Comparability of estimates of the impact of gunpowder and gas-dynamic explosions on the stability of buildings and structures

A brief description of natural and artificial influences influencing the stability buildings structures is presented. Studying seismic resistance designed, under construction, erected, in operation requires time to wait for activity, which not permissible; costs manpower resources, inappropriate. In this regard, a working hypothesis has been put forward that by artificially acting on soils with help detonation wave energy, it will be possible induce vibrations, study behavior building into operation, entire structure as whole. The goal set: - investigate construction perceive vibrations caused unit soils. To achieve goal, tasks have identified. (blast) taken "tool" force action. theoretical foundations experiment are briefly presented developed scheme tube shock general view installation causing energy. technique carrying out field experiments
