ABSTRACT

The problem of long-term construction exists in many countries. There are numerous examples of multi-stage construction over several centuries. Very often, ongoing construction does not go according to the original project. But there are also examples of preserving the original idea. Such examples are most typical when restoring destroyed buildings. However, in some cases, the construction of a building has not been completed. One of these is the mausoleum-khanaka of Akhmed Yassawi in Turkestan city. The active phase of the construction of this building ended at the beginning of the 15th century. Partial completion was made at the end of the 16th century. Since then, the building has been in an unfinished state. This stimulates its gradual destruction, despite the complex of repair and restoration works. This problem requires an urgent solution, as the building is in a state of disrepair. In this context, the proposed project of completing the construction of the mausoleum-khanaka in accordance with the original design plan is of interest. The use of lightweight structures based on a steel frame, which is based on independent reinforced concrete foundations, reduces the load on the existing part of the building. This building has great historical and cultural significance. The completion of this building will eliminate the existing danger of its destruction and will have a significant social and economic effect.
