Installation work in construction is the assembly of metal and reinforced concrete structures, pipelines, preparation of construction equipment for the main work. In a word, installation is the initial preparation of a construction object for work.
Construction and installation work is one of the most costly and time-consuming processes. They require careful preparation of materials, working area and highly qualified installers.
Installation work is of particular importance in the construction of high-rise buildings. The strength of such structures is determined, first of all, by the quality of reinforced concrete structures and compliance with the technology during their installation. Reinforced concrete structures are produced at specialized enterprises. They are parts made of concrete and reinforcing iron structures. This is a very durable material, the service life of which is calculated in decades.
Installation work begins with the preparation of the site for construction. It includes: delivery and assembly of construction equipment and machinery. Specialists install liftingcranes, compressor and pumping units, lay temporary technical pipelines, prepare electrical equipment. Installation is not just the assembly and adjustment of equipment, but also its maintenance throughout the entire time the construction is going on. After digging a foundation pit for the future building, piles are driven in, which serve as the basis for the foundation and determine the stability of the structure. Next, the builders proceed to the installation of reinforced concrete structures, which are the frame of the building and interfloor ceilings.
When carrying out this type of work, great attention is paid to safety. The installation of building structures is included in the list of hazardous work for both direct workers and unauthorized people who got to the construction site. There are many cases of high-rise cranes falling on residential buildings, the collapse of interfloor ceilings. All this happens due to violation of technological requirements. Yes, and in the course of work, parts may break and fall. One of the most important points is the fencing of the construction site, the inadmissibility of unauthorized persons entering the site, the place of work on assembling structures must also be fenced.
The cost of installation work is calculated on the basis of regulatory documents, which fix the all-Russian prices (EniP) and regional prices (EPER) for different types of installation work. They include works on installation of equipment, assembly of reinforced concrete structures andtheir maintenance. The cost calculation also includes the area of work performed, the volume, complexity of work, and climatic features. Be sure to take into account various errors that may arise in the course of work, a possible increase in costs.
Installation work is an important stage in the construction of multi-storey buildings, the quality of which in the future depends on the entire further operation of the structure.
