Economic development directly depends on the creation of a network of roads of the highest category. Major road construction requires large capital investments and less funds are allocated for the operation of existing roads and infrastructure. Instead of replacing bridge structures, it is necessary to use their reconstruction. The article discusses the problem of reconstruction of bridge structures, namely the restoration of carrying capacity, which has decreased during many years of operation. The relevance of the study, its goals and objectives are noted. A classification of reinforcement structures according to various criteria is proposed. The types of bridge reinforcements often used in practice, their advantages and disadvantages, are analyzed. The presented material is illustrated with photographs of objects. Successful reconstruction directly depends on the qualifications of designers and contractors, since with insufficient reinforcement, the span continues to work and is overloaded and gradually collapses. A modern method of reinforcement based on the use of carbon composite is presented. Significant disadvantages of this method for strengthening bridges and its modification using a tensioning device to secure and tension the carbon lamellas have been noted. The use of a tensioning device allows the superstructure to be partially unloaded from permanent and temporary loads. The main conclusions are presented.

The modern cycle of creating simulation models is not complete without analysts, modelers, developers, and specialists from various fields. There are numerous well-known tools available to simplify simulation modeling, and in addition, it is proposed to use large language models (LLMs), consisting of neural networks. The article considered the GPT-4 model as an example. Such models have the potential to reduce costs, whether financial or time-related, in the creation of simulation models. Examples of using GPT-4 were presented, leading to the hypothesis that LLMs can replace or significantly reduce the labor intensity of employing a large number of specialists and even skip the formalization stage. Work has been conducted comparing the processes of creating models and conducting experiments using different simulation modeling tools, and the results have been formatted into a comparative table. The comparison was conducted based on the main simulation modeling criteria. Experiments with GPT-4 have successfully demonstrated that the creation of simulation models using LLMs is significantly accelerated and has great perspective in this field.

A new building structure is proposed - a welded steel I-beam with a prestressed perforated wall. The prestress in the beam is created by stretching the web and subsequent welding with chords. Before prestressing, holes are cut in the wall. Using the LIRA-SAPR software package, a model is proposed that can be used to study the operation of a prestressed perforated beam (PNPB) structure. The influence of various forms of voids in the wall on the change in the stress-strain state of steel I-beams prestressed by the wall drawing is studied. A preliminary assessment was made of the favorable effect of prestressing in a conventional perforated beam on the stress-strain state of beams with different forms of perforations in the web.

Based on the results of research and prospecting work on the territory of the Czech Republic, 6 forecast areas have been identified that are promising for the identification of deposits of carbonate, halogen and clay raw materials, mainly as lime, cement and multi-purpose. The work uses methods of analytical research and scientific generalizations, expert assessments, process modeling and system analysis. The classification of inorganic binders was performed, which for the first time included organic-inorganic binders and additives in repair and restoration binders and compositions. As a result of exploratory research, it was proposed to repair, restore and restore historical and cultural monuments using the ones developed at the Kh.I. Ibragimov RAS of modern technologies and materials for repair and restoration work. To assess and correct the scientific problem associated with the development of repair and restoration binders and repair and restoration compositions, a review of historical experience was made.

The article discusses the developed model for recognizing a clothing brand by image. The model not only predicts the type and brand of clothing, but can also determine their similarity. At the initial stage, a dataset was collected containing images of clothing from various brands with a total volume of 9,000 images. In this work, the ViT (Vision Transformer) neural network architecture was used, a model for working with images, which was presented by experts from Google Brain. The vit-base-patch16-224 model acted as a representative of the transformer architecture. Before training, all images were converted to black and white, and data augmentation was also used: image rotation by a random angle, mirror transformation. All photos have been normalized – pixel coordinates have been adjusted to the interval [0,1].

In the context of the development of energy-efficient construction production, the issue of eliminating the irrational consumption of fuel and energy resources and regulating their consumption in the course of construction and installation work, including the demolition of an object, has been updated. The article discusses the features of the production of dismantling works in the process of renovation of residential buildings, taking into account the consumption of fuel and energy resources by the main consumers - means of mechanization. On the example of a five-story brick residential building, the total energy consumption during demolition by the method of mechanical collapse and element-by-element disassembly with the preservation of suitable materials was determined, and the relationship between these two options was established. The calculations showed that the consumption of fuel and energy resources during the element-by-element dismantling of all building structures with the preservation of suitable materials for brick heated buildings is 55.3% less compared to dismantling the building by the collapse method; in monetary terms, the energy costs for option 1 exceed the costs for option 2 by 1.55 times.
