8. OBJECT DESCRIPTION
8.1. Description of object
Gate House object include the following buildings:
A. Metal cantilever
B. P + 1 office building
C. Control cab.
A. Metal cantilever is a building with the superstructure in frames with 2 spans of 10,00 m and
7 bays.
The frames are made of metal profiles with the following sections:
- Caisson column of 2U 30
- Beams I 40
- Wedges I 18
- Bracings L 60 x 60 x 6
At + 4,60 m level all over the length of the building in the central axis, it was provided a metal
foot-bridge of 2,60 m width. This one is supported by 2 consoles I 20, welded to the central
columns. The foot-bridge consists of longitudinal beams I 16 and marginal beams U 16. The
joining is made by welding.
B. P + 1 office building is a building with the resistance structure from bearing masonry of 25
cm thickness consolidated with columns and girders.
The building is ground-floor and floor;
The floors and the roof are made of reinforced concrete of 10 cm, bearing on girders and
beams of reinforced concrete.
C. Control cab is a floor building made by sandwich pans OLTPAN and metal frame of
square tube. Tube 40 x 40 x 4 is put on a reinforced concrete basement with a height of 70 cm
and a thickness of 25 cm.

8.6. Rolled steel characteristics
Steel OL 37 2 K steel of general use for buildings with minimum breaking strength of 370
N/mm2.
Rc = 240 N/mm2
Re = 192 N/mm2
E = 210.000 N/mm2
G = 81.000 N/mm2

8.7. Infrastructure
Piles and foundation beams
It were stipulated piles of 600 mm with the length of 26,00 m, for which it was calculated the
bearing capacity.
It resulted:
- 24 piles for A building (metal cantilever)
- 12 piles for B building (P + 1 office building)
Bearing capacity of the piles
Calculation formula
R = Km x Rn x A
K = 0,5
m=1
d 2
A=

Rn = normal resistance of the soil substracting the columns weight rests a bearing
capacity of 100 to. R = 0,5 x 1,00 x 8500 x 0,282 = 1198,5 KN (119,8 t0)

STRUCTURAL CALCULUS RESULTS

Piles - the strains transmitted by the columns and the foundation beams to the piles due to the
following maximum forces in the columns head.
A. Building: - M = 3,02 tm
- N = 14 t
B. Building:

- M = 7,4 tm
- N = 37 t
