The building of the Goethe German Cultural Center in Moscow was built in 1982 for the Embassy of the GDR in the USSR.
Now it is used as an educational center, although this was not taken into account in the design.
During the review of the project of repair and reconstruction of the building, the customer-developer from Germany encountered a discrepancy between the regulations in force in Germany and Russia. EF-TEK experts provided consulting assistance in this regard.
The scope of EF-TEK's services included:
- assessment of the building's compliance with the fire safety requirements of the Russian Federation;
- consultations on the issues of initial permit documentation and connection to engineering networks.
