Energy–active expansion segments of steel halls covered with a regular structure with a tie

The paper presents the concept of energy-active segments construction of steel halls covered with a structure with a tie which contain solar radiation energy absorbers (SE). The following factors were taken into account: 1) slope exceeding 20%, which enables self-clearance of snow from the cover surface and facilitates obtaining energy in the winter period; 2) reducing the width of energy-active expansion segments to 6x3=18m; 3) reducing thermal impact on internal forces and displacements of the structure elements; 4) parallel coupling of the structure elements to maintain load bearing capacity and reliability [2] above these recommended for RC2 class [3]; 5) dividing the cover structure into geometrically invariable assembly segments of the hall, which ensures safe and efficient assembly.
