    Analysis of the environmental impact of construction by assessing the carbon footprint of buildings
    (Видавництво Львівської політехніки, 2020-02-24) Shekhorkina, Svitlana; Savytskyi, Mykola; Yurchenko, Yevhenii; Koval, Olena; Prydniprovska State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture
    The paper presents a methodology for carbon footprint assessment of buildings according to the current European standard. The analytical formulas are proposed to assess the carbon footprint through emissions calculation for the building life cycle including extraction, transportation, and processing of raw materials, construction and installation process, operation, maintenance, and repair, as well as liquidation and disposal. Beyond the life cycle boundaries, the possible benefits from recycling and reuse of building components and materials are considered.

    Basic principles of low-rise residential floating buildings design
    (Lviv Polytechnic Publishing House, 2015) Shekhorkina, Svitlana; State Higher Education Establishment “Pridneprovsk State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture”
    Floating building is a complex engineering structure, which combines functional features of typical homes and vessels. Currently there are many realized projects of buildings on the water, represented by different objects such as restaurants, hotels, cottage, etc. Following research aims to develop design procedure for low-rise residential floating buildings taking into account exploitation peculiarities. Results. The method of technical parameters of low-rise floating dwelling houses calculation, considering the demands of Ship register of Ukraine and current building codes have been proposed. Using 3D finite elements model of representative floating house, data about stress-strain state of floating building elements was obtained.
