Organization of the design and construction of an administrative building for a water transport infrastructure institution taking into account operational reliability and functional efficiency requirements

Abstract

Coastal administrative buildings that serve water transport infrastructure institutions – port administrations, dispatcher centers, basin authorities, navigation safety centers – operate under conditions that differ substantially from typical office facilities: elevated humidity of the water surface, aggressive groundwater, wind dynamics of open spaces, and the round-the-clock work requirements of operational dispatcher units. The current regulatory and methodological framework for organizing the design and construction of such objects remains fragmented; reliability criteria are formed by analogy with typical administrative buildings, without accounting for the combination of administrative and operational dispatcher functions. The aim of the work is to justify an organizational and technological model for the design and construction of an administrative building of a water transport infrastructure institution. Systems analysis of the regulatory base, critical-path network planning, and an integral reliability calculation based on the composition of partial coefficients have been applied; the empirical base consists of design materials of three objects implemented by LLC Stroyservice in 2021-2024. The proposed organizational scheme reduces the standard construction period by 19,3% (from 387 to 312 working days); the integral reliability coefficient increases from 0.943 to 0.972; the unit capital intensity decreases on average by 11,7%; the share of claims during the warranty period for the surveyed objects is 3,4% against 7,8% under the typical scheme. The results obtained are applicable in the preparation of feasibility studies and calendar plans of contracting organizations operating in the coastal zone of inland and marine water areas.
