Fastener standard for wooden house-building


On 25th 4 – 26th November, the Forth Congress of the Association of Wooden House-Building took place at Saint Petersburg Architectural and Construction University.


75 representatives of the industry sector, as well as media, educational establishments and foreign guests from Belarus, Ukraine, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Denmark and Estonia took part in the congress events. According to reports from the Association of the Wooden


House-Building, the market for low-rise and wooden house building continues to grow, with a 3.5 fold growth in wooden house construction between 2002 and 2009. Recently developed construction techniques have reassured concerns about potential


High-tensile fasteners production in Russia


High-tensile fasteners for the machine building industry will be produced in Kolomna, around 100 kilometres southeast of Moscow.


T


he location was chosen for the establishment of a specialised plant for production of high-tensile fasteners, aimed at being supplied to manufacturing enterprises throughout the European part of Russia.


The foundation stone of the future MTE-Kolomenskiy Plant was placed on 27th


October. By 2020 another new production facility for high-tensile


fasteners is expected to be established in Nyazepetrovsk, Chelaybinskaya Region in the Southern Urals. The development program presupposes diversification of the city’s main enterprise, the Nyazepetrovskiy Crane-building Plant, to production of metal structures, founding and high strength fasteners. Realisation of the program will lead to the creation of 500 new worksites.


fire hazards. The main discussion focused on certification and standardisation in wooden house building. Amongst other important issues discussed at the congress


were questions about male thread screws used in wooden constructions. Professor Naychuk (Belarus), Peter Lang, the representative of Italian Rothoblaas Company and postgraduates of the University reported on the problem. They paid particular attention to the standard developed by the Association - “Wooden Constructions. Design of wooden joints using screws”.

imultaneously, the Science and Research Centre Mosty has developed a normative document regarding detachable connections in steel construction of bridges using bolts. Both normative documents came into force


at the beginning of 2011. They are based on new science and research and design-engineering developments, conducted by SRC Mosty and tested on real bridge constructions. All are aimed at improving safety in construction operation, reducing


osMetiz coordinator A.A. Semenov said: “Our exhibition is the largest annual forum pulling together numerous enterprises and producers of hardware products and hardware components.”


Products range from fasteners for mechanical engineering,


automotive, aerospace, construction, woodworking and furniture manufacturing industries. Exhibits also include glues, sealants and adhesives. There will be equipment for fastener manufacturing.

New GOST for bridge-building fasteners


The Federal Agency of the Russian Federation for Technical Regulation and Metrology approved on December 2009 and brought into force on 1st

labour intensity, reorganising labour processes and decrease environmental impact. Newly developed joints using conical high-tensile bolts with


round heads, fitting tightly into holes, are reported to have 1.5 to 3 times higher load bearing capacity than friction joints using cylindrical bolts. Accordingly, the quantity of bolts and holes at abutment joints is reduced, together with the labour intensity for production and assembly of the structures.
