Description
Summary:Introduction. For a long time the Russian economy has had a unique nature. This is primarily due to the fact that the country has a fuel and raw materials oriented economy; therefore, the welfare of the country depends, as a rule, on such economic activities as the mining industry, in particular, oil and gas industry and metallurgy. The present-day international economy is focused on the service sector, where tourism plays a significant role. Nowadays, tourism is a powerful international industry. It has been recognized as an economic phenomenon of the century for its rapid growth rate. In many countries, tourism plays a significant role in GDP and its generation; it creates new jobs and generates employment opportunities. Materials and methods. The problem of the underdeveloped tourist infrastructure, including hotel facilities that should offer a wide range of relevant services, including health improvement in the Russian Federation, is exemplified by Kabardino-Balkaria. Kabardino-Balkaria has every important feature characteristic of modern tourism: good climatic conditions, numerous landmarks and items of cultural property. However, one may face a number of construction problems in this territory due to its terrain. The application of modular structures and buildings in the design of a hotel facility in high mountain areas is proposed. Results. The analysis of the area has been carried out; a huge amount of factual material has been studied; conclusions have been made on the basis of the advantage of using modular structures in this area. Conclusions. The universality of a modular system enables modules to be combined in any direction, creating a complete structure transportable at any distance.
