The lack of water resources determines the problem of their rationing. Existing water consumption standards provide for a wide range of daily consumption values. This does not take into account possible measures to save water, provided for by the concept of buildings with a zero balance of water consumption. In addition, the technical specifications for the design of water supply systems include, for economic reasons, the smallest possible number of residents. The actual occupancy may exceed the planned one by several times, which requires further investment of additional funds already in the reconstruction of the newly built network. The objective of the study is to develop an analytical model of water consumption, the analysis of which allows us to evaluate the dynamics of changes in the specific water consumption with a variable population.

Due to the increasing pace of construction and overhaul of roads, there is a need to introduce more economical and efficient technologies. One of such technologies is soil stabilization. Based on the study of various scientific literature and project documentation, typical soils of the foundation and roadbed of the Kirov region have been established, and their features have been identified. During the study of the soils of the region, several dangerous geological processes were discovered that affect the operation and construction of roads. The article analyzes various methods and techniques of stabilization of heaving soils, as well as possible design solutions for the construction of a layer of modified soil. In addition, the mechanisms by which stabilization is carried out and cases of their application were given. In the course of the study, the main types of stabilizing additives, their features and principle of operation were considered. In order to identify the degree of influence of various binders on the technological sequence of construction, variants of schemes for the production of work on soil reinforcement are presented, depending on their types. According to the results of the study, it was concluded that the stabilization technology is one of the most modern, efficient and cost-effective and provides various advantages in comparison with other alternative methods of strengthening of heaving soils. The relevance of this method for the Kirov region is also proved.

The object of the research is the method of cutting tool wear control that provides evaluation of the periodicity of cutting tool replacement on the basis of vibration signals. Noise and vibration meter VShV-003-M2 is used for registration of vibration level in the process of parts processing. A procedure of determining the index of catastrophic cutting tool wear according to the vibration index with the use of the autocorrelation function and the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the dynamic system is developed. Measurements of vibration readings of a batch of parts in wave-file format were made, by processing the readings an array of data - vibration indicators, allowing to estimate the process of the cutter wear development during the machining process was obtained. Providing control of catastrophic wear of cutting tools is necessary for timely replacement of cutting inserts.

When clearing territories for the construction and / or subsequent maintenance of such infrastructure facilities as construction sites, airfield territories, right-of-way for roads and railways, heat supply routes, and so on, work is often carried out to remove growing undesirable tree and shrub vegetation, At the same time, the problem of assessing the quality of the performance of these works is relevant. The authors of the article consider the issues of mathematical modeling for assessing the quality and effectiveness of the work performed to clear the territories of a number of the above infrastructure facilities, give the boundary values ​​of the criteria for assessing the quality of the measures taken to remove vegetation, and formulate a conclusion about the advantages of the developed mathematical model.

The paper studies the problems of heat transfer intensification in shell-and-tube heat exchangers used in the heat supply of buildings. The solution to this problem is to use the circulation of the coolant flow in a pulsed mode, with different frequency pulsations. Based on experimental studies to determine the efficiency of a shell-and-tube water-to-water heat exchanger, a method has been proposed, in accordance with which it has been proved that the pulsed mode, compared to the stationary one, is the most effective in terms of key indicators, such as the heat transfer coefficient and thermal power.

The support in the bottom-hole zone of the trunk is a system of rings made of monolithic concrete having a different hardening period, which increases from the face up the trunk and is determined by the duration of the tunneling cycle. The strength and deformation parameters of the concrete support depend on the age of the concrete. Thus, to determine the strength of concrete in the early stages of concrete hardening, various empirical dependencies are used that link the strength of concrete at the design age with the strength at the required age. Based on a series of calculations performed by the finite element method, it was found that the change in the penetration rate does not significantly affect the relationship between stresses and deformations when static equilibrium is reached in the ""support – array"" system, which occurs at a high penetration rate at a greater distance from the bottom of the trunk. At the same time, intensive loading of the support at an early age can disrupt the process of natural hardening of concrete, lead to a violation of its structure, the development of fracturing, which will entail a decrease in the bearing capacity and water resistance of the support, a decrease in its durability.
