Non-state expertise: procedure

To use the services of our company, you must submit an appropriate application, as well as a package of documents that includes the results engineering surveys and a copy of the project design assignment. We conclude an official contract with the developer, after which we carry out the following procedures:

• careful study of the submitted project documentation for its compliance with established standards, construction rules and technical conditions;
• identification of comments and familiarization with the customer. This stage takes no more than three working days;
• making changes, correcting design documentation aimed at eliminating the identified deficiencies and bringing the documents in line with the requirements imposed on them;
• re-examination. It is necessary if any technical solutions have been changed in the design documentation that affect the safety and reliability of the facility structure;
• execution of the conclusion. The final stage of the procedure, which takes 3 working days.

Experts of our company

Why do we need a non-state examination of project documentation?

The main task of the non-state expertise is to ensure the high quality of all design and technical solutions. In addition, the procedure allows you to achieve all of the following goals:

• to bring the design documentation in line with environmental requirements, to minimize or completely eliminate the harm caused by the facility being built to the environment;
• achieve a reasonable use of financial, energy and material resources;
• ensure the complete safety of the upcoming construction works and the operation of a building or structure.

When is an examination of project documentation not required?

Article 49 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation defines a list of objects, the design documentation for which can be approved without an expert examination:

• residential buildings, the design of which provides for the construction of no more than 3 floors;
• buildings and structures, the construction of which does not require a special permit;
• capital construction projects, the design of which provides for the construction of no more than 2 floors. This category includes both buildings intended for the implementation of industrial activities, and other structures. Exceptions are technically challenging, unique and especially dangerous objects;
• objects to be overhauled.

For all other objects, a mandatory state or non-state expertise is required. We recommend choosing the second option and using the services of our company to save both time and money.

New order state expertise of project documentation and engineering survey results in the Moscow region

G.S. AFANASIEVA, Deputy Head of the Department of State Expertise of the State Institution of the Moscow Region "Mosoblgosexpertiza" Since January 1, 2007, a unified state expertise of project documentation has begun its work in Russia. It replaced the polysyllabic and multi-stage system of specialized examinations that had been operating in our country for several decades and caused numerous complaints from developers. Now only one body is involved in the analysis of the project. He provides a comprehensive expert assessment of project documentation, including estimates, and engineering survey results. At the same time, especially dangerous, technically complex, unique and some other objects specially stipulated in the Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation (Civil Code of the Russian Federation) are tested at the federal level in the Glavgosexpertiza of Russia, all the rest - in the examination body of the subject of the federation, on the territory of which construction is planned. It should be noted that the state examination of project documentation and the results of engineering surveys in the original edition of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation was completely the subject of the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation. In December 2006, changes were made to the Group of Companies, according to which the powers to conduct state examination of project documentation and the results of engineering surveys (with the exception of specially stipulated objects, see below) were transferred to the constituent entities of the Federation. At the federal level, Rosstroy acts as the central executive body for organizing and conducting the examination. The examination at the federal level is entrusted to the Federal State Institution "Glavgosexpertiza of Russia" subordinate to Rosstroy. Rosstroy monitors and supervises the implementation of the state examination by the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, assesses the compliance with federal legislation of regulatory regulation at the regional level. Since the beginning of 2007, Rosstroy has been coordinating the structure of expert examinations in the field, assessing the ability of each organization to actually carry out expert examinations, to ensure independence, reliability and the required quality of conclusions. Already at the beginning of last year, Gosstroy agreed on the structures of authorized bodies in 22 constituent entities of the Federation, including in the Moscow region - "Mosoblgosexpertiza". The first year of work under the new rules was difficult both for the customers-developers, and for us, as for the body of the unified state expertise of the Moscow region. We had to rebuild our work without stopping or slowing down the actual examination procedure. In a short time, it was possible to create three new departments within the Department of State Expertise. In spite of all the difficulties of the transition period, in 2007, conclusions on project documentation were issued by 35.63% more than in the previous year. However, it must be admitted that in such a situation it was not possible to avoid negative moments. There appeared queues in the department of acceptance of project documentation, it was not always possible to carry out the examination of the examination promptly, as required in the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 5.03.07 No. 145. We know these problems and are taking all possible measures to eradicate them. Everyone knows the difficulties of the transition period. Establishing the work of the examination in a new way requires time and understanding on the part of customers-developers. We will try to make the first step towards mutual understanding between the customer-developer and the body of state expertise in this article. To begin with, we will explain the main points of the procedure for organizing and conducting an examination.

