The effect of redispersible polymer powders on the change in the properties of building mortars after 60 cycles of heating to 60 ° C and cooling is investigated. An increase in the compressive strength from 11 to 27% was revealed at a dosage of RPP from 1 to 3%, and the introduction of an air-entrapping additive into the composition does not contribute to an increase in the compressive strength. A significant increase in the ratio of the tensile strength "flexural tension" has been established/compression", while the tensile strength of building mortars during bending practically does not change with an increase in the dosage of RPP, and the increase in tensile strength during bending occurs to a lesser extent than that of building mortars without RPP, and the presence of an air-entrapping additive contributes to an increase in the tensile strength during bending. A decrease in the initial modulus of elasticity was found almost independently of the dosage of the RPP to values of 0.82 – 0.84, and in the presence of an air-entrapping additive to 0.9 relative to normal hardening conditions. A decrease in the adhesion strength to the concrete base to values of 0.59 – 0.75 relative to normal hardening conditions was revealed. The presence of an air-entrapping additive leads to an increase in the adhesion strength after cyclic heating-cooling by more than 4 times.

The paper presents the results of studying the dependences of the physico-mechanical properties of facing ceramics on the use of molybdenum trioxide. The additive together with boric acid is introduced into a charge based on low-plastic clay. The studied ceramic material was obtained by semi-dry pressing at a maximum firing temperature of 1050 ° C. Both additives used are fins, contributing to liquid-phase sintering and the effect of self-glazing of the surface of the material. At the same time, molybdenum trioxide also makes it possible to reduce the viscosity of the vitreous phase and increase its degree of crystallinity. The optimal amount of molybdenum trioxide has been established, which allows to effectively increase the strength and frost resistance of ceramics. The practical application of the developed composition of the charge will allow the use of low-quality raw materials for the production of facing construction ceramics with high performance characteristics.

GRP horizontal tanks are used for wastewater treatment. This material can be used for 50 years or more, which exceeds the lifetime of reinforced concrete sewage treatment plants. However, when designing the products, it is necessary to determine whether the tank should be manufactured using the continuous winding method or the spiral-crossflow method. The main problem in selecting the manufacturing method is to determine the stability of the structure against vertical loads from the soil mass. The continuous winding method provides high circular stiffness, hence resistance to various influences, while the spiral cross winding method deteriorates circular stiffness and reduces the cost of the product. The article examines constructed GRP structures made using different methods and located at different depths. The tests are carried out to study the strength characteristics of the material on the basis of the Plant of composite materials, the ring stiffness and the modulus of elasticity are determined according to GOST R 54925-2012, to confirm the data obtained, a comprehensive calculation is performed in the Midas GTS NX software using a work model (structure + soil). The Mohr-Coulomb model was selected as a model to describe the soil, the material characteristics were set according to the data obtained from the tests. The results of surveys and calculations proved the inability to use GRP containers manufactured by the spiral cross-winding method because of low circular stiffness resulting in loss of load-bearing capacity of the structure and further ingress of soil inside the container.

The overlapping time of the layers during the layer-by-layer laying of the concrete mixture during the construction of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures is an important technological parameter of concreting, linking the rate of concreting, the thickness of the laid layers and the design parameters. For traditional concrete mixtures compacted by vibration, this parameter is determined by the persistence of the concrete mixture, taking into account its temperature. When using self-compacting concrete mixtures, the time of overlapping layers, in addition to traditional factors, significantly depends on the period of formation of the "elephant skin". The influence of the overlapping time of the layers on the strength of their adhesion, depending on the properties of the concrete mixture and the method of its laying, was studied. The ultimate tensile strength in bending was used as a criterion for adhesion strength. It has been confirmed that when using a traditional concrete mix compacted by vibration without superplasticizing additives based on polycarboxylate esters, the overlapping time of the layers of 2 hours provides a seam of equal strength with the main body. For self-compacting concrete mixes using vibration when laying subsequent layers after the first, the overlapping time corresponds to the storage index and increases to 6 hours, and when layered without vibration, the adhesion strength decreases by about 20%, 70% and more than 90% with an overlapping time of 2.4 and 6 hours, respectively.

One of the most massive polymer waste of consumption is car tires that are going out of service. The disposal of such tires at a solid waste landfill is an extremely inefficient way of their disposal, entailing an increase in the area of landfills and an increase in negative environmental impact. The least financially and labor-intensive way of processing automobile tires is grinding into fractional crumbs. To reduce the costs of sorting and further grinding of tires, a shredder with a dispersion of 3 mm is used. The article suggests the use of rubber crumbs as a binder when laying highways. Studies of indicators affecting the operational parameters of asphalt pavement at different values of the mass of rubber crumbs in comparison with a clean sample were carried out and the optimal specific mass of the added crumbs was determined, which was 15-20%.

