The use of modern computer technologies limits high practical and economic results in the construction of modern buildings and structures. This is due to the fact that modern software systems make it possible to predict with sufficient prospects the behavior of building structures under the influence of various factors, including under high-temperature conditions. In relation to the issue of heating steel building structures with fire protection and coatings intumescent under fire conditions, it should be noted that the process of heat and mass transfer in an intumescent coating is currently only partially studied. Objectives. The purpose of the study is the analysis of the application aspects of numerical modeling in the development of the project of fire protection steel constructions using modern software complexes and existing computational and analytical methods, and analyzing critical factors affecting the reliability of the results obtained. Methods. This study investigates the application aspects of numerical modeling in the development of a project for fire protection of steel building structures with intumescent coatings through analysis of existing experimental and theoretical research. Results and discussion. The results of the analysis of the existing experimental and theoretical studies in the field of the application of numerical modeling of heat transfer processes, including in the conditions of high-temperature exposure to fire, showed that the application of numerical modeling in the development of the project of fire protection steel building structures with intumescent coatings is associated with a complex and long process associated with validation Mathematical models of research objects are being developed. Conclusion. The current level of development of numerical modeling technology allows not only to supplement experimental studies, but also, if possible, to greatly reduce them.

The paper is devoted to the ethical and cultural facilitation of intellectual creative activities. The methodology basis of the research compiles the differentiated analy- sis of Russian moral culture and axiological analysis of its educational potential. The authors describe the specifics of the system of aristocratic moral qualities and refinement; their main characteristics being observed. The novelty of the approach involves the understanding of the aristocratic moral values as a necessary condition for the productive intellectual and creative activity. The authors investigate the historic origin of the aristocratic moral values, and define the functions and specifics of the Russian type of aristocratic culture; the objective and subjective conditions of its for- mation are highlighted, as well as the integrity of the refinement inherent in people en- gaged in intellectual and creative activities. The authors believe that revival of the refinement, as one of the aspects of the Russian moral culture, depends on both the development of our own nation and the the world society as a whole. Nowadays, when the postindustrial society is giving way to the informational one, the production of information takes the leading part in social life. The information and knowledge, being its unified products, provide new ways for evolving of the phenomenon of refinement. Its pedagogic potential should be imple- mented in the process of education and upbringing.
