Protection of buildings and structures against progressive collapse within the framework of legislative and regulatory requirements

At present, the current legislative and regulatory documents do not contain a clear and unambiguous answer to the question, what buildings and structures should be designed resistant to progressive collapse. In this regard, the analysis of the legal and regulatory requirements of the need for calculations to prevent the progressive collapse of buildings and structures due to hypothetical or suspected local destruction is presented. The main legislative requirements of technical regulation in the field of ensuring the mechanical safety of buildings and structures, as well as the requirements of regulatory documents regarding the design of the protection of building and structures against progressive collapse are considered. The analysis of the fundamental principles features of the calculation for the structural protection against progressive collapse is given. Some issues discussed by the professional community in the direction of possible ways of solving the actual problems of the presented problem are considered. The conclusion is made about the need for further dialogue of the professional community on the development of a common position on the protection of buildings and structures from progressive collapse, which should be reflected in the legislative and regulatory requirements.

Введение. В лечении пациентов с тромбозом поверхностных вен (ТПВ) врачи-специалисты руководствуются двумя регламентирующими документами: Приказом Минздрава России и соответствующими Клиническими рекомендациями. Содержание этих двух документов в некоторых аспектах не совпадает, что вызывает определенные сложности в лечении данной нозологии. Цель исследования: изучение состояния реальной клинической практики в области лечения пациентов с ТПВ. Материалы и методы. Проведен анонимный опрос 128 врачей-специалистов, занимающихся лечением заболеваний вен. В опросник было включено 10 вопросов, касающихся выбора тактики лечения, применения фармацевтических препаратов и методов оперативного лечения. Результаты. Наибольшие расхождения Рекомендаций и клинической практики касаются стационарного лечения, антикоагулянтной терапии и возможности применения эндовенозной термокоагуляции. Несмотря на детальную проработку аспектов лечения пациентов с ТПВ, в актуальных Клинических рекомендациях имеется достаточное количество противоречий с Приказом Минздрава России. Это вызывает повышенные юридические риски при лечении данной категории пациентов. Заключение. В настоящий момент существует запрос со стороны профессионального сообщества на пересмотр Приказа Минздрава России № 837н от 09.11.2012 ввиду появившихся новых фармацевтических препаратов и методов лечения за период с момента подписания Приказа по настоящее время. Introduction. In treatment of patients with surface vein thrombosis (SVT) specialists are guided by two regulatory documents — the Order of the Russian Ministry of Health (further — the Order) and the corresponding Clinical Recommendations (further — Recommendations). The content of these two documents does not coincide in some aspects that cause certain difficulties in treatment of this nosology. Aim: to study the state of real clinical practice in treatment of patients with SVT. Materials and methods. An anonymous opinion of 128 specialists in treatment of vein diseases was received. The questionnaire included 10 questions concerning the choice of treatment tactics, use of pharmaceuticals and methods of surgical treatment. Results. The largest discrepancies between the Recommendations and clinical practice relate to inpatient treatment, anticoagulant therapy and endovenous thermocoagulation application. In spite of detailed elaboration of patient’s treatment with SVT there are enough contradictions in current Recommendations with the Order. This causes increased legal risks during treatment of this category of patients. Conclusion. Currently there is a request from the professional community for revision of the Order № 837n from 09.11.2012 due to appearance of new pharmaceuticals and treatment methods during the period from signing the Order to the present.

As noted by a number of experts in the field of the quality of construction of capital construction objects, at present there are no industry-specific methods for assessing the quality of construction and installation works in construction. The quality assessment and acceptance of capital construction objects is carried out according to the criterion of compliance with the requirements established in the project documentation, the working documentation prepared on its basis and the requirements established in the regulatory documents. It should be noted that the more complex the object, the larger the construction volume, the longer the construction period of the object and the harder it is to achieve full compliance of the object with the established requirements due to the lack of a methodology for choosing organizational decisions, as well as changing regulatory requirements, technological variability, errors.The current situation necessitated the development of an assessment model and the adoption of organizational decisions to ensure the quality of construction. This article highlights and discusses the main factors affecting the quality of organizational decisions. A system for assessing the level of quality assurance of construction is proposed, taking into account the quality of organizational decisions and the main factors cited.

