Built in 1889, it has become both a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the world. In order to enhance the impression of height, three separate colors of paint are used on the tower, with the darkest at the bottom and the lightest at the top. With a total height of 324 metres, the third level is at 279 metres and it is an observatory and the highest accessible public place in the European Union. The avant-garde floor standing Amberes washbasin together with the Loft sensor faucet from Roca are the perfect match to this world-class structure. 04 1 1 AMBERES is a freestanding washbasin designed with stylish outline.

    R. JEVTIĆ RESIDENTIAL BUILDING EVACUATION-SIMULATION OF POTENTIAL Residential Building Evacuation-Simulation of Potential Evacuation Scenarios With Presence of Immobile Persons RADOJE B. JEVTIĆ, Electrotechnical school „Nikola Tesla“, Niš Professional paper UDC: 614.8.084 DOI: 10.5937/tehnika2006814J The increase in urban population leads to the lack of housing in cities. One of potential solutions for this problem is to build tall residential buildings. The height of this objects, in recent times, ranges from several tens of meters even to several hundreds of meters, while the number of residents ranges from several hundred even to several thousands. Although these objects have built related to modern standards and technologies, with usage of modern materials and machines, problems can happen. One of particularly complex and hard problem presents the evacuation of residents in case of some disaster. Problem is much more severe and complicated if there are people with disabilities or people with special needs in the building. The potential solution for this problem can be the usage of simulation software. This paper was written to show the usage of simulation software Pathfinder in calculation of evacuation times for different evacuation scenarios, without the presence of immobile occupants, with presence of immobile occupants in the percentage of 5 % from complete occupant’s number and with presence of immobile occupants in the percentage of 10 % from complete occupant’s number. Key words: evacuation, residential, immobile, scenario 1. INTRODUCTION The advancement of science, the usage of many new technics and materials has led to the advancement High residential buildings present the past, the in architecture, unthinkable before.

Some of the same family members have been key in maintaining al-Assad’s grip on power.

Information about the regime’s assets and finances is notoriously scarce due to the terror fostered by al-Assad’s apparatus at home and abroad. Our investigation further shows that the loans secured against some of the properties could be for the purposes of laundering money from Syria into Moscow.

  • It Is Amusing That at This Point Problems of a Different Nature Arose
    Subscribe to DeepL Pro to edit this document. Visit www.DeepL.com/Pro for more information. Kommersant learned that a top manager and a lawyer of a large financial pyramid scheme operating under the guise of an investment company QBF were arrested in Moscow. The alleged swindlers were transferring the money they received to offshore companies by providing fraudulent reports to the clients that their investments were made into serious financial portfolios. According to preliminary calculations of the investigation, the theft of about 5-7 billion rubles may be involved. Law enforcers think that part of this money could have been legalized by QBF management through real estate development projects, for example the construction of Gribovsky Les housing estate in Odintsovsky District of Moscow Region. Moscow's Tverskoy District Court remanded in custody 30-year-old co-founder of QBF LLC, former head of the company's Cyprus branch Zelimkhan Munayev and 47-year-old lawyer of this structure Yevgeniya Rossiyeva. Both are the defendants in a criminal case opened in April 2021 by investigative department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on especially big swindle (part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of Russian Federation). According to Kommersant, law enforcers have been investigating unlawful activities of QBF representatives for over a year. Last week, as part of the investigation, officers of Main Directorate for Ecology and Crime Control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs together with their colleagues from Department of Internal Affairs for ZAO, Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of Russia for Moscow and Moscow Department of Federal Security Service, supported by special forces, conducted more than 30 searches in Moscow and St.

One of the most important reasons driven the achievement is the continuously evolvement of structural systems. In this paper, previous classifications of structural systems are summarized and different types of structural systems are introduced. Besides the structural systems, innovations in other aspects of today's design of high-rise buildings including damping systems, construction techniques, elevator systems as well as sustainability are presented and discussed.

  • Regional Approaches in High-Rise Construction
    E3S Web of Conferences 33, 01023 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20183301023 HRC 2017 Regional approaches in high-rise construction O.G. Iconopisceva1, G.A. Proskurin1 Orenburg State University, 460018, Orenburg, prospect Pobedy, 13, Russia Abstracts. The evolutionary process of high-rise construction is in the article focus. The aim of the study was to create a retrospective matrix reflecting the tasks of the study such as: structuring the most iconic high-rise objects within historic boundaries. The study is based on contemporary experience of high-rise construction in different countries. The main directions and regional specifics in the field of high-rise construction as well as factors influencing the further evolution process are analyzed. The main changes in architectural stylistics, form-building, constructive solutions that focus on the principles of energy efficiency and bio positivity of "sustainable buildings", as well as the search for a new typology are noted. The most universal constructive methods and solutions that turned out to be particularly popular are generalized. The new typology of high-rises and individual approach to urban context are noted. The results of the study as a graphical scheme made it possible to represent the whole high-rise evolution. The new spatial forms of high-rises lead them to new role within the urban environments. Futuristic hyperscalable concepts take the autonomous urban space functions itself and demonstrate us how high-rises can replace multifunctional urban fabric, developing it inside their shells. 1 Introduction It's impossible nowadays to imagine the world without high-rises, which is the mainstream in the forming of high dense urban landscapes.
