Technification of architectural and structural design (logical-historical analysis)
The article examines the logic of historical process of architectural and structural design technification. It states that by the end of the XX century formation of architectural and structural solutions took shape as a relatively separate design-engineering activity. Since the middle of the last century, when the French culturologist Antoine Mole pointed to the relationship of culture and technology and introduced the concept of "technological culture", technology research began to develop rapidly. In construction by the beginning of the XX century the formation of architectural and construction solutions took shape in a relatively independent design activity. Individualization of design activity, its separation from civil engineering subdivisions and its abstraction into independent organizations took place as the construction scale grew and the design objects got more complicated. A strong trend towards the allocation of design units of design and construction associations in independent organizations, especially clearly carried out in industrial construction, developed in the USSR by 1930. From then on the stage of its active technification starts which passes phases of standardization and systematization of objective and operational content of architectural and structural design. Its complete shape technification takes with the occurrence of feasibility of computer design operations, i.e. with introduction of computer hardware. Introduction of computers allowed primarily automation of routine graphical part of design and then proceed to information building modeling (IBM), transforming both the object and its handling into a digital model at all its lifetime stages - from conception to elimination.