Separation of powers between federal center and expertise of the constituent entities of the Federation

Since 2007, the following division of powers has been established between Glavgosexpertiza and the bodies of state expertise of the constituent entities of the Federation. Glavgosexpertiza is in charge of objects that are planned to be built on the territory of two or more constituent entities of the Russian Federation, in the exclusive economic zone, on the continental shelf, in the internal sea ​​waters and in the territorial sea, defense and security facilities, cultural heritage federal significance, objects, information about which constitutes a state secret, as well as especially dangerous, technically complex and unique objects. The definitions of the latter are given in article 48.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (we draw your attention to the changes that were made to this article by the federal law of 4.12.07 No. 324-F3). Particularly hazardous and technically complex facilities include: facilities for using atomic energy; hydraulic structures of the first and second classes; line-cable communication facilities; power lines and other power grid facilities with a voltage of 330 kilovolts and more; objects of space and railway infrastructure; airports; subways; seaports, with the exception of specialized seaports intended for servicing sports and pleasure vessels; car roads common use federal significance and related transport engineering structures; hazardous production facilities. The unique ones include those capital construction objects, the design documentation of which provides for at least one of the following characteristics: height more than 100 meters; spans over 100 meters; the presence of a console more than 20 meters; deepening of the underground part (in whole or in part) below the planned level of the earth by more than 10 meters; the presence of structures and structural systems in relation to which non-standard calculation methods are applied, taking into account physical or geometric nonlinear properties, or special calculation methods are developed. The last position of this list requires clarification, as the Glavgosexpertiza of Russia proposes to classify the following as unique objects designed using structures or structural systems that require the use of non-standard calculation methods taking into account physical or geometric nonlinear properties or the development of special calculation methods, the following: tanks for storing oil and oil products with a capacity of more than 10 thousand cubic meters. m; drop-shaped and spherical tanks, gasholders; buildings and structures of complex non-rectilinear configuration; having coatings in the form of ribbed and ribbed-ring domes, mesh domes of shells, shells of double curvature, cable-stayed, membrane coverings, coverings of glued wooden elements, including frames, arches, crossbars, hanging coverings, etc .; buildings and structures with large area coatings with uneven load; objects, structures and engineering equipment of which are of an experimental nature. The design documentation and the results of engineering surveys for all objects that are not included in the above list are subject to examination by the appropriate body of the subject of the federation. It is worth noting that the current legislation provides for the possibility of conducting state expertise at the federal level by other federal executive bodies, if this is the decision of the President of the Russian Federation. So far, only the Russian Ministry of Defense has been vested with such powers in relation to military infrastructure facilities. According to the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 10.03.2000 No. 221 "military infrastructure facilities" are special technological complexes, buildings and structures intended for command and control of troops, placement and storage of military equipment, military property and equipment, testing of weapons, as well as military camps, industrial enterprises, public buildings and structures of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, other troops, military formations and bodies providing defense and security of the Russian Federation.

When expertise is not required

As you know, since 2007, the mandatory state examination of design documentation for some objects has been canceled. GU MO "Mosoblgosexpertiza" on numerous inquiries explains that it is possible to establish whether this or that documentation is subject to examination, guided by cl. 2 and 3 of article 49 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and part 17 of article 51 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Only in the case of complete coincidence of the features specified in one of the paragraphs of Parts 2 and 3 of Article 49 and Part 17 of Article 51, with the parameters of an object, a mandatory state examination is not carried out. GU MO "Mosoblgosexpertiza" does not have the right to give any of its own currents to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. For example, in clause 1 of part 2 of article 49 it is stated that an examination is not required without fail if you are building an individual residential building with a height of no more than three floors. We draw the attention of customers-developers that the city building code indicates the number of floors, and not the number of storeys of buildings. For example, a 2-storey residential building with an attic and a basement with a height of more than 1.8 m is a building with 4 storeys, i.e. expertise is required. Similarly, a 2-storey administrative building with attic floor - this is a detached capital construction object with 3 floors, i.e. It is impossible to “bring” such an object under clause 4 of part 2 of article 49. In this case, state expertise is also required if the total area of ​​this building is less than 1500 sq. M. In addition, state expertise is not carried out for standard design documentation and its modifications that do not affect the structural and other characteristics of reliability and safety. The criteria for referring project documentation to standard project documentation are (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations on the criteria for referring project documentation to standard project documentation, as well as to modified standard project documentation that does not affect the structural and other characteristics of reliability and safety of capital construction projects, approved by the Order of the Ministry of Regional Development 07/09/07 No. 62): - a positive conclusion of the state expertise in relation to the applicable standard design documentation, issued to any person no earlier than 7 (seven) years before the day the decision is made to reapply the design documentation; - the conclusion of the state construction supervision body (if such supervision was carried out in accordance with the legislation on urban planning) on ​​the compliance of the capital construction object built on the basis of the applicable standard design documentation, the requirements of such design documentation, and other regulatory legal acts; - a document confirming the compliance of the climatic, hydrogeological and other conditions specified in the standard design documentation in which it can be applied, the conditions in which it is to be applied repeatedly, signed by the person preparing the standard design documentation; - availability of a document confirming the right of the developer (customer) to use the standard project documentation, if the exclusive right to this standard project documentation belongs to another person (agreement on the alienation of the exclusive right, license agreement, sublicense agreement, etc.). The criteria for classifying the project documentation as a modified standard project documentation that does not affect the reliability and safety characteristics of capital construction facilities are: - the existence of criteria for classifying the project documentation as the standard project documentation specified above; - a conclusion confirming that the modification of the standard design documentation does not affect the structural and other characteristics of the reliability and safety of the capital construction facility, signed by the person preparing the standard design documentation. When referring design documentation to standard design documentation or to modified standard design documentation that does not affect the reliability and safety characteristics of capital construction facilities, it is necessary to have a set of criteria specified in the Regulation approved by the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation. If all the criteria for classifying the project documentation as a typical project documentation or its modification are available, then the results of engineering surveys, design solutions for foundations, a master plan and engineering support, as indicated in clause 15 of the "Provisions on the organization and examination of project documentation", in other words, the "binding" of a standard project. An expert examination can also be carried out in relation to objects that, according to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, are not subject to obligatory state expert examination, at the request of an interested party. As a rule, these are objects of budget financing and, at the request of the state investor, we carry out an examination design and estimate documentation to confirm the economic feasibility of the decisions made by the project and the compliance of the estimate documentation with the current rules and regulations in the field of pricing.

