The introduction of information modeling technologies (TIM) into construction practice is irreversible all over the world. The effectiveness of the use of TIM has been proven at all stages of the life cycle of capital construction facilities: at the pre-design phase, at the stages of design, construction, operation, repair, reconstruction, de-installation and disposal. A variety of software for digitalization of construction allows you to choose the optimal product for a specific type of task. Until recently, most of the Russian information modeling technology market belonged to software products of foreign IT companies. Due to the changed conditions, there is a forced transition to domestic TIM systems. The challenges that arise in this case require joint actions by government agencies, software developers in the field of TIM, construction companies and educational organizations.

The article presents conditions for ensuring safe performance of construction and installation works at heights when constructing or reconstructing agricultural production buildings on the basis of collective protective equipment. The article shows structural designs and main parameters of fall arrest devices and safety fences that are intended for buildings of those types. In such protective equipment, synthetic netting materials are a defining element that ensures the required safety level. The article specifies the composition of process control and management documentation that determines a procedure and a sequence for use of collective protective equipment during construction and installation works. Types of works are specified that require that protective equipment is used to prevent objects and people from falling from the height of a rigid-frame building under construction. The article suggests the composition of data for determining the quantity of safety fence sections to be installed along the building perimeter. The developed calculation and test procedure for prototypes of fall arrest devices allowed us to establish that the net fabric camber and values of dynamic loads occurring if an object fell onto the net were interrelated to a certain extent. The performed studies produced dependences of net camber values versus the tension value of the securing rope. Taking into account the requirement of injury prevention in the event of a person’s falling onto a net, dynamic effects on the fallen object when caught by a fall arrest device were evaluated. The established negative accelerations of an object falling from height onto a fall arrest device’s net indicate that dynamic overloads occurring at this are within the permissible limit values.

The purpose of this work is to study the thermal stress of the furnace of a fire-tube boiler and its effect on the design of the boiler. To study the effect of thermal stress and furnace proportions on the ratio of heating surface areas, the calculated resistance was tested. Calculations of heat-tube boilers of sectional hot-water boilers with different proportions of the furnace at different thermal loads of the same furnace volume are performed. The calculation of each heating surface is carried out by the method of successive approximations, based in this case on the chord method. In the calculation process, the flue gas temperature at the outlet of the heating surface was first set, and then refined by successive approximations. To reduce the overall balance of the boiler, another global approximation is made when the temperature determined at the outlet of the last heating surface is set at the beginning of the calculation – in the heat balance, where it affects the loss with outgoing gases and the efficiency of the boiler. It is determined that the optimal.

Flexibility is the ability of a system to respond to changes in the external environment. To ensure the progress and implementation of large-scale projects, they as systems must have the ability to promptly respond and adapt to changes in the environment and requirements. Resources are limited in the implementation of large construction projects. If the cost of construction increases to such an extent that the customer or investor cannot cover it, then the implementation of such a project becomes impossible. Similarly, it is necessary to control the timing and efficiency of construction. Thus, under conditions of limited resources, the efficiency of their use and management determines the success of the project and the achievement of the set goals. Communication and regulation of relationships between members of large design organizations, the efficiency of information transfer and the ability to share resources by participants play an important role in flexibility in project implementation. Flexible management of organizational structures effectively solves problems such as changes, conflicts, risks, etc. Based on the theory of flexibility, this article analyzes how, through coordinated work, difficulties and problems in the construction process are effectively solved in large-scale project organizations, how the implementation of set tasks is controlled.

The article is devoted to the issue of making organizational and technological decisions when the stock of information for alternatives to choosing the required tasks is either very small, or they are changing drastically. Since it is not easy to make an organizational and technological business decision due to the fact that it is not clear what the result will be, it is proposed to use game theory in conditions of uncertainty. What kind of decision will be made and which of the available strategies the designer will adopt depends on what economic effect will be obtained as a result of the implementation of the organizational and technological solution being developed. Game theory is a special class of mathematical models for decision-making under specific conditions. By choosing solutions in the wake of uncertainty, game theory formalizes possible knowledge about the course of action of the participants in the game in certain conflict situations and allows you to mathematically substantiate knowledge about a rational course of action in certain conditions. When constructing construction projects in environmentally unfavorable conditions, the risk matrix is compared and the best option for the development of a construction project is determined.
