Abstract 

The new construction site was located in the Pechersk District of Kyiv within the existing dense development. The influence zone of the new construction included the construction site buildings and structures (the pit fencing (internal and external) and shelf) and buildings surrounding the new development (four residential five-story buildings and one two-story non-residential building, three of which were on the Klovskyi Slope and two at its foot). The deformations monitoring in the surrounding development buildings was carried out. The settlements of four residential five-story buildings foundations and cracks opening were its key parameters. Monitoring was carried out during about five years. Analyzing the width of cracks opening over time allowed to track the initial stage of activation and final stage of stabilization. Comparing the results of monitoring the cracks opening and buildings uneven settlements development allowed to clearly trace a direct relationship. The settlements activation correlated with cracks opening activation, but there was a certain delay in time. The appearance of cracks, as a rule, was occurring after the uneven settlements appearance, which was accompanied by the tension increase in the civil structures of the building foundations and its ultimate decrease while the cracks formation process developed.