Composition of project documentation submitted for examination

The composition of the documents that are submitted for examination is approved in the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation "On the procedure for organizing and conducting state examination of project documentation and the results of engineering surveys" (No. 145 dated March 5, 2007). Taking into account the changes in this document, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 29, 2007 No. 970, the developer must submit an application for a state examination, project documentation, copies of design assignments and engineering surveys, and the results of engineering surveys. The composition of the sections of the design documentation is specified in clause 12 of Article 48 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. At the moment, there is a situation when the Government of the Russian Federation has not yet approved new requirements for the composition and content of project documentation. Until the relevant decision of the Government of the Russian Federation is issued, the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the instructions of SNiP 11-01-95 should be followed in the part that does not contradict the code. In December 2007, amendments were made to the law “On the introduction of the Urban Planning Code”. According to the new change, the introduction of Part 4 of Article 9, Part 6 of Article 45, Part 3 of Article 52 was postponed until January 1, 2010, which refer to the full transition to work only if there are duly approved territorial planning documents, land use and development rules. Thus, until 2010, there may be a place for territories for which territorial planning documents, land use and development rules have not been approved in the prescribed manner, the previously existing procedure under which the developer did not receive town planning plan land plot, and the APZ and carried out urban planning study, or urban planning justification, or a planning project, based on a specific situation at the request of the architecture authorities. In this regard, the examination requirements for the composition of the initial permitting documentation remain unchanged. And we will not require the Urban Planning Plan of the land plot without fail until 2010. It should be noted that the working documentation is not subject to examination, although when checking the project, the examination bodies can request everything related to the assessment of the structural reliability, operational safety of the facility. Thus, the examination has the right to request, and the developer and the design organization are obliged to submit, upon this request, both working documentation and the results of calculations. structural elements and other materials.

Expertise cost

The methodology for determining the cost of the examination is specified in the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation "On the procedure for organizing and conducting state examination of project documentation and the results of engineering surveys" (No. 145 of March 5, 2007). A special procedure for determining the cost of examination work has been established for the results of engineering surveys and projects of residential buildings. For these objects, the cost of the examination does not depend on how much the customer-developer paid the design organization for the design and survey, because it is based on two parameters residential building: building area and total area. For all objects, except for residential, the cost is established as a percentage of the cost of design and survey work and engineering surveys. The maximum is 33.75% (previously it was 20%). To determine the cost of the examination of these objects, it is necessary to know the cost of design and survey work, therefore, the developer should provide the expert body with estimates drawn up by design and survey organizations. To develop these estimates, reference books of the base cost of design and survey work for construction, recommended for use by Rosstroy (formerly Gosstroy), should be used. Based on these data, the cost of the examination is determined. The higher the cost of design and survey work, the lower the percentage for the examination. In the case of a standard project, payment is due to the examination of the results of engineering surveys and the variable part of the project, which, by habit, we also call the "binding" of a standard project.

Terms of examination

The term for conducting a state examination should not exceed three months. In addition, within no more than 45 days, a state examination is carried out: a) the results of engineering surveys, which are sent for state examination before sending the design documentation for this examination; b) design documentation or design documentation and the results of engineering surveys in relation to residential capital construction projects that are not unique objects; c) design documentation or design documentation and the results of engineering surveys in relation to capital construction objects, the construction, reconstruction and (or) overhaul of which will be carried out in special economic zones.

