CALCULATION METHODS OF THE BEAM'S BEARING CAPACITY TAKING INTO ACCOUNT STIFFNESS OF BRICK VAULTED FILLING

Today the great number of buildings with vaulted brick plates on metal beams are still remaining, and some of them are in need of being renovated. The existing method of calculation of such constructions doesn't consider collaboration of beams with vaulted filling. That gives the underestimated value of the bearing capacity of beams. Inaccuracies of such calculation involve excess works on strengthening and replacement of construction. This work is devoted to a method of calculation of beam's bearing capacity taking into account stiffness of brick vaulted filling.
