Architectural and Ecological Problems in the Formation of Mid-Rise Residential Buildings under the Climatic Conditions of Uzbekistan

This article analyzes the main architectural and ecological problems encountered in the formation of mid-rise residential buildings under the climatic conditions of Uzbekistan. The study highlights the significant impact of the country’s sharply continental climate, including extremely hot summers, cold winters, strong winds, and dust factors, on the functional and energy efficiency of modern residential buildings. During the research, national architectural traditions, the experience of historical neighborhoods, and modern urbanization processes were comparatively studied. In addition, issues related to energy efficiency, natural ventilation, ecological sustainability, and the use of local building materials were comprehensively examined. As a result of the study, conceptual solutions were developed for shaping modern mid-rise residential buildings adapted to the climate of Uzbekistan while preserving national traditions. The article has theoretical and practical significance for scientific research in the fields of architecture, urban planning, and ecological design.
