Abstract

The article considers the issue of designing a safe environment in the context of military threats and emergencies. A review of the works of domestic and foreign scientists on the issue of ensuring the stability of window structures in case of a blast wave and emergencies, as well as an analysis of building codes and standards for the design of window structures of residential buildings is carried out. The necessity of assessing the security situation and taking it into account when choosing a design solution for window structures of residential buildings is substantiated. The factors influencing the assessment of the security situation are identified. An approach to formalizing and evaluating these factors based on the analysis of risks and areas of possible danger is proposed. A model for assessing the security situation in the design process when selecting window structures is proposed. The model takes into account three components: proximity to the combat zone and to the Ukrainian-Russian and Ukrainian-Belarusian borders; proximity to infrastructure and military facilities that are potential targets for missile and bomb attacks; number of potential targets in the vicinity of the building. The results of the study can be useful for architects, builders and designers in justifying safe construction solutions in the face of military threats.
