Over the past few years, many new educational programs have been opened in construction universities in Russia. "Construction of unique buildings and structures" is one of such promising specialties.
Why is the program unique and why are graduates in such high demand?
There is a construction boom all over the world. Due to the lack of territory, buildings in cities rushed up or went deep underground, and airfields began to be built right in the middle of the ocean on artificially created islands. New construction formats have appeared - eco-structures, giant hanging motes, underwater objects. The design and construction of such structures is fundamentally different from civil and other types of construction and requires completely different personnel - specialists in unique buildings and structures.
What objects are called unique?
Initially, buildings above 75 m were considered unique, unsupported objects with a width of at least 69 m. However, now few people will be surprised by a sixteen-story building. Today, unique means unique, an object that has never been built before. Even very small buildings can be unique. For example, a house equipped with new super equipment. Or a building that is being built in a climatically dangerous zone with frequent earthquakes. Bridges, the construction of which used new structures, highways created from the latest materials, can be unique. In other words, objects for the design and construction of which no technical and regulatory requirements have yet been written.
To date, the specialty "Construction of unique buildings and structures" is being implemented by 115 higher educational institutions. When choosing a university, give preference to specialized, and even better - non-profit architectural and construction educational institutions. There are a little over thirty of them. In state universities there is an opportunity to enroll in state-funded places. For example, in the oldest architectural university in Russia - St. Petersburg University of Architecture and Civil Engineering - in 2015, 40 budget places were allocated for the program "Construction of unique buildings and structures".

Where are graduates of the program in demand?
Graduates - civil engineers of the specialty "Construction of unique buildings and structures" are in demand in construction companies that are engaged in the construction of houses, commercial and industrial areas, bridges, highways and airfields, underground structures. At the same time, construction objects can be both standard and unique. Also, young specialists are needed at enterprises involved in the development and manufacture of building materials and structures. They can also get a job in research institutes and engage in research in the field of the theory of unique buildings and structures. You can choose the profession of a survey engineer and study the natural conditions of the future development area.
There is always a demand for qualified construction personnel. In our region (St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region) there is a shortage of designers, moreover, in narrow specializations, including in the direction of training "Construction of unique buildings and structures." Therefore, many students find work already in their 3rd or 4th year. In addition, there is a shortage of specialists in the road industry, namely bridge builders, road builders, mechanics. It can be said with confidence that SPbGASU graduates have had no problems finding employment over the past many years. - Irina Lugovskaya, Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering |
ENROLLEE! When applying for the specialty "Construction of Unique Buildings and Structures", you must provide the results of the Unified State Examination in Russian, mathematics (core subject), chemistry or physics (subject of the choice of the university).
Construction has long been one of the most conservative industries, but now new materials are being used in standard and individual construction, providing increased comfort, environmental friendliness and operating efficiency (for example, reducing energy consumption, etc.) The use of new materials allows us to offer new architectural solutions, which previously, when using traditional materials, were not available. At the same time, some traditional materials, such as wood and glass, also acquire a “second life”.
In standard construction comes computer modelling and automation of the processes of design, construction and operation of buildings. New buildings are created taking into account the requirements of energy efficiency and smart environment technologies.
In the Construction industry, by 2020, the following areas will be determined as the most promising: digital design and production preparation; designing materials with desired properties; construction kits (houses, household buildings, etc.) for the mass consumer - "lego / ikea houses"; 3D printing in construction

