INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE STUDY OF ARCHITECTURAL AND CONSTRUCTION TRADITIONS OF ENGINEERING ARCHITECTURE OF Khiva

Abstract

To identify the technical condition of the structures of the madrassah and minaret of Islam Khoja, located in Ichan-Kala, Khiva, an engineering survey of its supporting structures was carried out. The minaret is the highest in Khiva. This article addresses the issue of earthquake resistance of the Islam Hodge minaret. Rather, on the basis of the achievements of modern construction science, the structural solutions of the above object are subjected to engineering analysis. An attempt is made to extract, from the point of view of the seismic stability of the structure, something common from such complex situations of ancient times and building rules that have formed in the present.

Field monitoring studies of the architectural monuments of Khorezm showed that the ancient master architects were familiar with the very diverse destructive effects of earthquakes. Their original techniques and constructions, seismic protection will undoubtedly interest the widest circles of architects, civil engineers and restorers.
