PECULIARITIES AND PROSPECTS OF EFFECTIVE FUNCTIONING OF PROTECTIVE STRUCTURES OF CIVIL PROTECTION IN CONDITIONS OF HOSTILITIES

Abstract

The shortcomings of the existing approach to the formation of the protective properties of protective structures of civil defense and the criteria that determine the protective properties of protective structures of civil defense are shown. Statistical data on the functioning of civil defense protective structures in Ukraine are analyzed and the state of protection of the population per one thousand people is shown. Statistical data on damage to buildings and structures on the territory of Ukraine as a result of hostilities and data characterizing the level of such damages, as well as data on social losses of the population who were in buildings and structures that were damaged during hostilities, are presented. The behavior of the enclosing building structures of protective structures and shelters under the influence of explosions and mechanical impulse actions of combat weapons caused by air and artillery fire was analyzed. The dependence of the average values of social losses of the population on the number of direct projectile hits in buildings and structures is given. An analysis of the criteria standardized in Ukraine, which determine the protective properties of protective structures of civil defense, was carried out. An improved list of such criteria and a methodology for their determination depending on the structural parameters of civil defense protective structures are proposed. The results of the work will become a prerequisite for further research in terms of substantiating the structural parameters of the security premises of residential and public buildings under martial law conditions and will be used by project organizations and supervisory bodies during the design and evaluation of the effectiveness of the functioning of civil defense protective structures. Urgent tasks for further scientific research in the direction of increasing the protection of the civilian population from damage during hostilities by approving the proposed criteria and methods have been identified