ENROLLEE! When applying for the specialty "Construction of unique buildings and structures", you must provide the results of the Unified State Examination in Russian, mathematics (core subject), chemistry or physics (subject of the choice of the university).
Construction has long been one of the most conservative industries, but now in typical and individual construction new materials are being used that provide increased comfort, environmental friendliness and cost-effectiveness of operation (for example, reduced energy consumption, etc.). The use of new materials allows us to offer new architectural solutions that were previously not available using traditional materials. At the same time, some traditional materials, such as wood and glass, also acquire a “second life”.
Computer modeling and automation of the processes of design, construction and operation of buildings come to standard construction. New buildings are created taking into account the requirements of energy efficiency and smart environment technologies.
In the Construction industry, by 2020, the following areas will be determined as the most promising: digital design and production preparation; designing materials with desired properties; construction kits (houses, household buildings, etc.) for the mass consumer - "lego / ikea-houses"; 3D printing in construction
Engineering surveys, design, construction, operation, evaluation and reconstruction of buildings and structures can be carried out by graduates of the direction "Construction". In addition, they provide engineering support and determine what equipment will be needed for construction sites and urban areas. They can also determine which technologies, machines and equipment should be applied for the production of building materials, products and structures for a particular project.
Graduates-builders will deal with industrial and civil buildings, hydraulic and environmental structures. They will be well versed in building materials, products and structures, understand and design the operation of the system of heat and gas supply, ventilation, water supply and sanitation of various objects.
Industrial and civil construction solves the problems of erecting industrial and civil buildings and structures. A graduate of this area of study will manage general construction works, installation of building structures, control the quality of building materials, products and structures. Can examine the condition of buildings and structures, calculate and design load-bearing and enclosing structures. In addition, a civil engineer develops projects for the organization of construction and production of works, and also carries out architectural supervision of the construction of buildings and structures, draws up estimates and documentation for standardization.
and others - almost all technical universities have "Construction departments", many large federal and research universities have such faculties. The profession is massive and in great demand.
Graduates of this direction will be competent in the field of the theory of unique buildings and structures. They will be able to perform professionally engineering survey design, construction, operation, and technical re-equipment unique buildings and structures, namely industrial and civil buildings and structures for special purposes; high-rise and large-span buildings and structures; underground structures; hydrotechnical hydropower facilities; thermal and nuclear power facilities; specialized road transport facilities (for example, multi-storey car parks); highways and interchanges, airfields and special facilities; special purpose objects.
Builders work in construction and installation departments, in the construction departments of large companies, domestic and foreign, on the construction of specific facilities (for example, the Olympic facilities in Sochi, the Moscow City complex in Moscow), as well as in private construction teams on the construction of urban and industrial construction and on restored objects.
Graduates of this direction can create an engineering project and / or build roads, airfields, bridges and transport tunnels (for example, for the metro), and in addition, maintain, repair, reconstruct and restore these transport facilities. They can define technologies and oversee the production of custom road building materials for complex projects such as tunnels or bridges. Builders - road builders can build bridge and tunnel structures and participate in the construction of bridges. Roads and transport facilities are strategically important, so this profession is often taught in military universities.
The profession is rare and in high demand. Specialists who are assigned to the construction and installation department, a design bureau or a private construction company are invited to specific construction projects, such as a cascade of bridges in Vladivostok, new metro lines in St. Petersburg, Moscow and other cities, the construction of tunnels for vehicles under the river bed (in St. Petersburg - under the Neva, in Khabarovsk - under the Amur) or tunnels for railway transport, for example, the Severo-Muisky tunnel with a length of 15.3 km. on the Buryat section of the Baikal-Amur Mainline.

Being a builder means always being able to earn a living. Just what to choose? Be an architect? Handyman? Installer? In this case, we will talk about a rather specific direction, namely, the specialty "construction of unique buildings and structures."
To begin with, let's figure out what future professionals study. Their field of activity is engineering surveys, design, construction, operation and technical re-equipment of unique structures and buildings. In addition, they are engaged in the provision and selection of equipment for them, as well as scientific research in this area. Professional activity involves working with industrial and civil structures and buildings. Underground facilities, hydropower hydraulic structures, high-rise and large-span, highways, airfields, special-purpose buildings - this is not a complete list.
But where to work? The construction of unique buildings and structures requires high-quality training.
Civil engineers in this area specialize in collecting pre-project information. They are studying a future development area or a unique structure that needs reconstruction. With the use of graphic and applied calculation software, it is possible to create unparalleled buildings (or parts thereof). Everything for the reliable construction of unique buildings and structures.
Who to work? There are a lot of answers to this question. It is not necessary to collect pre-project information. You can control the compliance of the future building with the terms of reference, rules and safety standards. Also, specialists can carry out architectural supervision of the construction of the facility. This is if we are talking about large companies. In small structures, very often all the variety of these functions is assigned to one person. By the way, know that if you are interested in who to work with, the construction of unique buildings and structures makes it possible to realize oneself not only in civilian life, but also in military service.
The better and more stable the economy feels, the more often unique, unique buildings and structures are created. Now graduates of this specialty are in great demand in the construction of high-rise buildings. An example is Moscow City. Designing new metro lines, stations, solving problems with transport collapse in cities - there is a wide choice of where and by whom to work.
The construction of unique buildings and structures is also very well paid. So, wage ordinary specialists starts from the amount of 35 thousand rubles. Agree that for smart novice engineers - this is very good. In this case, you can get to work, for example, among ordinary designers. Although the final choice remains directly with the person himself, because it is he who decides who to work with.
The construction of unique buildings and structures provides ample opportunities, and those who choose this area of employment will not be disappointed.