FAQ

Is there an examination of the planning project and the land survey project? There are no requirements for mandatory examination of these documents in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. However, as far as planning projects are concerned, the Administrations of cities and districts, which are entrusted with the authority to approve these documents, have the right to involve expertise to conduct their comprehensive analysis, since at this stage, fundamental issues of social, engineering and transport infrastructure are being resolved. Already, an openly commercial approach to the development of new quarters and micro-districts, the compaction of the existing existing buildings, the placement of multi-storey residential buildings in rural areas is causing concern. The investor aims to get as many square meters of housing as possible for sale. He does not care at all, but how reliable operation will be ensured engineering infrastructure, will the road network cope with the increased traffic flows, where future residents will take their children to school or kindergarten, where they will be provided medical assistance... Expertise in this situation could defend the interests of citizens, but the submission of documentation for expertise at this stage practically ceased with rare exceptions. It is worth recalling that if the approval is made without expertise, then full responsibility for possible negative consequences falls on the body that approved the urban planning documentation. For planning projects, these are municipal authorities. We welcome those Administrations that, with reasonable care, submit planning projects for examination. What should the planning project be in order for it to pass “painless” approval at your Institution? GU MO "Mosoblgosexpertiza" recommends that SNiP 11-04-03 "Instructions on the procedure for the development, coordination and approval of urban planning documentation" be followed. The layout project in terms of composition and content should be closer to the previously existing concept of "development project" (in the new Civil Code of the Russian Federation there is no such concept), since only in this case this document can become a full-fledged basis for the further development of construction projects. The explanatory note should provide justifications for the architectural and planning and volumetric-spatial solutions for development, the sequence of construction, types and types of residential and public buildings and them constructive solutions, systems of engineering arrangement and landscaping of the territory, placement of buildings and premises of institutions of social and cultural services for the population, technical and economic indicators of the development project are given. The explanatory note also contains proposals for the dispatching of engineering systems, sanitary and technical maintenance of residential and public buildings, other building elements and external landscaping of the territory. Graphic materials are developed on a scale of 1: 500 or 1: 1000 as part of: a general development plan, a landscaping and landscaping plan, a relief organization scheme, a plan of earth masses, and engineering infrastructure schemes. Such a planning project can be submitted to us for examination, we will consider it. It should be noted that the Administration municipality has the right to make a decision on the approval of the planning project further in the event that the result of the examination is a negative conclusion, i.e. the final decision is made by the local authorities. To date, the planning project is considered by the Glavarkhitektura and a document is issued, is it enough? This is an agreement, not an examination. What is the definition of auxiliary structures for which an examination is not required? What is your Institution's practice regarding auxiliary use items? We are not authorized to set these criteria. They are established only at the federal level. It is not necessary to separate engineering infrastructure objects (TP, central heating station, VNS, SPS) from the main, for example, a residential facility. Yes, for a residential building these are auxiliary objects, but it is impossible to assess the quality of a residential building project without considering decisions on these auxiliary objects. It depends on them whether there will be water, heat, light in every apartment, whether firefighters will be able to extinguish the fire, if, God forbid, it happens. The customer must submit a comprehensive project for examination. Sometimes there are more questions on auxiliary objects than on the main one. According to the state expertise of the Moscow region, it is necessary to carry out an examination of the facility together with the engineering infrastructure. What should be the SNiPs to be guided by now, in relation to those projects that were designed according to the old SNiPs and are they specified in the contract? Gosstroy on this occasion recommended using newer documents. Project documentation can receive a positive expert opinion if it fully complies with the current standards at the time of the expert examination. Is the working documentation subject to expert review? Working documentation should be developed in accordance with the project, which received a positive expert opinion. Working documentation is not subject to examination. Nevertheless, when considering a project, the expertise may request from you everything related to structural reliability, operational safety, then you are obliged to provide what was requested. What documents and to what extent are now required for an environmental impact assessment? Currently, there is no such thing as an environmental review of project documentation. Let me remind you that at present there is a unified state examination, which has been in effect since January 1, 2007. Conducting any other examinations from this time on is prohibited. As part of our Institution, a department has been created that is engaged in checking project documentation for compliance with environmental requirements. I draw your attention to the fact that the customer does not submit separately the documentation for environmental impact assessment. GU MO "Mosoblgosexpertiza" should conduct a comprehensive examination of your project in a maximum of 90 days, and residential buildings in 45 days. Can you replace the urban planning plan with something? Of course, we do not stop working because of his absence. At the same time, you need to provide us with a full set of initial permits. In addition, amendments were made to the Federal Law "On the Enactment of the Urban Planning Code" (dated 4.12.07 No. 324-F3), according to which the transition period associated with objective difficulties in the development of territorial planning documents, planning and development rules was extended until 2010 d. What are the criteria for evaluating project documentation and engineering survey results during expert examination? The subject of state expertise of project documentation is the assessment of its compliance with the requirements of technical regulations. But we still do not have these very regulations. There is no need to wait for their appearance, but it is necessary to be guided in the design by those standards that are in force today. Construction, sanitary, environmental, fire-prevention and other norms and rules, previously developed and operating in the field of construction, have concentrated in themselves a wealth of experience and knowledge in the field of design. Mandatory character remains with these documents in that part of the requirements that correspond to the goals of the Law "On Technical Regulation": protection of life and health of citizens, property of individuals or legal entities, state or municipal property; protection of the environment, life or health of animals and plants; prevention of actions misleading purchasers. Compliance with these standards will, as before, be monitored during the examination of project documentation, and during construction, and during the commissioning of facilities. Of course, the information provided in this article cannot answer all the questions that customers have - developers in the preparation of materials for submission to the examination and during the examination. I invite everyone who has read this article to take part in the discussion of the problems of state expertise, to express their comments and suggestions, to ask questions.

