Dusan Biocanin MSc in Civil Engineering

Business & Administration Complex "Mozayka"

Assignments:Formwork & reinforcement drawings

"Mozayka" is an interesting complex with four newly constructed buildings surrounding the existing one. It is the first project I have worked on and my main responsibilities were formwork and reinforcement detailing.

Mozhayka

Location: 8 Mozhaysky val St, Moscow
Number of levels:4+15
Total area:78 500 m2
Construction design: "MB-Project Bureau"
Design stage: "Design Drawings"
Architectural design: "SPeeCH"
Investor: "CNIIKA"

Complexities of buildings’ structure presented numerous drafting challenges. By the end of the project I gained confidence in dealing with formwork and reinforcement of almost all types of structural elements.

I was also visiting the site to gain insight in technology used for building the underground and to observe construction of elements in design of which I participated. Seeing the everyday struggle with formwork installation, reinforcement placement and problems associated with casting of complicated elements will shape my thinking and future design decisions.
