Wide integration of computing resources into physical processes resulted into evaluation of new concepts and evaluation of a concept of cyber-physical sysems in particular. The article reveals an approach of implementation of cyber-physical processes into construction field. Since the process of construction faces the problems, which were traditionally considered as poorly formalized, that leads to an accumulation and transfer of huge amounts of often heterogeneous in its structure and purpose of information. As a result of a detailed analysis of the prerequisites for the creation, structure and functions of cyber-physical systems, the authors establish that the solution of such problems is engaged in cyber-physical systems. The importance of the use of cyber-physical systems in the construction industry is due to its significant role in the economy of any country. The authors identify a number of areas of application of cyber-physical systems in construction, such as monitoring and control of various parameters and systems, logistics and many others. Further studies of the authors need the development of specific algorithms for the implementation of cyber-physical systems in solving these problems.

This article discusses the basic principles of the use of structural membranes in the reconstruction of buildings and structures. Three principles of intervention in the existing architecture are described in detail. The first is to preserve the historical appearance and character of the building. The second is the scale of the new and old parts of the building. The third is the difference and the possibility of reorganizing new designs. The characteristics of the goals, the achievement of which each of these principles is directed, are given. Using the example of several buildings, we analyzed the use of textile membranes to achieve the main goals of reconstruction, described the positive and negative aspects of restoration using textile membranes. These buildings include: a church on a hill in Corbera d'Ebr, Spain (roof restoration), the central courtyard of the Palacio de Mineria, Mexico (creating coverage over a yard area), Salzburg residence, Austria (sliding roof). In conclusion, conclusions were made about the advantages of using membranes for the preservation of historical heritage and possible prospects for the development of fields of application of this design.

Traditional methods of assessing the effectiveness of investment and construction projects do not take into account the possibility of changing the conditions of construction, the intensity of development of capital investments, depending on the prevailing conditions. This leads to the need to develop new methodological approaches to make rational decisions on the allocation of investments in the implementation of construction production. The article proposes to use the model of option pricing for a phased assessment of the effectiveness of the investment and construction project, depending on the changing factors of the internal and external environment.

The traditional approach to designing seismic resistant buildings is to provide the building with strength, rigidity and inelastic deformation capacity. modern methods of protection, in contrast, are not to strengthen the building, but in its ability to relax forces and stresses. There are three main methods used in the design of earthquake-resistant objects. 1. The use of seismic insulating basement. This system provides isolation only in the horizontal direction and is rigid or semi-rigid in the vertical direction. 2. The use of devices that dissipate the energy of an earthquake. In the building, seismic dampers are installed, which reduce the magnitude of vibrations, turning the kinetic energy of the vibrations into thermal energy. 3. Installation of active seismic resistance monitoring systems (active method). Such an active feedback control system contains three main elements: a. Sensors for measuring external excitation; b. Computer hardware and software; c. Drives to provide the necessary control forces. At present, the most popular is the hybrid method of semi-active control, which combines the advantages of a seismoisolating basement with passive shock absorbers, which is much more economical in comparison with the active method.

Over time, residential buildings under the influence of physical deterioration, as well as moral degradation need to be transformed. Experience in the redevelopment of residential buildings of the 1960s – 1990s. built in the Republic of Belarus, as well as in other countries of the former USSR, testifies to the significant resource intensity of this process, which is due to a certain “rigidity” of the structural and technical characteristics of the reconstructed buildings. Given that during the life cycle global housing redevelopment measures may be needed every 30–35 years, questions of reducing resource intensity during this type of work are an important factor in optimizing the process of operating the housing complex as a whole.