Examination of design documentation for the construction of openings in the main walls of buildings (with utilities)	45 500

To assess the compliance of project documents with the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation, SNiPs and GOSTs, an examination of the project documentation is carried out. Expertise of projects, depending on the organization conducting it, is of two types:

• state expertise of construction projects;
• non-state examination of project documentation.

In the second case, an independent examination of the project documentation is carried out by entity with the appropriate accreditation. Providing non-governmental organizations with the opportunity to carry out expert activities in this area introduced an element of competition into it and gave the customers of such services an opportunity to choose.

Examination of design and estimate documentation is one of the important stages in ensuring the general safety of buildings and structures under construction. In the course of the expert assessment, it is established whether the urban planning, design and other documentation complies with the available initial data, design and construction requirements, as well as technical conditions. During the examination of construction design documentation, the following parameters are monitored:

• ensuring operational safety, structural reliability and stability of the facilities being built;
• high quality architectural solutions;
• rational use of material, financial, energy and natural resources.

Federal legislation of Russia today establishes the need for an examination of project documentation in the event of preparation of capital construction, major repairs or reconstruction. On April 1, 2012, amendments were made to the Urban Planning Code, according to which the conclusions of the state and non-state examination of project documentation are considered legally equivalent. In this regard, the developer or other customer can independently choose whether to apply for expert examination of projects to a representative of the state or to an independent organization.

We provide services for the comprehensive examination of project documentation. In particular, our specialists are ready to check the documents for compliance with:

• standards adopted at the level of the state and individual organizations;
• technical regulations ecological and sanitary-epidemiological character;
• fire, industrial and other types of safety requirements;
• town planning regulations and land plot plan;
• design assignment;
• available estimated standards.

In some cases, the examination of engineering surveys must be carried out by a state body. In such situations, we provide comprehensive assistance in the preparation of project documents for an expert assessment conducted by the state. The documentation is prepared in the form required by the customer, including in electronic format. In addition, our specialists will professionally accompany the procedure for the examination of design and estimate documentation, which takes place in the state supervisory authority.

Examination of construction design documentation is carried out exclusively by state bodies in relation to:

• buildings and structures being built or reconstructed at the expense of budgetary funds;
• objects located on the territory of two or more constituent entities of the country;
• buildings of embassies, consulates and representations of Russia in other countries;
• objects located in the exclusive economic zone of the Russian Federation;
• objects located in the territorial sea of ​​the Russian Federation, in internal sea waters or on the continental shelf belonging to Russia;
• defense and other facilities, the information about which contains state secrets;
• federal highways;
• cultural heritage sites of federal, regional or local significance;
• especially dangerous, technically complex and unique objects;
• facilities where waste is placed and neutralized I-V class danger;
• other objects included in the relevant decrees of the government of the Russian Federation.

An independent examination of project documentation is carried out, including before the presentation of documents to state experts. This minimizes the risk that they will not be accepted by the main regulatory authority. At the same time, the examination of engineering surveys and estimates for the project may be voluntary. In such cases, the examination of the construction design documentation is initiated by the applicant to obtain information about the quality of the prepared project, which he plans to use for his own purposes.

The need for an examination of project documentation

Examination of construction projects and examination of estimate documentation is carried out not only due to the presence of relevant legal requirements. In particular, an expert assessment is necessary for the customer himself or his representatives, since even a small mistake can provoke a serious cost overrun. Thus, a qualified non-state expertise of projects allows you to insure not only against technical, but also against economic risks that may arise in the process of their implementation.

Expertise of estimate documentation is of great importance. The planning, distribution and efficiency of using capital investments largely depend on the reliability of determining the cost of building objects. A competently carried out examination of design and estimate documentation allows to prevent overstatement of the cost of construction, reconstruction or repair and eliminate other financial risks.

Our specialists have extensive experience in conducting expert examinations of estimate documentation. Most often, during the examination of design estimates, the following errors are found:

• incorrect definition of overhead costs, other costs and the conversion factor to current prices;
• use of mixed prices (normative for different years);
• incorrect selection of similar objects;
• overestimation of machine shifts, labor costs, transport and other costs;
• overestimation of the cost of materials;
• unjustified increase in construction time.

An independent examination of the project documentation will make it possible to eliminate cost overruns, regardless of the reason for its occurrence (incompetence, deliberate actions of the contractor, and so on). We employ experienced estimating experts who are ready to evaluate the documentation for projects of any complexity.