The purpose of the article is to present a new approach to building a competency model for a specialist in library and information activities. Methods used in the work: analysis and generalization of the content of domestic and foreign sources on the problem of professional education.The article presents an analysis of the lists of competencies of the Federal State Educational Standard, opinions of specialists in the field of library and information activities, an approximate list of the scientific (academic) library specialist’s competencies, prepared in 2017 by employees of SPSL SB RAS at the request of the St. Petersburg State Institute of Culture representatives.It is concluded that, taking into account numerous discussions about FSES and the professional standard of a specialist in library and information activities, it is necessary to combine the efforts of representatives of the professional community for to achieve consensus in this area and update the existing regulatory framework. It is also advisable to consider the possibility of creating competency profiles that would form the basis for the above-mentioned documents and ensure interests of organizations providing training in the field of library and information activities and institutions-employers.Novelty. Complex approach is proposed to build a competency model for a specialist in library and information activities, based on integration of approved regulatory documents and employers’ requests: for each group of competencies the basic minimum should be determined (approved by the federal authorities responsible for the state supervision and ensuring compliance of requirements in composition of labor functions, knowledge and skills in approved documents) and the variable part, ensuring compliance of competencies being formed with particularities of libraries of various types (public, academic, special).This requires development of a regulatory framework in the field of library and information activities (updating existing and developing new documents). The proposed competency model correlates with regulatory documents.Practical significance: a competency model is proposed, within which educational organizations, institutions of the library and information sphere can jointly form an effective process for training specialists.

The paper discusses the main requirements of Russian and foreign regulatory documents on vi-bration protection of the operator's workplace of wheeled and tracked vehicles. Their comparative analysis was performed. The normalization of the parameters of general vibration at the workplaces of operators of tractors and self-propelled agricultural vehicles in our country occurs in accordance with the requirements of SN 2.2.4 / 2.1.8.566-96, GOST 12.1.012-2004 and GOST 12.2.019-2015. The root-mean-square values of vibration accelerations for a certain period of exposure in each oc-tave (one-third octave) frequency band are allocated as the evaluation criteria. They are compared for compliance with the regulated values from a specific standard. At the international level, the ob-ject of compliance is the ISO 2631-1: 1997 standard, which establishes the requirements for vertical and horizontal vibration with a certain exposure time on a person from 1 minute to 24 hours in the frequency range from 1 to 80 Hz. The article shows that the most stringent requirements for the lev-el of local vibration are established in the Russian Federation. They provide clear regulation of the type of work performed, duration, magnitude, direction of existing loads, etc. Relatively soft re-quirements are in most European countries, except Poland, where the MPL is regulated taking into account the age, gender and condition of a person. In addition, in the regulatory documents of most foreign countries there are two and sometimes three indicators: threshold (upper and lower) values and MPL. When the threshold is reached, primary measures are usually initiated to counter harmful factors.

The features of legal and technical regulation are considered and the main shortcomings of these systems of public administration are identified. It is shown that they hinder the effective development of the underground space of Russian cities as a promising area of urban development. A related analysis of the results of the author's monitoring of regulatory documents in the field of integrated urban development of underground space, as well as the interim results of the legal research initiated by him, aimed at eliminating defects in federal legislation, is presented. In the context of legal regulation and trends in its development, a new Set of Rules (SR 473) concerning «underground urban planning»is analyzed in detail. The conclusion is made about the systemic shortcomings of this document, which are based on the subjective factor of the manifested «legal nihilism» in combination with the objective deficit and imperfection of the legislative sphere. Proposals are given for the harmonization of amendments and additions to SR 473 and other documents on standardization, depending on the nature and timing of the adoption of legislative initiatives. The topics discussed are of interest not only because of their novelty, but also because of the reality and prospects of the proposed administrative steps that can give impetus to spatial development on the model of a sustainable, viable and compact city.
