The objective of the article is: 1) to study the experience of foreign countries on the organization of insurance activities; 2) to determine the feasibility of introducing international practices into the national insurance system. For this purpose, the authors used the following methods of scientific cognition: dialectical, comparative analysis and bibliographic. The authors of the paper have analyzed the experience of foreign countries on the organization of insurance activities; have determined the feasibility of implementing legal norms and successful international practices and methods into national insurance system. The historical stages of the development of insurance management, as well as the current forms and methods of its implementation have been studied. It has been emphasized that the sphere of insurance activity is quite an important component in the system of public administration and country’s economy in general. That is the reason that we admit it extremely necessary to provide the national insurance area with the necessary conditions for its further development, in particular, it is offered to accomplish this through more flexible and high-quality legal regulation. Besides, the state policy on administration in the field of insurance should be aimed at: the formation of an insurance market with a highly developed infrastructure and a wide range of insurance services; adaptation of the Ukrainian insurance market to the world requirements of financial regulation and supervision; cooperation with European and international organizations; harmonization of national legislation in the field of insurance with international standards, etc.

The relevance of the issue raised in the article is due to the fact that one of the key aspects of reforming the judicial system in Ukraine, which must meet European standards, is to ensure public order during the court hearing. In this regard, the subject matter of the article is the world-tested methods and ways of ensuring public order during the court hearing. While writing the article the authors have used the following methods: formal and legal, analytical, system analysis, system and structural. The problems that currently exist and are in the way of effective development of the national judicial system of Ukraine have been analyzed. While analyzing the most problematic and relevant issues of ensuring public order in courts the authors have emphasized on the intensification of tendencies to strengthen the security of the subjects participating in the court hearing. At the same time, it has been stated that there is the spread of the policy of many states for increasing the level of democratization of the judicial process, in particular by granting wider rights and freedoms to all its participants. Based on the successful experience of foreign countries, the authors have suggested the ways to improve the judicial process in Ukraine in the whole and not just to ensure public order during the court hearing. Special attention has been paid to the Judicial Protection Service. It has been determined that the improvement of the national legislation of Ukraine on ensuring public order during the court hearing should take into account both national traditions of judicial proceedings and European standards. At the same time, the implementation of international standards in these areas should be systematic and comprehensive. In this regard, it is necessary to form a single concept in this area. The conclusions have offered three main interrelated stages of improvement of the legislation of Ukraine in terms of ensuring public order during the court hearing.

Recently, process of complicating buildings and structures, which is so-called "architectural trend", as well as market competition leads to the construction of insufficiently approved structure forms. The situation is aggravated by the "lagging behind" regulatory framework, unsatisfactory skills of the construction process participants, contravention of the constructed objects operation rules and other negative factors, on the one hand. On the other hand, a number of documents are of a recommendatory nature. Thus, current above-described situation determined the relevance of this publication. There were made the following in order to correctly predict the trouble-free operation of multi-element metal structures: - concepts, principles, qualitative and quantitative indicators of operational efficiency (survivability) and its categories related to nodes, structural elements and technical systems in general were formulated; - a large-scale effect both in the designing and in the operation of large-sized and multi-element metal structures was considered; - emergency metal structures destruction data were nalyzed; - reasons for characteristic defects and rod metal structures damage are considered, including the modeling of damage formation processes, the identification of random physical regularities of the sizes scattering and defects location.
