ON MECHANISMS FOR CONTROLLING HAZARDOUS CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS AND BUILDINGS

Abstract

In big cities of post-Soviet countries, population growth is linked to“more opportunities” for employment and self-realization at first glance, which at the same time results in the growing demand on real estate. The demand is met by new constructions performed at minimum cost in the environment of market economy and minimum state control. However, this often leads to the utilization of low-quality construction materials that sometimes pose threat to the human life or health.
