History

History Project institute №1 - the country's history

1949

In April 1949, the Ministry for the Construction of Machine-Engineering Enterprises began directing Project Development Institute No. 1. A great scope of hydro-technical work shipbuilding design projects was still in progress, and a new chapter was started, namely, the designing of machine-engineering enterprises. The Institute went on to design over 200 such enterprises.

A metalwork department specializing in complex work in metal was established at the Institute in December. The department was headed by A.P. Morozov, a qualified industry specialist, and he arranged Morozov’s weekly Tuesday meetings on both design and scientific issues.

Leningrad reinforced-concrete plant No. 5

One of the most important projects at Project Development Institute No. 1 in 1954–1955. Breakthroughs in the design field were to drive breakthroughs in the construction industry as well. The plant itself was built in Leningrad Region using new structures developed at the Institute for the production of new construction parts. The plant was erected using wide-panel pre-fabricated structures, many of which were used in construction for the first time, such as: combined stressed beams with a 15-meter span, lattice work with an 18-meter span, double-curved pre-fabricated stressed vault-envelopments measuring 31x18 m, and precast, pre-stressed reinforced-concrete galleries without intermediate supports. From the moment of its startup, reinforced-concrete plant No. 5 has been a unique manufacturer of new standard structures for construction.
