The topic is increasingly important due to the growing number of cross-border infrastructure projects and the rising demands of international financial institutions. The analysis highlights recent changes in the Russian regulatory framework, including the repeal of several mandatory requirements under the “regulatory guillotine” policy and the establishment of a new register of construction norms, both of which have significantly affected legal enforcement. Special attention is given to terminological discrepancies, such as the translation of the term “Common Data Environment”, and to challenges arising from implementation of international standards across different jurisdictions. The study shows that the United States and China demonstrate substantial flexibility in adapting these standards, while in the European Union, supranational regulation plays a central role. The novelty of the research lies in identifying obstacles and opportunities for harmonizing international and domestic construction standards, aiming to reduce legal conflicts and enhance the competitiveness of Russian companies. The conclusions include recommendations for clearly distinguishing mandatory from recommended construction norms, standardizing legal terminology, and amending legislation to restore the personal liability of technical clients in the Russian Federation.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Aннотация. Исследование посвящено интеграции стандартов Международной федерации инженеров-консультантов и Международной организации по стандартизации в правовые системы США, Китая, России, Индии и Европейского союза, с учетом роста трансграничных инфраструктурных проектов и требований международных финансовых институтов. Анализируются изменения нормативно-правовой базы России, включая отмену ряда обязательных требований в рамках политики «регуляторной гильотины» и последующее создание нового реестра строительных норм, что существенно повлияло на правоприменение. Особое внимание уделяется терминологическим коллизиям (например, переводу Common Data Environment) и специфике внедрения международных стандартов в различных юрисдикциях. Показано, что США и Китай демонстрируют гибкость при адаптации норм, тогда как в ЕС ключевую роль играет наднациональное регулирование. Новизна исследования заключается в выявлении препятствий и возможностей для гармонизации международных и национальных строительных норм, позволяющей снизить правовые конфликты и повысить конкурентоспособность российских компаний. В качестве выводов предложены рекомендации по четкому разграничению обязательных и рекомендательных строительных норм, обеспечению единообразия правовой терминологии и корректировке законодательства, восстанавливающей персональную ответственность технических заказчиков в РФ.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>international construction contract law</kwd><kwd>adjudication</kwd><kwd>common data environment</kwd><kwd>international federation of consulting engineers</kwd><kwd>international standards</kwd><kwd>interaction between international and domestic law</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>международное строительное контрактное право</kwd><kwd>адъюдикация</kwd><kwd>среда общих данных</kwd><kwd>международная федерация инженеров-консультантов</kwd><kwd>международные стандарты</kwd><kwd>взаимодействие международного и внутригосударственного права</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta><fn-group/></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Anosov, Y.A.
