INFLUENCE OF BRICK WALLS FROM LOCAL-MATERIALS ON THE WORK OF LINEAR ELEMENTS IN MONOLITHIC FRAME BUILDINGS IN REPUBLIC OF BURUNDI
Abstract
Ordzhonikidze str.3, Moscow, Russia, 115419 The article presents the results of numerical research on the work of columns and beams in monolithic frame building where the fillings are the brickwalls from local-materials in Repub- lic of Burundi. A comparison of the longitudinal forces arising in linear elements from the combined action of vertical and wind loadsis fulfilled. The distribution of forces in the frame in case of failure of brickwalls in the ground floor is studied. In addition, the quantitative as- sessment of the internal longitudinal forces transmitted to the foundation by the brickwallsis given
