In the context of rapid urban densification, there is a growing need to reassess the regulatory standards of urban planning. This study aims to identify the gap between current regulatory standards and actual living conditions, using residential complexes in Astana as a case study. The research encompasses a comprehensive analysis that incorporates architectural and urban planning calculations and the collection of statistical and sociological data. A significant excess in population density over the current standards is revealed, leading to overloading of social, engineering, and transport infrastructure, deterioration of the environmental situation, and a decline in urban living quality. To enhance the accuracy of calculations and the quality of design solutions, the study proposes adjusting the regulatory parameters and introducing a correction factor that accounts for the actual distribution of the population by housing types and comfort classes. The findings justify the need to revise existing regulatory standards to ensure sustainable urban development and enhance the effectiveness of urban planning policy.
