Mechanical Behavior of Aluminum Matrix Composites in the Elements of Building Structures

Prospects for the application of aluminum matrix composites as a material for building structure are considered and analyzed in the context of current trends in the development of the construction industry. The possibility of replacing standard aluminum alloys with aluminum matrix composites in the manufacture of small-sized parts for building structures is considered, using the example of connectors. The selection of a composite for modeling was carried out, three-dimensional models were developed, and the stress–strain state was calculated in the LIRA software package under the condition of rigid fastening, taking into account the loading conditions. Analysis of the results of computer simulation of the mechanical behavior of aluminum matrix composites as part of a real building structure confirms that they perceive the applied load without deformation and destruction.
