Tubing facilities in the system of recreational urban territories

Abstract

The study was conducted in the field of temporary monofunctional recreational tubing facilities. Using the example of artificial structures in Moscow, city-forming and technological features as promising centers of activity of urban parks in large cities were studied. The phenomenon of continuity of modern temporary recreational facilities to the traditions of the historic “Roller slides” as a part of park spaces and independent small architectural forms was studied. The life cycle of facilities (from design and installation to dismantling) was tracked. The structural scheme of tubing facilities on the basis of rod building structures and their engineering and technological support were studied. The statistics of attendance was analyzed, and the target audience of the complexes was identified. Energy efficiency, reliability, and environmental friendliness of facilities were proved. The paper proposes a proprietary methodology for assessing the adaptability of tubing facilities to the environment. It is presented as an object matrix.

Synthetic Snow Substitutes as the Basis for the Recreation and Sports Facilities Sustainable Operation

“…The design, construction and operation of winter sports centers located in various climatic and geographical areas requires a comprehensive approach, including technical, technological, compositional and environmental issues. In large cities, unstable weather and the natural conditions absence, modern building structures allow to create man-made mountains, and the modern materials allow to equip "working rolling" surfaces, simulate an artificial environment and replace snow or ice with a modern alternative to natural resources [8].…”
