Abstract
Problem statement. Ukraine has a large number of waterways and access to the sea. They are unlimited reserves of energy and resources that can be used for the benefit of people, but at the same time spring floods can be a danger, and therefore the construction of buildings on the water is a partial solution to this problem. The coastal zone is favorable in terms of climatic conditions for urban development. Increasing the number of comfortable and safe housing in large cities, increasing the efficiency of construction of waterways in Ukraine and coastal areas, meeting the demand of the recreation and leisure industry is the main task in the design and construction of energy efficient floating buildings. The purpose of the article. Search for the most rational architectural and design solutions and technologies for the construction of energy efficient buildings on the water. Consider the design features of the modules used for buildings of different configurations in the plan. Propose solutions for the development of projects for energy efficient buildings on the water in Ukraine. Conclusions. As a result of the research, recommendations were given on the use of various spatial planning and design solutions of floating buildings, the use of utilities and equipment. It is proposed to use energy efficient technologies for floating buildings: solar panels, diesel generators, wind generators. The list of the elements of various forms serving as modules for creation of collapsible rectangular and round in the plan of the buildings is resulted, and also the list of the materials used at their manufacture is resulted. The decision on arrangement of bases and the bases of a floating building for various climatic and hydrogeological conditions of areas of construction is resulted. Energy efficient houses on the water are an alternative to houses on land as environmentally viable buildings in large cities. The possibility of erecting buildings on the water in areas of Ukraine where floods and inundations are systematic is an alternative solution in the fight against the water element.