Expertise of engineering survey results

Only a professionally performed examination will help to reliably assess the quality of survey work. The Urban Planning Code of the Russian Federation says that it is necessary for experts to submit the results of engineering surveys and all project documentation for capital construction, repair or reconstruction objects for assessment.

The examination of engineering surveys is carried out in accordance with the approved regulations, which determine not only the procedure for carrying out the necessary procedures, but also the amount of payment for its implementation. The results of engineering surveys can be sent to experts for consideration immediately after the end of the survey work, or together with the project documentation. Expert assessments can be carried out by both an authorized state body and accredited non-governmental organizations.

Federal legislation defines a list of objects, work on which does not require an expert examination of engineering surveys. These include:

• detached residential buildings with a height of no more than three floors, intended for one family;
• residential buildings with a height of no more than three floors, made up of separate blocks (no more than ten), in each of which one family lives. In this case, the blocks have common walls and are not connected by openings with neighboring blocks, and the buildings are located on a separate site and have access to the territory intended for public use;
• apartment buildings no higher than three floors, consisting of no more than 4 block sections, each of which contains several apartments. The block section has a separate entrance and its own exit to the common area;
• stand-alone capital construction projects with a height of no more than two floors and an area of ​​no more than 1500 sq. meters, not intended for living and conducting production activities. Exceptions here are especially dangerous, technically complex and unique objects;
• stand-alone capital construction projects with a height of no more than two floors and an area of ​​no more than 1500 sq. meters, intended for conducting production activities, but not requiring the establishment of sanitary protection zones and not located on land plots with other facilities that require sanitary protection zones. The exception is especially dangerous, technically complex and unique facilities.

Expertise of engineering surveys in the listed cases is not required, but this does not eliminate the need to prepare the relevant project documentation. It is possible to get rid of this obligation only if there is a direct instruction from the GSK RF.

In addition to these cases, capital construction projects are exempted from an expert assessment, which are reapplied, subject to an earlier positive conclusion based on the results of the expert examination. This also includes cases of modification of the original documentation, which has been positively evaluated by experts, without affecting the design and other characteristics related to the reliability and safety of the facility.

The duration of the examination of engineering surveys depends on the complexity of the object being evaluated. In case of contacting a state organization, the period of consideration should not exceed three months. Non-governmental expert bureaus are ready to offer more suitable schemes for conducting an assessment of engineering surveys, which is very important, for example, if it is necessary to immediately start implementing a project.

Independent examination of projects is a guarantee of quality and reasonableness of cost.

Examination of projects is an obligatory stage in the course of implementation of technical supervision of construction. Experts specializing in the performance of construction and installation works, as well as competent lawyers and economists, are involved to conduct a state or independent examination of projects. Errors in the preparation of project documentation may lead to a refusal to accept the facility into operation. Non-state examination of construction projects will allow to identify all inaccuracies in time and eliminate ineffective schemes for spending money and other resources.

Within the framework of a non-state examination of construction projects, the validity of technological and structural solutions adopted in the design is determined. At the same time, the impact of the project's features on the cost of construction work is assessed, as well as their justification in terms of costs.

When performing non-state construction expertise one of the main points is the assessment of the validity estimated cost... It is very important for the customer to determine the exact cost of construction, as this allows you to plan your budget in detail and avoid unforeseen expenses in the future. In addition, the presence of the expert opinion of the project documentation prepared by specialists makes it possible to understand how adequate prices are offered by contractors.

When conducting a non-state examination of the cost of construction work, the following parameters are taken into account:

• type and composition of works planned within the framework of the project;
• the cost of performing these works, calculated in the estimate and regulatory framework and translated into commercial prices;
• the market value of the equipment used and building materials;
• market value analysis by comparing the equipment and building materials specified in the project with analogues;
• the amount of funds pledged for wages, overhead and unforeseen expenses.

The results of the non-state examination are drawn up in the form:

• recommendations for making changes to the design documentation;
• the conclusion of the examination of the project documentation, which contains reasonable conclusions about whether the documents on the project comply with regulatory enactments and established requirements.

Upon receipt of a negative expert opinion, the project documentation is sent for revision. After the shortcomings are corrected and the appropriate additions are made, the documents on the project are again sent to the experts for evaluation.

Benefits of project appraisal with our help

Non-state examination of projects has relieved of the state monopoly on expert assessment of construction, repair and reconstruction projects. Currently, customers and their representatives can independently choose an expert organization based on the cost of examination of project documentation and other parameters. Our company has been engaged in expert activities for a long time and has all the necessary specialists and permits to conduct an examination of project documentation.

2. Expert support of the project. If, in your case, the examination of project documentation should be carried out by a state structure, then we are ready to collect for its implementation Required documents and expertly accompany this procedure until the necessary positive decisions are obtained.
3. Affordable cost of services and flexibility in pricing. We work on the basis of a flexible pricing policy, which allows us to set the cost of examination of project documentation below the prices offered by government agencies. The total cost of the examination of project documentation in each case is individual and is calculated depending on the scale and other features of the project.

