The relationship of architecture with the structural design of buildings and the construction process.

The experience of interaction shows that this is a battlefield of conflicts of architecture, building materials and technologies for performing construction processes, and there are many reasons for this.

This is determined by the modern system of training, the organization of the process of architectural and construction design in design organizations, the economics of design and construction and the legislative framework, as well as numerous other reasons.

Let's analyze them differentially. The modern education system is focused on the specialization of bachelors. And the curricula of various educational institutions are different, in some cases, radically for different training profiles. In general, this is correct, specialization improves the quality of training, the level of a specialist. But this does not mean that the architect should not know the technology of erection of buildings, because many architectural solutions, for example, sandwich panels are quite common in the construction of the rear and the architect should know technology of their application.

Failure by designers to understand the possibilities of building technologies leads to unsolvable situations. For example, during the construction of a residential building 75 m high, ventilated facade and a decorative cornice of the roof on the outer perimeter of the building below 3 m of the top of the parapet. Cornice made of three stainless steel rods with a diameter of 10 mm, installed after 1 m on consoles. In the absence of an assembly crane and a mast hoist, it is not an easy task to manually lift 15 tons of 6 m long rods up the stairs. But the main thing is that it is difficult to manually mount on smooth facades without windows and cornices.

It is impossible to use hinged cradles, because the cornice itself prevents them from moving along the roof. As a result of long quarrels between builders and designers about the impossibility of carrying out this work, and their conviction that there is no expediency in such an openwork design, tk. it just won't be visible from below, it was canceled.

Thus, with regard to the implementation of design solutions, we can talk about technical and technological capabilities, i.e. on technological approvals.

It is known that with uneven loading of the supporting structure, deformations in it and stresses can become higher than permissible. Even if the ratio of load to area of ​​application is less than with uniform load. This is especially critical for rod posts - columns, support rods of domed and hipped roofs. But such checks are not done.
