A review of the problem of accounting for random factors in the scheduling of construction projects is considered. The problems of taking into account random factors in construction scheduling have been considered in works. However, these studies have not paid full attention to the course of construction for large projects. At the same time, scheduling problems are closely related to optimization of working hours and resource allocation in construction production. Such tasks are usually solved by considering several variants of the technological sequence of works, and the typology and variability of random factors are not fully taken into account. A number of researchers have the view that the determining factor in estimating the actual duration of construction is the reliability of suppliers and delivery of construction products. However, it is not possible to ensure the construction process in reality without interruptions in work. The main reason for this is random factors. It is suggested to take them into account on the basis of modern information technologies including artificial intelligence, stochastic approaches, probability theory and mathematical statistics.

During the construction of water treatment stations in group water pipelines, it exceeds 15 ... 30% of the cost of the entire system and directly depends on the technological scheme, the choice of which, in turn, is influenced by the quality of the water in the source and the performance of the station. In large group water supply systems, water from surface sources is usually used, which must be clarified, discolored, deodorized, and disinfected.

This article discusses the relationship of all stages of the life cycle of buildings on the basis of information-analytical system IAS HCS. The full life-cycle cost of a 1,000-seat school was calculated. Using the IAS HCS program, we made calculations of the costs of repair work on three models: without taking into account any repair work, taking into account the repair of the main structural elements and taking into account the repair of all elements, based on the standard operating time. Real estate life cycle cost analysis can be performed for both new and existing buildings of any type (residential and public). Evaluation of the total costs of the full life cycle of the object can be applied by both the developer and the owner of the building to further improve the management system of the property.

The design of new buildings and structures is currently a complex and multifunctional process divided into several main stages. A large number of design organizations engaged in the development of large investment and construction projects are constantly improving their activities in order to optimize production costs and increase the efficiency of design solutions. The development of new approaches that are beginning to be applied in design is very slow, which is explained by several reasons. These include a narrow range of software, the lack of a methodology that combines digital technologies and the principles of "lean" construction, which provides savings in consumed materials and resources, as well as shortening the design and construction of the facility. In this regard, consideration of issues related to the development of a new concept combining the principles of digital design and "lean" construction is currently very relevant.

Currently, the processes of designing buildings and structures are becoming more costly, as they require the involvement of more specialists, material and technical resources and a reduction in the calendar time of work. At the same time, the customer of the project requires optimization of design solutions in order to preserve the quality of the work carried out. In this regard, there is a need to develop a special design methodology, based on which it is recommended to use the principles of "lean construction", which can reduce the Customer's losses during project development.

The overlapping time of the layers during the layer-by-layer laying of the concrete mixture during the construction of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures is an important technological parameter of concreting, linking the rate of concreting, the thickness of the laid layers and the design parameters. For traditional concrete mixtures compacted by vibration, this parameter is determined by the persistence of the concrete mixture, taking into account its temperature. When using self-compacting concrete mixtures, the time of overlapping layers, in addition to traditional factors, significantly depends on the period of formation of the "elephant skin". The influence of the overlapping time of the layers on the strength of their adhesion, depending on the properties of the concrete mixture and the method of its laying, was studied. The ultimate tensile strength in bending was used as a criterion for adhesion strength. It has been confirmed that when using a traditional concrete mix compacted by vibration without superplasticizing additives based on polycarboxylate esters, the overlapping time of the layers of 2 hours provides a seam of equal strength with the main body. For self-compacting concrete mixes using vibration when laying subsequent layers after the first, the overlapping time corresponds to the storage index and increases to 6 hours, and when layered without vibration, the adhesion strength decreases by about 20%, 70% and more than 90% with an overlapping time of 2.4 and 6 hours, respectively.

The variety of options for construction of inverted roofs with exploited roof coverings necessitates an analysis of structural and technological solutions at the stage of variant design of exploited roofs. At present, there is no comprehensive assessment and analysis according to a system of criteria that sufficiently fully characterizes the design of the roof on a structural and technological basis. The study evaluates three basic grouped and systematized options for inverted roof construction (with supports, without supports and rooftop parking) by a system of criteria for an exact evaluation of the efficiency of a roof in construction projects using expert analysis. The proposed system of evaluation criteria makes it possible to determine the optimal solutions for inverted roofing in a practice of building construction in case of variant design.

A huge part of the territory of Russia is located in the permafrost zone. Ensuring the reliability of pipeline systems transporting hydrocarbons in these conditions requires an integrated approach that takes into account the structure of the soil, the peculiarities of construction methods, the temperature characteristics of the soil and the transported products. Evaluation of the interaction of the pipeline with frozen ground is an important factor in the design. And the justification of the choice of an engineering solution for the construction of pipeline systems, ensuring their stable position, is one of the tasks of our research. The gas pipeline at the Kamennomysskoye-Sea field is considered as an object of research. A brief description of the features of the construction area is given. A strength calculation was performed, on the basis of which the design parameters of the pipeline were adopted. A comparative analysis of the ways of laying the pipeline was carried out, which made it possible to identify the most satisfying conditions of reliability and economic efficiency.

The measures aimed at material and technical support are given, as a result of which high performance in housing construction can be achieved. The performance criterion of material and technical support during the construction and installation works is proposed in the form of a reduction in the duration of a project construction, which results in a reduction in the cost of work and resource savings. As an example, the procedure for calculating economic performance by the material and technical support factor during the construction of a large-panel two-section apartment building of variable number of storeys is shown. The calculation measures are based on reducing the necessary stocks of structures at the construction site, as well as reducing the costs associated with their acquisition and storage. It is shown that as a result of the proposed measures in the material and technical support of construction, based only on the main structural components, it is possible to obtain a noticeable economic effect due to a reduction in the dura-tion of construction and in additional costs in the conditions of the construction site.
