The study shows a general concept of the design of energy-active segments, which are separated from conventional segments in the way that allows the equipment installation and replacement. Exemplary solutions for the design of energy-active segments, optimised with respect to the principle of minimum thermal strain and maximum structural capacity and reliability were given [34]. The following options of the building covers were considered: 1) regular structure, 2) reduced structure, 3) basket structure, 4) structure with a tie, high-pitched to allow snow sliding down the roof to enhance TE and EE obtainment. The essential task described in the study is the optimal adaptation of energy-active segments in large-volume buildings for extraction, transportation and storage of energy from solar radiation.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Kształtowanie energoaktywnych segmentów hal}, title={Shapes of energy-active segments of steel buildings}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/84038/mainfile.pdf}, keywords={przekrycie energoaktywne, hala energoaktywna, probabilistyczna optymalizacja, segment dylatacyjny, segment energoaktywny, EC – energia cieplna, EE – energia elektryczna, energy-active cover, energy-active steel building, probabilistic optimisation, expansion segment, energy-active segment, thermal energy (TE), electrical energy (EE)}, }