To solve environmental problems related to the disposal of broken bricks, the preparation of new places for building residential complexes, as well as the expansion of the resource base for the production of building materials, clay brick scrap after the renovation of buildings is considered as a major substitute for concrete mixtures. The main physical and mechanical properties of concretes were studied. It has been established that concretes obtained on the basis of coarse aggregate from brick scrap have the properties of concretes based on natural aggregates of the M250-350 grade. The use of scrap clay bricks as fillers requires a special technology for preparing the latter in order to reduce its water demand. The conducted studies have shown that it is expedient to design concrete mixtures based on secondary resources based on a complex binder consisting of Portland cement, finely ground clay brick cullet and hyperplasticizer.

Computational and analytical studies of the influence of the duration of operation of nuclear power plants during the extension of their operation on the radiation changes in the concrete of the shaft of water-water power reactors (VVER) on various aggregates have been carried out. The studies were carried out using the existing experimentally tested methods for the analytical determination of radiation changes in concrete and their components. It has been established that during the extension of the operation of nuclear power plants with VVER reactors, the radiation changes in the concrete of the reactor shaft can be commensurate with the allowable changes in concrete or exceed them. It is shown that the radiation changes in the concrete of the reactor shaft increase with an increase in the duration of operation and depend on the power of the reactor (440 or 1000 MW), the thickness of the "dry" shield around the reactor, and the material of the concrete filler used. Radiation changes in all concrete of the NPP shaft with VVER-440 reactors will be more significant than in the concrete of the NPP shaft with VVER-1000 reactors. It has been established that the radiation changes in the concrete of the reactor shaft and the maximum duration of operation when using aggregates from various rocks differ significantly. It is noted which concretes (on which aggregates) have the smallest, largest and intermediate radiation changes. It is shown that with an increase in the operating temperature, the radiation changes in concrete will decrease, and the allowable operating time of the NPP will increase.

The article contains the results of verification of the finite element design model of work on axial compression of reinforced concrete structures with combined reinforcement. Structures with combined reinforcement (with non-removable steel-fiber concrete formwork) are widely used in the construction of nuclear power plant structures. Steel fiber reinforced concrete, in comparison with heavy concrete, has increased strength and deformation characteristics, due to which it performs the function of a bearing element that perceives compressive and tensile forces. The study of the joint work of steel fiber concrete and heavy concrete is a promising area of research. The developed finite element model of a reinforced concrete structure with a fixed steel-reinforced concrete formwork with a high degree of reliability allows us to determine the stress-strain state, the redistribution of forces between the cross-section elements and the parameters of cracking during loading. The described modeling technique is recommended to be used in the study of the operation of such structures.

The article considers the possibilities of using a large fraction of coal industry enrichment waste in road construction. The use of waste rock as a large aggregate in the composition of road concrete is proposed, because the enrichment waste is not disposed of properly, but is sent to the tailings dump. These dumps occupy large areas of land, thereby causing damage to the environment. The fractional composition of coal waste from the enrichment of the Gukovo-Zverevsky coal-bearing area is analyzed. From the results of sieving, it was seen that the structural composition satisfies the size of the fractions of a large aggregate for the concrete mixture. Analytical studies of the composition of the concrete coating were carried out. Based on the analysis of the composition of the concrete mixture, we came to the conclusion that tailings waste can be used as a major substitute. A comparative characteristic of the requirements put forward for the resulting mixture is presented. In our work, one of the main qualities of the road concrete pavement was tested - strength. The results of experimental strength tests of control samples of concrete with various types of aggregate are presented. Based on the results obtained, it is possible to draw a positive conclusion about the possibility of using enrichment waste as a large aggregate of concrete mixture in road construction according to technical and economic criteria.

The increasing problem of the formation of ash dumps in the Rostov region dictates the need to search for environmentally friendly methods of waste disposal in the heat and power sector. In this article, the ash and slag waste of the Novocherkassk GRES is considered. We analyzed the chemical and fractional compositions of the ash-slag mixture formed at a coal-fired thermal power plant and proposed the use of ash waste with a size of 10-100 microns in road construction as a micro-filler. To study the strength of the road surface using ash microparticles, we manufactured and tested cubes of modified concrete mixture for compression using a press machine. The obtained result showed that the use of ash as a micro-filler in concrete does not affect its strength in any way. The tests of control samples with the use of ash wastes showed an improvement in the water resistance and frost resistance of concrete while maintaining its strength.

The results of studies of the influence of various hardening conditions, incl. simulating conditions in the center of massive monolithic structures, for compressive and tensile strength, initial modulus of elasticity, hardening kinetics of self-compacting concrete of classes from B25 to B55. A classification of concretes according to the hardening kinetics is proposed, using as a criterion the time to reach a certain level from the design compressive strength under normal hardening conditions. The invariance of the dependence of the initial modulus of elasticity of the investigated concretes on the compressive strength on the age and type of concrete is established. A certain difference between the dependence "initial modulus of elasticity - ultimate compressive strength" and a lag in the rate of increase in tensile strength from the rate of increase in compressive strength of the studied concretes in the early period of hardening relative to traditional concretes of vibration compaction were revealed. It is shown that in the early period of hardening the studied concretes are characterized by a higher level of the conditional crack resistance criterion E0/Rt, which indicates to a certain extent a higher fragility of the studied concretes in this period.
