of higher facilities is subject to special requirements. The article discusses the development of high-rise buildings of a megalopolis using the example of the city of Rostov-on-Don, presenting famous high-rise buildings in Rostov at present. Along with increasing the number of storeys of buildings, their design features are also changing. The types of structural schemes of high-rise buildings, the materials of the supporting structures of high-rise buildings, their advantages and applications are described. The problems that arise in high-rise construction are described.

In the work it is proposed to use the principle of zonal placement of materials in prefabricated-monolithic bending structures with the use of light concrete, as well as combined reinforcement. The upper (monolithic) layer is preferably made of light concrete of low strength, and the lower (prefabricated elements) - of steel fibre concrete based on light concrete of higher strength. Rod and fibre reinforcement are located in prefabricated elements, which under operating loads will be in stretched zone of bent elements.The results of experimental studies of crack resistance and deformation of steel-fibre-fluorophobetone (SFTB) prefabricated monolithic bending elements on the basis of shoe filler of Kamenskoe deposit of Kabardino-Balkan Republic are presented in the work. Based on analysis of obtained data correlation dependence is derived and character and degree of influence of various factors on crack resistance and deformability of assembled monolithic combined reinforced bending elements is revealed. The following conclusions have been drawn: reinforcement of prefabricated elements of flexable monolithic structures made of tuphobetone with rods and fibres allows to significantly increase their crack resistance; Parameters of combined reinforcement of prefabricated elements, assignment of their geometrical dimensions, as well as dimensions of sections of bent prefabricated-monolithic structures from tuphobetone as a whole can be assigned taking into account correlation dependencies for evaluation of crack resistance obtained from the results of these studies.

An idea is introduced of the directing structures of the director and reflex types that contribute to the formation of air flows, which in a given way contribute to an increase in mechanical power on the shaft of its rotor. These structures can be used to amplify the moment on the rotor shaft by increasing its useful interference with the stator. Qualitative considerations about the influence of the introduced guide structures are confirmed by the introduction and numerical aerodynamic calculations of two modernized designs of a promising vortex wind power installation, considered in the previous works of the authors. The most optimal variant of rotor modernization was selected, which made it possible to increase the power on its shaft by an average of 45% relative to the corresponding power for the design of a wind turbine with an initial rotor shape in the operating range of wind speeds from 1 to 12 m / s. The materials of this article can be used to design the optimum aerodynamic power criterion for the rotor of wind power plants, their stations, as well as integrated power power plants, including a wind power plant as one of the renewable sources of energy.

Today, catalysts based on zeolites containing transition metal ions are being intensively developed, ensuring the selectivity of the reaction of direct oxidation of methane to methanol. In current work, the X-ray absorption spectroscopy complimented with the structural models obtained in frames of the density functional theory were used to study the dependence of the local atomic structure of copper centers in mordenite type zeolites synthesized by solid-phase ion exchange using CuCl and H-MOR, upon the annealing temperature at different stages of synthesis. The typical Cu – O interatomic distances and the corresponding coordination numbers are determined. The dependence of the fraction of copper ions on the zeolite on the annealing temperature was established.

The problem of calculating rods for vector perturbations consisting of five components is solved: 1. kinematic transverse vibrations of the left end; 2. kinematic transverse vibrations of the right end; 3. dynamic bending moment at the left end; 4. dynamic bending moment at the right end; 5 dynamic uniformly distributed lateral load along the length of the rod. The transfer functions from each disturbance are obtained separately. Using these functions, we obtained the elements of the spectral matrix for stationary random processes, taking into account their correlation. The most common types of processes are considered: exponentially correlated random process; process with latent periodicity (with characteristic frequency); truncated white noise. The formula for obtaining the dispersion of displacement of sections is shown.
