Abstract

By 2020, the majority of residential buildings, built in period from 1950 to 1970, will be more than 50 years old and their lifetime will be exhausted. Buildings demand modernization as well as the territory itself. The subject of building renovation of the considered period becomes more and more relevant in Russia. The housing, built in the considered period, has become outdated morally and physically. The development strategy of inhabited planning units renovation is necessary. In the article, the research of the building territory of 1958-1975 with the identification of planning schemes for the micro districts in Yekaterinburg, which aren't deformed by the pointed building, are described. Based on the comparison of modern standards with the standards of the period under review, the calculation of "the renovation potential" (the number of living space, which is possible and reasonable to integrate into the existing development) is given, in general, around the city and in particular, on the remained complete formations of micro-district scale. The assessment of micro-districts of the developed territories suitability for the transformation into modern quarters is given. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