The result of the non-state examination of projects is a conclusion, which contains the following conclusions:

• the project documentation meets or does not meet the existing requirements;
• the results of engineering surveys correspond or do not correspond to the assignment and technical regulations.

Non-state expertise of construction projects, frequently asked questions

1. How long does it take to obtain an expert opinion on project documentation?

   The terms of the project expertise can be:

   • ordinary (2-3 months);
   • accelerated (individual terms, determined by the contract);
   • urgent (individual terms, determined by the contract).

Note that state bodies carry out an expert assessment only according to the first scheme, therefore, if time is limited, ordering a non-state construction expertise will help.

1. How much will it cost to carry out an examination of the project?

   The cost of an examination is always individual. It consists of four main factors:

   • the total area of ​​the premises of the assessed building;
   • the complexity and uniqueness of the object;
   • the complexity and cost of design and survey work;
   • the urgency of the examination.

The cost of the examination is determined after the initial review of the submitted documentation. Payment for the work of experts is made regardless of what opinion was received, positive or negative.

1. In what cases can the expert opinion be negative?

A negative conclusion of the examination of project documentation is issued when a large number of comments are found. After they are eliminated, the customer can submit documents for re-examination to experts.

1. Is the re-examination carried out in relation to all the documentation or only that part of it, in relation to which the edits were carried out?

This question usually arises with a large amount of project documentation and minor edits. When performing a repeated non-state construction expertise, only that part of the project documentation is assessed, to which changes were made. Along with this, the compatibility of the changes made with the project documentation that was previously assessed by experts is assessed.

1. Is it possible to eliminate deficiencies in the design documentation during the examination?

Yes, certain shortcomings (incomplete or lack of information, calculations, descriptions, diagrams, drawings, and so on) can be promptly eliminated within the framework of the expert examination without issuing a negative opinion and assigning a repeated expert examination. In this case, the inspection body informs the customer about the nature of the gaps in the documentation and determines the time frame for eliminating them. If the deficiencies are not eliminated within the specified time, then the expert body has the right to refuse further examination of the project and terminate the contract ahead of schedule. In this case, the customer is sent a written notification indicating the reasons for such a decision.

1. Will the documents submitted for examination be returned?

Documentation and other materials sent to the expert body as part of the non-state examination of construction projects are returned to the customer within the time frame established by the contract. The exception is materials that are placed in the case of a non-state examination (all this is negotiated in advance, there is no need to wait for surprises at this stage).

Non-state examination of projects is of great importance in those cases when it became necessary to assess how the existing project documentation complies with those legislative acts, standards and norms that are adopted in the construction industry at a particular point in time.

We can say with confidence that a non-state examination provides an excellent opportunity to guarantee the safety of the building to the customer. It is noteworthy that during the examination, experts determine to what extent the submitted documentation corresponds to generally accepted parameters. These parameters are indicators such as:

• safety of operation of the structure being erected;
• stability of the object that is planned for construction;
• reliability of the entire structure;
• rational approach to the use of energy, natural and material resources.

It is necessary to understand that the examination of design documentation is an important condition that must be met for the possibility of starting construction. In the event that the examination was not carried out, and there is also no positive decision on its results, the developer has no right to start the construction of the object or carry out its reconstruction work.

In the course of the examination, the object is checked for compliance with a number of criteria. First of all, a check is carried out for the compliance of design solutions with those contracts and agreements that were concluded between the parties, namely the developer and the investor. In addition, a check is made to verify that the available documentation complies with the regulations that apply to the current legislation. It also determines the procedure for carrying out, as well as the feasibility of those activities that relate to the development of the project. In the process of carrying out a non-state examination, experts determine how expedient it is to carry out additional work if there is such a need. At the same time, the circumstances that led to the need for additional work are checked in parallel.

Conducting a non-state examination gives guarantees that in the process of its carrying out the degree of feasibility of construction will be revealed, which, in turn, guarantees the safety of the facility. Also, in the process, the fact is revealed how effective the construction is from an economic point of view. It is necessary to understand that in order to issue the most objective conclusion, all documentation that may be related to the construction of a new structure, major repairs or reconstruction of a building should be subject to examination.

Our company has been providing its clients with the service of non-state examination of projects for many years. It should be noted that in comparison with the state expertise, this service has many advantages, since this method is very convenient and also profitable. In addition, this kind of examination can significantly save the amount of time spent. Our company, which offers its clients the service of non-state expertise, can also simultaneously provide services for correcting inaccuracies in the documentation, as well as consult or provide the necessary clarifications on projects.

By contacting us, you can be completely sure that the project will be brought to an ideal state. As a rule, a non-state examination takes from 10 days to several months. At the same time, the term directly depends on the amount of work. As for the more accurate time that may be needed for the examination, it is called after our specialists get acquainted with the upcoming volume of work. If during the inspection any inaccuracies or irregularities are revealed, the documents can be returned to the customer so that they can be corrected. After that, the experts of our company can re-check.

