Construction of Olympic facilities in Sochi or "Life After the Olympics Is"

The development of sport in Russia today is one of the priorities of the country's leadership. To solve it, the federal target program "Development of Physical Culture and Sports in the Russian Federation for 2006 - 2015" was developed. Today, throughout the country, leaps and bounds are modernizing and building sports facilities. A good stimulus to this was the future Olympics in 2014 in Sochi. This event is a significant event not only for the country as a whole, but also in particular for the construction industry. Specialists of the Roskomstroy Group of Companies Real Estate, one of the leaders in the construction market, showed immediate interest in the Olympics: "Such an important event for the life of the country provides an excellent chance to put into practice the most reliable, modern building materials and technologies. For GC Roskomstroy Real Estate, as for other construction organizations, this is an excellent opportunity to gain professional experience and use it in future projects. "

The scale of construction is staggering, which is not surprising, since it is planned to erect up to 30 objects directly related to the sporting events, of which 14 are for sport purposes. Alexey Lotkov, head of the construction department of Roskomstroy Real Estate: "Builders, like ordinary citizens, have a question: what will happen next? For the city, such a number of new sports facilities will become redundant. The further destiny of "unnecessary" designs - simple or перепрофилирование, for example, in a shopping and entertainment center. The population of Sochi is about 400 000 people, and the capacity of the sports grounds is planned at 129 000 places, here the question arises as to the appropriateness of such scales. "

However, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said that after the games four Olympic venues will be transferred to other cities of our country for use in major sporting events. A small ice arena for hockey will be moved to Vladikavkaz, an ice arena for curling in Rostov-on-Don, a training arena for hockey will be given to Astrakhan, and a training center for figure skating will receive Stavropol. The cities are not chosen by chance: the deputy head of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation Yuri Reylyan notes that the regions were very actively involved in the struggle for Sochi's facilities, the number of applicants was much higher than the number of arenas, so the selection of new owners was very serious and painstaking. As a result, all four objects went to southerners.

"Overcrowding" Sochi sports stadiums and palaces is not the only reason for the transfer of buildings. Construction of Olympic facilities is conducted in the Imereti lowland, where the swamp has been recently. Initially, the projects assumed construction on piling foundations, but the factor of the earth's fluctuations made adjustments to the plans of the builders. In this regard, designers have relied on lighter frame structures, rather than monolithic ones. Over time, on such an unstable soil, the latter would begin to sink, and in the event of an earthquake, the finale would be completely sad.

Head of the Department of Development of the Civil Code Roskomstroy Real Estate Zubkin A.Yu. Commented: "In many regions of Russia, the sports infrastructure is developing slowly, or even in a poor state. The use of collapsible technologies will solve the problem of using sports facilities after the Olympic Games: the objects dispersed throughout the country will be stably loaded. So we can avoid the unfortunate experience of Greece, when after the Olympics in Athens, a huge number of constructed sports grounds remained unclaimed. An important factor is the geographical location of cities - "lucky": they are all close to the venue of the games. Undoubtedly, such a gift will be a good incentive for the development of winter sports in cities. Since the construction is already underway with the plan for the future transfer, the costs of relocating the facilities should be minimal, and they will pay off fairly quickly due to the operation of the facilities. "
