Construction of Multi-storey Buildings from Precast Reinforced Concrete

The description of the importance of the transition to the construction of precast reinforced concrete is given. Since 1957, the country has taken first place in the world in terms of the number of apartments under construction per 1,000 inhabitants. This sharp breakthrough in construction pulled other branches of the national economy along with it. Technological methods of monolithic construction can no longer significantly increase the pace of building construction. The advantage of a frame for buildings of socio-cultural purpose for the implementation of any architectural solutions. The main solutions of the RKD system (frame-braced frame with diaphragms). The issues of reducing labor costs and resources for the production of products and their installation are considered. Examples of practical application of the RKD system are given. It is noted that the equipment for the production of reinforced concrete products is mainly Russian-made.
