SPACE-PLANNING AND DESIGN SOLUTIONS OF INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS IN TERMS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Abstract

This article deals with the analysis of different trends of developing design, space-planning, structural and architectural solutions when constructing industrial enterprise buildings. The alternate solutions under consideration relate to modern environmental requirements. Assessment of their application is based on the principle of bio-positivity. The conclusion on their compliance and effectiveness is made. Some examples of certain technologies and materials application are given. In addition, the issues of the reduction of structural material consumption and labour costs minimization are discussed. The principles of architectural and construction bionics used when creating new structural materials and shapes can be distinguished as a separate promising line. Renewability of natural resources used for producing building materials is indicated as the most important criterion for compliance with environmental requirements because currently most building materials are produced from non-renewable sources of raw materials. The examples clearly illustrating this problem are given. Reduction of the consumption of materials as one of the key requirements for improving the overall environmental performance of the industrial zone should be provided when applying the solutions at all stages of the preparation and construction of industrial buildings. Substantiation of the choice and application of a particular material or technology is another important criteria in compliance with environmental requirements.