Naturally, our company has a license that allows it to carry out this type of activity.

Today, non-state expertise of projects is carried out in several stages. First of all, it is necessary for the customer to provide all available documents.

In the event that in the course of the examination, inaccuracies or violations are revealed, the customer can make changes and corrections to individual points, after which a second study is carried out. The final stage of non-state examination of projects is the issuance of an expert opinion.

It is noteworthy that the expert decision is an official document that confirms the right to carry out construction work. Today then expert opinion, which is issued by a non-governmental expert organization, has a similar force of action.

Naturally, project expertise can affect different aspects of construction. A technical design can be evaluated, which must clearly state how the design solution will be implemented. In addition, the examination may affect the economic feasibility or consider the correctness of filling out the documentation.

Today, the specialists of our company can carry out both full and partial examination of project documentation. Our team consists of specialists who are able to cope with any, even the most difficult task. Thus, our clients are guaranteed reliability, quality and efficiency of work.

Expertise of engineering surveys

Conducting a non-state examination of project documentation is an excellent solution if it comes to the need to assess the conformity of the project documentation that is available, as well as the results of engineering surveys carried out in accordance with the requirements that are established within the framework of the legislation, as well as building standards and rules. ... The main difference between this type of examination and the state one is that it is carried out by an accredited expert organization in private. As practice shows, non-state expertise has a number of significant advantages that distinguish it from the state one.

The examination itself is an important stage that ensures the complete safety of those construction objects that are considered in this context. At the same time, the legislation implies that a mandatory check is required for the compliance of project documentation with the norms of capital construction, repair and reconstruction. Modern urban planning code the conclusions of the state and non-state expert examinations were equal in their legal force. At the same time, the very emergence of non-state expertise relieved users of the state's monopoly in this area. And therefore, modern customers have the full right to choose a contractor based on the cost of the service, the timing of the examination and a number of other factors.

There are a number of main objectives in carrying out this examination. One of the most important goals is to obtain expert conclusions, which are necessary for the implementation of measures that increase the safety level of the facility. Based on the results of the examination of engineering surveys, an expert opinion is issued, which contains information reflecting the actual compliance of the documents with the requirements. During the examination, the initial data, as well as design, construction regulations and technical conditions... More precisely, we are talking about state standards, urban planning regulations, company internal standards, safety requirements and land plot plan. In addition, design buildings, estimated standards, as well as technical regulations can be accepted for consideration by experts.

The examination is aimed, first of all, at assessing the correct quality assurance of the object and its operational characteristics. At the same time, when making calculations, an assessment is made of financial, as well as natural, labor, energy and material resources. Also independent expertise is aimed at solving such issues as the consistency of construction solutions with the existing urban planning documentation and their validity, as well as the characteristics of engineering communications and their length, and so on. Experts who are entrusted with carrying out a construction examination of this type should study the validity of the considered design solutions from the point of view of the rational operation of the facility, as well as creating favorable conditions for people to stay here. The efficiency of using those volumes and areas that are available and so on can also be assessed.

An examination of engineering surveys can be carried out in order to assess the availability of the necessary approvals with the state supervision authorities, as well as help with the selection of the optimal site for construction. At the same time, the specialists who are engaged in carrying out an examination of this kind take into account all the necessary approvals, as well as engineering-geological, environmental and town-planning factors.

Separately, it should be noted that the experts conducting the examination can assess the validity of the capacity of the facility on the basis of those design solutions that are available. In addition, specialists can also determine how sufficient those solutions are that are aimed at preventing accidents and at eliminating their consequences if they occur.

An important aspect during the examination is the assessment of the safety of the operation of the facility in terms of explosion and fire safety, as well as in the field of sanitary requirements and labor protection, and so on.

It is necessary to understand that not only legislative norms are the basis for calling non-state experts. The results of the examination are aimed at primarily benefiting the customer. Competent and timely examination is a guarantee that it will become insurance against financial and technical risks. At the same time, an expert's assessment can be issued both in relation to estimate documentation and in relation to project documents. This, in turn, can allow to determine the degree of investment efficiency and determine the cost of the entire construction.

The regulation of non-state examination of the results of engineering surveys, as well as the organization of the examination of engineering surveys, is carried out at the level of the regulations approved by the state. In order for the expert assessment to be carried out in full, specialists need to provide a package of papers with project documents.

It should be noted that the conduct of non-state expertise has been carried out by our experts on an ongoing basis for several years now, and during this time we have managed to prove that the interests of our clients are above all.

The conclusion, which is issued based on the results of a non-state examination of engineering surveys, includes well-grounded conclusions that indicate the compliance or non-compliance of the design documents with the existing requirements. In the event that errors and violations were identified during the examination, recommendations are also made in the expert opinion that can be used to correct the error. It is important that if the applicant, acting on behalf of the developer, applied for an examination, he must provide documents that confirm his authority. After the examination, all documents are returned to the customer.
