Customization of foreign projects

Cooperation with the Russian Union of Engineers (RSI) allows Engineering Company “2K” to be an active participant in the international engineering community. RSI represents the Russian engineering community in the international market and actively cooperates with public organizations of other countries. Among its partners are the Institute of Civil Engineers (Great Britain), the Association of Engineers and Architects (USA), the European Association of Engineering Industry (22 European states), the European Federation of National Engineering Associations (32 European states).

Such a wide range of professional contacts, provided by RSI, allows the Company to track international engineering, construction, technological and technical innovations and introduce them in Russia. Customizing projects to the local market is a popular construction trend. Foreign companies offer original high-grade design solutions, which are in demand in the local industrial and housing construction market. However, it is not possible to fully streamline them with the domestic market conditions, since they are based on requirements that differ significantly from the building code adopted in our country. Therefore, it is necessary to adapt foreign projects to the latter, which should be entrusted to professionals. 

International cooperation, a wide range of foreign partners allows Engineering Company ”2K” ensure professional customization of foreign projects to the domestic market. Direct consultations with project developers give us additional opportunities for modifying foreign projects. Adaptation of foreign project assumes: translation of the text of the project and explanations to the drawings, analysis and evaluation of the proposed solutions, adjustment of technical documents to the current legislation, taking into account regional climatic conditions, development of additional sections of the design documents as per Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 87 on the Composition of design documentation sections and requirements to their contents dd. 16.02.2008 necessary for project approval by the State expert review panel. Implementation of unadapted projects developed by foreign construction contractors may incur difficulties and risks, since their customization requires extensive expertise, understanding of details and their careful study, as well as additional calculations and new technical solutions. When localizing projects and working out design solutions, it is necessary to consider a number of factors, including terrain features, soil conditions, groundwater depth, weather conditions, mean annual temperatures, snow and wind loads, construction of the utilities. 

Our experts are ready to bring the design documents and cost estimates in compliance with the applicable legislation, GOST and SNiP standards, norms and regulations. Our competitive advantages include efficiency and quality of the services offered, due to prior successful adaptation experience of foreign projects and the professionalism of the team.
