【 摘 要 】

The article studies the shapes of the dome roofs of church monuments of architecture. The presentation is primarily based on the relative comparisons methods. The authors compare the shapes of the dome roofs of church monuments of the Orthodox architecture that relate to different styles and epochs, and emphasize the inviolability of the established canonical church requirements. They analyze the shapes of the dome roofs of Orthodox churches in the Southern Urals. The present paper is aimed at giving recommendations for the restoration of historical churches with a weakened ability of bearing walls, taking into account the improvement of the operation of enclosing structures. The authors study the aerodynamic characteristics of the church dome roofs for determining the most difficult areas (high wind pressure) and taking subsequent correct constructive decisions. Solid works suite-based visualization is used in the study.
