The article deals with the environmental safety of construction production, as well as the process of operation using examples of hydraulic structures. The purpose of the article is to show the growing importance of taking into account environmental decisions and measures in the design of the construction project and operation manual. The objectives are to identify and systematize implemented examples of environmental solutions. The objects of the study are hydraulic structures: mooring, river and shelf. The tasks are solved by methods of searching for information on the issues under consideration as part of the analytical review, with further discussions and conclusions. It was revealed that in recent years, environmental expertise has become more stringent in assessing and allowing hydraulic facilities to begin construction and installation work and commissioning, due to the accumulated negative experience of accidents, flooding and other harmful environmental influences. As a result of the analytical review, we obtain generalized conclusions on modern trends in orienting new construction in the primary interests of environmental protection.
The use of recycled materials as a product of household waste recycling to reduce environmental pollution, as well as to obtain cheap aggregate for the manufacture of concrete is considered. During the laboratory tests, the strength of concrete was found by a non-destructive method of controlling the strength of materials - by the method of a shock pulse using an electronic strength meter IPS-MG4.01. The uniformity and class of concrete are determined on the basis of measuring the time and speed of propagation of ultrasound in them. Compression tests were carried out on parallelepiped samples of 390×190×188 mm in size, consisting of Portland cement, sand and household garbage. Significant differences were found from the indicators of the considered analogues, such as relatively low values of strength and frost resistance of the samples; but at the same time, the low cost of finished products due to the actually free aggregate, as well as the relatively low weight of the samples. Recommendations are given on the selection of the ratio of aggregate components to improve the properties of concrete as a whole. Areas of application for concrete blocks from household waste are offered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
