The article presents the results of a study of the use of reinforcement in glued wooden elements of a circular mesh vault. The use of reinforcement in flat wooden structures has proven itself well, but the possibility of using reinforcement in large-span spatial structures still remains little explored. A number of authors presented conflicting data regarding the increase in the bearing capacity and rigidity of reinforced wooden glued elements. In the proposed work, a numerical experiment was performed to compare various options for reinforcing elements of a circular mesh vault. 10 options for external and internal reinforcement of elements with various materials were considered. As a result of the analysis of the stress distribution in the section of the elements, it was revealed that external reinforcement is a more priority method of reinforcement in terms of the stress-strain state of the element. The dependences of the deflection on the height of the section and the area of the reinforcement were determined. The most appropriate solution in terms of material consumption, economic efficiency and corrosion resistance is internal reinforcement with carbon composite reinforcement.

The article deals with the application of load-bearing and enclosing structures made of glued wood for multi-storey, including residential, buildings. Introduction. The relevance of the construction of wooden multi-storey buildings is confirmed by quite a large experience of construction abroad. Also, there is an increasing interest in this industry in Russia at present. Theoretical numerical study and technical and economic evaluation of the results. The stress-strain state and technical and economic indicators of three structural schemes of the building are analysed in the proposed work on the basis of the theoretical study: frame scheme - full frame with bearing columns, floor and roof beams; combined structural scheme - vertical bearing elements are wooden columns, glued wooden panel is used as floor and roof; frameless structural scheme - all the structural elements are made of glued wooden panels. Conclusions. As a result, the most rational and economically favourable structural solution of a multi-storey building made of glued wooden elements has been obtained.
