Engineering and seismic inspection of memorial buildings of history, architecture and culture of the Republic of Buryatia

The results of engineering inspections of 80 memorial buildings of Buryatia taking into account high-seismic conditions of the territory of the republic within the last 30 years are generalized. The relevance of inspections is that the assessment of technical condition and seismic stability of historical memorial buildings as a result of engineering inspection precedes preparation of design and budget documentation, aseismic strengthening and restoration of memorial buildings. In the article, the reasons of serious damages of the bearing and protecting designs of the surveyed buildings are specified. It provides the assessment of the degree of operational suitability of buildings depending on a share of decrease in the bearing ability and operational characteristics of the designs established by normative documents.
