The idea of urban planning continuity as dialectical and dynamic process is proposed. Is highlighted the concept of «succession of city planning structure» as the interaction between the successive stages of formation and development of planning structure, in which each stage contains all the preceding steps, thus preserving the most characteristic structural parts, elements and principles of their relationship throughout the development of the city.

In the article the existing typology of sanatoriums is considered. Its main social and economic, urban, functional and planning, compositional problems are represented. A new typology of sanatoriums in order to optimize the architectural and urban parameters, to improve social attractiveness and economic eff ectiveness is off ered. The new typology of sanatoriums includes two types: an integrated and a basic sanatorium. The integrated sanatorium is a multi-specialized or specialized sanatorium for diff erent age groups as part of a multifunctional medical complex. The basic sanatorium is a multi-specialized or specialized sanatorium for diff erent age groups, based on local balneoresources and modern spa concepts.

The article analyzes the history of op-art in design and function of optical illusions in the interior design of public spaces in a context of мodern design. Features of human perception of plane and spatial fi gures in environmental design ake also viewed.

The aim of this research is the selection of the consortium in aerobic conditions with the help of active sludge, enriched the culture of prokaryotic microorganisms, for increase of degree of biological wastewater treatment. The dependence of the viability of microorganisms in case of emergency discharges of industrial waste water is presented. The comparative analysis of the effi ciency of sewage treatment with usual and enriched active sludge is done.

Experience in organization of graduate qualifi cation work national competitions and student academic olympics for the speciality «Hydraulic Engineering» in Samara State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering is viewed. Information about winners and their eff ective construction solutions used in competitions projects is summarized.

The causes of dust air pollution during road construction are viewed. The particulate analysis of dust generated at different cycles of road works executed by the procedure of microscopic analysis of the particle size distribution is done. The proposed algorithm allows to receive more precise classification of mass distribution on diameters, to equip work facilities with efficient dust extraction systems on different stages of road construction works.

The proposed device is referred to building sphere. It’s oriented to strengthening of reinforced concrete hollow fl oor slab, damaged due to diff erent reasons including fi re or technological accident. Possible results of this device using are: signifi cant increase of strength and rigidity of fl oor slabs; signifi cant increase of real fi re-resistance of slabs; smooth unloading of damaged slab; regulation of unloading amount of reinforced slab. This proposed device is simple in design, it’s characterized by economy in using, negligeable restraint of operating envelope in altitude. Strengthening of reinforced fl oor slab does not require starting dimensions changes; steel is economize in mass and cut because of more strength reinforcement rods. Labor is saving.

New design models of walls with products of modifi ed fi bers in present conditions of design and operation according with new requirements of building regulations in the light of saving energy resources are viewed. Theory and results of heating calculation of construction fences are provided.
