The aim of the article is to analyze the influence of the construction technology of rapidly assembled buildings (SMB) on the inert components of the landscape in the territory of Ukraine.

The main material. The authors consider the possible solution to the problems of rapid reconstruction of destroyed industrial and warehouse buildings in post-war Ukraine using the construction technology of prefabricated buildings (PFB). The article analyses design features and best practices of modern metal frame construction (PFB) as well as the influence of such construction on the inert components of the landscape. The authors have proved minimum influence of the construction of metal frame buildings (PFB) with maximum factory readiness on the inert components of the landscape.

With the beginning of the armed aggression, more and more attention is paid to the formation of belligerent landscapes. However, we see the relevance of our article in the study of prospects for post-war reconstruction of destroyed territories, in particular, based on the use of the latest, more efficient construction technologies. It is obvious that the main volume of construction will be carried out with the funds of foreign institutions or investors, Thus, preference will be given to the construction technologies or materials with a minimal impact on the environment. We consider the separate aspects of our research novelty to be a greater detail of both the modern classification of anthropogenic landscapes (in particular, a more detailed study of industrial landscapes (or, as a more narrowed version, «urbolandscapes»), and an in-depth study of the impact of construction technologies on the inert components of the landscape

Why is this important? First of all, the lithogenic basis of any landscape largely determines the ways of its further economic development. Buildings and structures, as a rule, cover a large area, block natural processes, reduce the ecological stability of soils and landscapes, significantly reducing biodiversity in the built-up area.

The process of capital construction on the site completely destroys natural environment.

Deep pits and trenches are built during extensive excavations, the natural layered structure, the integrity of the soil and the geological environment, as well as the underground ecosystem are disturbed. Dense development of territories with buildings and structures blocks the migration of animals, microorganisms, moisture transfer, infiltration, evaporation, as well as the warming of the soil by sunlight. Such aggressive intervention in the natural geological environment leads to its ecological degradation.

Conclusions. In the conditions of the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine, the attention of geoscientists to the landscapes formed as a result of the construction industry should be strengthened due to the need for construction minerals and intensity of restoration construction works on destroyed objects. Most likely, the zoning of anthropogenic landscapes accepted today will lose its relevance during the restoration of man-made structures destroyed by military actions.
