How the farm is calculated: recommendations of specialists
The load on the farm, in the general case, consists of coating, its own weight of the farm, loads from lamps, ties and suspension vehicles.
Theoretical and experimental studies are set that the stiffness of the farm nodes little affects the magnitude of the efforts arising in the elements and that when calculating reinforced concrete farms, their nodes can be considered articulated. The dimensions of the panels of the upper belt must be assigned so that the load from the coating panels is transferred to the nodes of the upper belt, thereby excluding the local bend. The load from the suspended transport should be applied to the nodes of the lower belt.
