Abstract. The study of hardening high-strength systems indicates the relation between the potential of synergetics and issues related to structure formation of aggregates produced on the basis of rationally selected construction mixes. The paper considers challenges of the general principles of synergetics and sustainable development of open dissipative systems and their use in industry, as well as their understanding as complete self-regulating nonequilibrium systems. The main objective of the study was to demonstrate that the principles of self-regulating systems development can be applied in construction technology.

The article introduces basic principles of a new transdisciplinary research area geonics (geomimetics) in the construction material science. This research area differs from bionics, which uses knowledge about nature to solve engineering problems. The purpose of geonics (geomimetics) is to solve engineering problems with the account of knowledge about geologic and cosmochemical processes.
