Abstract: One of the most frequent and destructive natural disasters around the world is flooding, causing significant damage and loss of life, exacerbating environmental problems. This article analyzes the causes of floods and their consequences. The issues of design and construction of buildings located in flooded and flooded areas, taking into account world practice, as well as the effectiveness of the use of existing technologies and means of protecting buildings from floods, which are becoming increasingly important, are considered. It is noted that the use of so-called traditional methods of protecting buildings from floods, such as, for example, dams, is necessary taking into account additional measures, including, for example, the development of new or updating existing building codes, zoning of the territory, etc., which are aimed at reducing the potential impact of floods on buildings, as well as to reduce the risk of economic and environmental losses and loss of life.
Keywords: flooded areas, natural disasters, methods of building protection.
