PRINCIPLES OF REVITALIZATION OF WORKED OUT QUARRIES, BASED ON EXAMPLE OF KRYVYJ RIH

Abstract

Problem statement. A quarry is classified as an architectural object that has its own structure. As each industrial facility has an expiration date, the question of its restoration and inclusion in the planning structure of the city increasingly arises. Quarries that are not used for their intended purpose pose a real threat to the dispersal of housing and public buildings in the city, complicating public relations. Although mining is necessary for the development of the country's economy, the development of deposits has a negative impact on the environment. Firstly − the change of natural relief, different in depth and other parameters, and secondly − not the same type of design solution during the revitalization of the worked quarry. The presence of analysis and principles of reorganization of space and functional purpose in the quarries can improve the affected areas of the city. Purpose − development of scientifically substantiated proposals and recommendations of the principles of revitalization of quarries as spent industrial facilities in the urban environment in accordance with the existing functional content of the city in order to create an ecologically balanced and comfortable human environment with a positive impact on the urban ecosystem. Conclusions. The study of the worked quarry not as a mining object for mining, but as an engineering complex industrial object, which in turn is able to meet the main groups of human processes, expands the criteria for analysis and improvement of the revitalization of the territory. Restoration of these facilities is aimed at improving the architectural, environmental and emotional state of the city. Using the necessary principles for a single point of integration (career), the urban area becomes more balanced in terms of functional content.
