Monitoring of the technical condition of structures and building materials of an elevator silo housing

Abstract

The results of assessing the technical condition of the elevator silo housing, obtained on the basis of a visual instrumental examination using the non-destructive testing method, are considered. Existing defects and damages in the building materials and structures of the building, which adversely affect its performance, were identified. An assessment was made of the state of foundations, walls, floors of the silo and columns installed at the corners of the silo at the height of the silo. The results of the assessment of individual results of the performed instrumental studies of structures and building materials at the object under study are presented. The technical condition of the building as a whole is assessed as a limited operational technical condition. The phase of the period of operation of the building was determined. Recommendations have been developed to ensure the safe operation of the building under study. It has been established that it is necessary to strengthen the structural elements of the building for further safety during the operation of the elevator. It is proposed to introduce the necessary measures to improve the reliability and strength properties of individual structural elements after a period of their long-term operation.
