The main features and goals of energy efficiency in residential construction are considered in order to ensure minimal heat loss of buildings, and thus reduce the use of the required amount of energy to compensate for heat losses. With the increasing energy crisis and the deterioration of the environmental situation in large cities, recently foreign countries have attached importance to the rational use of energy resources. Facades are one of the main elements that provide a solution to improve the energy efficiency of the building itself, as they reduce the heat loss coefficient to a significant level. Today, Germany is a world leader in energy efficiency, as the country uses the most modern energy saving technologies. The technology of using energy-efficient facades in Europe is already considered normal and at the moment the technology of using a ventilated facade, translucent facade system, "green facade", dynamic facade represent more progressive solutions to improve energy efficiency.
Keywords: energy efficiency, heat loss, enclosing structures, facade, foreign experience, hinged ventilated facades, translucent facade system, green facade, dynamic façade
In the article are considered the methodic of search of the best from the point of view of the criteria given of organizational technical decisions in the construction process. This methodic for decision of building production tasks has been worked out or is being worked out in different institutes of Russian Federation. In the paper some of possible methodic of choice on the ground of automation and mechanization means are analyzed. We should outline the three basic methods of accepting of decision about the way of performance of construction works: a) brainstorming of engineers, really involved in taking of decisions; b) analytic approach, realization of choice of the way of performance of construction and installation works by means of exploration of the problem of search of "optimal in the given conditions decision"; c) mathematic modeling, using of the technology of informational modeling of buildings (BIM) as a part of computer-aided design (CAD).

The main part of the technical documents in creation, reconstruction and capital repair of buildings and structures consists of technical executive documentation. Its formation, design, processing demand a lot of time and labor expenses. With the purpose of optimization of these processes and decreasing of work expenses it is necessary to appeal to automatic means of control and exploitation of executive documentation. In the article there are considered technical possibilities of the programs, allowing to simplify compilation of technical executive documentation at construction plant.
