On 31 January, the XXXIV International Research Paper Competition was held under the auspices of the All-Russian Society of Scientific Researchers PT Science. Aleksey Barbashov, a master's student in the SPbGASU Department of Construction Management, received a third-place diploma for his research "Analysis of sports facilities reconstruction organization methods."
The work also received approval from the professional community at the LXXVIII National Scientific and Practical Conference of Students, Postgraduates, and Young Researchers, "Current Issues of Modern Construction," held at SPbGASU in October of last year.
The research supervisor was the Head of the Department of Construction Management, PhD of Engineering Sciences, Associate Professor Roman Motylev.
In his work, Aleksey Barbashov examines the current challenges of reconstructing sports facilities within existing infrastructure. Particular attention is paid to implementing projects while maintaining the facilities' operational status—a task of significant socioeconomic significance, particularly in dense urban environments.
The study analyzed the organizational, technological, economic, and managerial aspects of sports facility renovation. Key constraints were identified, including spatial logistics, the non-compliance of outdated facilities with modern regulatory requirements, and financial and regulatory barriers.
The author proposes approaches to optimizing construction and installation work based on adaptive planning, the use of digital management tools (including BIM technologies), and the implementation of energy-efficient solutions. He substanitiated the effectiveness of hybrid financing models and the multifunctional transformation of sports facilities, ensuring their long-term sustainability and commercial viability.
We congratulate Aleksey and his supervisor on this well-deserved recognition and wish them continued scientific achievements!
