Resumo

Detailed neostructural zoning with typification of tectonic structures should be performed before engineering surveys on the territory of the newest orogens or their large parts. A medium-scale neostructural zoning of the central segment of the Greater Caucasus megavault was carried out. It showed a significantly complex structure of the previously distinguished regional neotectonic bodies. The neotectonic structural plan is less differentiated in the north and east of the segment and it is more differentiated in the southern and western parts. A significant transformation of all local structures and regional suture zones is shown. It is connected with the fact that the newest structures are produced by orogenic uplift, and the older ones were formed under the conditions of horizontal compression. The results of neotectonic zoning are used in engineering, hydrogeological and geoecological surveys for construction design. They are important for paleoecological research, for example, in the study of archaeological sites.
