Influence of planning decisions on the local climate of residential building of the Krasnodar region and the Primorsk region

Introduction: the article presents the examples of architectural and planning solutions on optimization of courtyard spaces in the southern regions of the Russian Federation, their protection from strong wind, insufficient airing, overheating and solar radiation, as well as anthropogenic and natural ones. In modern Russian construction, insufficient attention is paid to natural and climatic effects. Typical residential housing is used in all regions of the country. The main reason is the lack of regulatory documents for each region, which has its characteristics (presence of water bodies, terrain features, a wind rose, etc.). This problem dictates the need to structure the vital natural and climatic factors which affect the yard territory microclimate. Based on this, compensatory effective improvement methods and solutions that can balance the adverse effect of natural and climatic conditions and create the parameters and norms of architectural and urban planning design are presented. Materials and methods: the article analyzed the following information: standards, guidelines, design and regulatory documents in the field of construction and design, published data, and materials of domestic and foreign scientific research on this subject. Methods of scientific research are based on the use of factor and comparative analyses and the theory of constraints. Results: the article as formed the architectural and planning proposals on the residential area climate-based development. Conclusions: a planning structure based on local natural and climatic consideration (terrain features, the wind rose, etc.) and application of effective methods of territory protection from excessive solar radiation and adverse winds can form a favorable microclimate of a residential building for human comfort habitation. Correct assessment of the climatic features allows making bioclimatic protection economically sound and efficient in terms of energy consumption as well as defining favorable architectural and planning solutions.
