The institute deals with different geotechnical problems of objects which are under construction, reconstruction or have accidental state. During the design of high objects the calculations of three-dimensional systems “base-foundation-superstructure” are performed, influence of hydrogeological conditions is analyzed, projects of pits stability, engineering protection of adjacent territory and etc. are developed.
Considering the geotechnical problems the technical state of buildings and facilities of high responsibility level, especially during the reconstruction of such objects as NSC “Olimpiyskiy”, St. Andrew`s Church and others is assessed.
The research, project and construction works on elimination of accidental state are performed and tilts of some buildings and chimneys in Zaporizhzhya and other cities of Ukraine are aligned by the method of horizontal soil drilling.
Scientific and technical works on geotechnical include the following themes:

  • buildings and facilities construction in difficult geological conditions and engineering protection of territories;
  • strengthening of bases and foundations and correction of buildings and facilities tilts which are above permitted standards;
  • monitoring of buildings and facilities structures and bases stress-strain state.

Research works on geotechnical problems are developed in the following directions:

  • soil mechanics, underground structures and foundations structures and bases;
  • improvement of system and development of normative documents taking into account the difficult geological conditions, harmonization of new norms with European norms;
  • development of new methods and software to calculate the construction objects as complex structures “base-foundation-superstructure”;
  • development of methods to protect the buildings and facilities against dangerous geological processes;
  • research of hydrogeological state of territories, improvement of methods to protect the territories, buildings and facilities with developed underground part;
  • development of constructive solutions on pits supports for underground parts of structures in restrained urban conditions.



Works on geotechnology are performed by:

  • Zaporizhzhya department of State enterprise “State research institute of building constructions”
  • Department on buildings and facilities technical state research at dangerous geological processes
  • Department of bases and foundations and facilities, buildings and territories protection against deformations in difficult geological conditions
