To ensure the safety of capital construction facilities, it is necessary to anticipate and predict risks at the planning and design stage. Risk forecasting is carried out in both quantitative and qualitative measurement. The accuracy of the calculations requires consideration of a large number of different risks, their causes, possible consequences and the likelihood of their occurrence. At this scale of input, traditional ways of calculating construction risks are costly in terms of money and labour, and can be very time-consuming. Artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies automate the process of risk assessment and calculation. With digital technology, all the factors arising during construction will be taken into account in real time. Despite a number of limitations in the application of this technology, this method is the most promising and increasingly widespread.

In this scientific article, the issues of the interrelationships of flow parameters during the process of breaking down the general front of construction work, operations and related processes were considered. The main flow factors that have an impact on the time and duration of work are the number of private fronts (seizures), the time period, and the number of variations in the construction work itself. In this paper, the procedure for establishing the interrelationships of various parameters of molasses was considered in detail. According to the conclusions of the analysis, it was found that, taking into account the fact that the design of the calendar plan does not take into account the time intervals allocated for super-simple activities and operations of upcoming subspecies of construction work, it is necessary to additionally take into account the progression of the intervals of deployment and curtailment of construction work flows (resource complexes, private flows) and frontal complexes. It is also proved that the determination of the interrelationships of the flow parameters is associated with the fragmentation of the type of work into individual processes, and the general front of construction work into private ones, while the duration of the processes from which the schedule of work is formed is the main assessment of the effectiveness of the calendar plan.

The article analyzes approaches to assessing the degree of uniformity in the use of labor resources in the construction sector. The Herfindahl-Hirschman index is proposed as a key tool, which makes it possible to quantify the uniformity of the distribution of labor at various stages of the construction process. The use of this index contributes to more rational planning of labor costs, which helps to reduce downtime, prevent overloading of employees and, as a result, increase the overall efficiency of construction projects.

Polymer composite materials have been widely used in the construction industry. Currently, these materials are used to restore the operability of buildings and structures, regardless of their functional purpose. To date, the production process is carried out manually and in this regard, there is a need to develop tooling and organizational and technological methods to strengthen structures with polymer-composite materials that increase labor productivity. Due to the insufficient amount of research in this area, the regulatory documentation regulating the procedure for performing quality control of construction and installation works at all stages of restoration of building structures with polymer-composite materials is very limited. In this article, typical solutions for strengthening building structures are considered, various types of polymer-composite materials used in reinforcement are indicated, and the structure of the reinforcement process is described. In addition, an assessment of the time spent in the production of work manually and using small-scale mechanization with the use of additional equipment was carried out. It should also be noted that based on the study of domestic and foreign experience, issues requiring a systematic approach to their solution have been identified. The development and improvement of the regulatory framework, organizational and technological solutions will ensure the further development and application of composite materials in the construction industry.

For the effective preservation of cultural heritage sites (CHS), it is necessary to carry out a set of engineering, technical and scientific measures already at the stage of their registration and conservation. Proposed work on the repair, restoration and renovation of CHS is subject to a comprehensive study. The approach to the preservation of CHS should be systemic, including digital volumetric-spatial and planning solutions, technology and organization of repair, restoration and renovation, development of new repair and renovation binders and materials, soils, bases and foundations, calculations of dynamic and seismic impacts, etc. To develop modern repair and renovation binders and compositions, it is necessary to study traditional or so-called handicraft technologies that were used in the old days - in the late period and the Middle Ages. Knowledge of handicraft technologies allows us to develop binders and compositions that are as close as possible to the original (parent) ones. From the point of view of a natural study of handicraft technologies for the production of lime binders, the following are of interest: those found in the Shoan tower complex. Guli, Dzheyrakh district, Republic of Ingushetia, fragments of kilns, the study and research of which is the subject of this article.

The problem of energy saving in the construction industry involves the installation of additional thermal insulation of enclosing structures. But the thickness of the exterior wall structure has a limit. After a certain thickness, the monetary cost of insulation will grow more slowly than the amount saved on heating. On the other hand, a large chain of participants in energy-saving investment projects (IEP) leads to a significant payback period. It is proposed to use the technology of internal insulation of external walls with a minimum number of participants in the IEP. The calculation of the economic effect is given. The IEP assessment should be carried out taking into account energy consumption throughout the entire life cycle of the proposed building structure.

The paper considers the choice of the optimal technology for the construction of tongue-and-groove fencing based on the hierarchy analysis method. Decision-making in construction practice requires consideration of many factors, including internal (cost, reliability, speed of work) and external local conditions (risk of interruptions in the supply of materials, the influence of weather conditions, work in cramped conditions). The hierarchy analysis method makes it possible to formalize the decision-making process by structuring the task in the form of a hierarchy and comparing alternatives in pairs. In the course of the study, a comparative analysis of the technologies of hammering, vibration immersion and static indentation of sheet piles was carried out. Priority vectors for each criterion were calculated, and the consistency of the matrices was checked. The final choice of technology is justified based on the integration of internal and external factors. The results obtained allow us to recommend the optimal technology that takes into account the technical and organizational features of the construction process.

The article considers the sequence and technology of conducting surveying before starting excavation work on a bush site for the oil and gas industry. Surveying works play a key role, ensuring the necessary accuracy and reliability of the development of oil and gas fields. These works include conducting field measurements, detailed terrain analysis, calculating the volume of soil masses involved in the construction of earthworks, as well as monitoring geometric parameters and sand pits. An important stage of surveying is the creation of a detailed topographic map of the territory. Based on this map, it is possible to accurately plan the location of all future structures, ensuring optimal use of space and compliance with all regulatory requirements. The use of modern technologies, such as geodetic GPS systems and BIM technology, can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of these works. Special attention is paid to compliance with industrial safety standards, which minimizes costs and risks in the development of oil and gas industry enterprises. Thus, surveying is an integral part of the preparation and implementation of projects in the oil and gas field, contributing to the efficient and safe performance of all necessary work.

This article discusses effective ways and means for analyzing the condition of real estate objects, as well as predicting changes in their operational properties over time. These approaches open up prospects for improving the accuracy of predictions of wear patterns of both physical and functional components, as well as the aging of building structures, structures and engineering systems. Ultimately, this helps to maintain the proper level of their work and ensure high-quality functioning. Considerable attention is also paid to the general kinetic theory of structural wear of construction facilities, as it is known that this theory makes it possible to assess the corresponding reliability risks with fairly high accuracy, depending on the service life of the building structures of the facility. As a research tool, it is proposed to use a universal mathematical model of wear, which illustrates the dynamics of the processes of structuring and destruction of building systems throughout their entire service life. The model reflects the constant interaction of the structure with long-term impact factors. A statistical model has also been developed to determine the probability of the transition of building elements to a state of destruction due to the influence of adverse factors, which is directly related to the loss of their reliability.
