Abstract
The relevance of this study stems from the increasing prevalence of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the military and commercial sectors, which increases the risk of collisions with buildings and the infrastructure. This creates a need to improve architectural solutions in terms of safety and the integration of UAVs into the urban environment.
Purpose: The analysis of the potential use of double and transformable facades as an architectural means of protecting the building interior from the UAV impact. The analysis and systematization of architectural methods of using protective facades based on practical experience.
Methodology/approach: Generalization of the theoretical basis of modern scientific works and practical experience, the synthesis of new architectural techniques, the formulation and modeling of fundamental ways to improve the appearance of protective facades.
Research findings: Opportunities are identified for improving the appearance of protective facades while maintaining their primary function. Methods and tools are developed to improve the facade appearance and addition of functionality while maintaining its protective properties.
