Design of nuclear power plants in Russia

PK VESTA carries out the design of nuclear power plants in Russia and anywhere in the world using modern Rigid Framing and LSF technology. We build modern, functional steel buildings on a turnkey basis that meet the construction requirements and safety standards for objects of this type. Our company is a manufacturer, we offer individual terms of cooperation and prices are among the best on the market.

Structural features

In the construction of nuclear power plants, the focus is on safety. The structure must be durable, reliable, fireproof, withstand temperature extremes, snow and wind loads. Despite the fact that such facilities are being built in regions with low seismic activity, this factor is also taken into account.

A nuclear power plant is a complex of buildings of various types and purposes. The nuclear power industry today uses pre-fabricated construction technologies, as they can reduce construction costs by up to 50% and significantly reduce the time. If earlier the construction of a nuclear power plant took 5-10 years, today even a complex facility can be built in 3-6 months, and work can be carried out at any time of the year.

Today, there is a trend in the world for the construction of small power plants that can be built by private investors. Such commercial projects can bring good profit when using Rigid Framing and LSTC technology for construction. Buildings made of metal structures in terms of their performance are not inferior to capital ones, and in some aspects (energy efficiency, mobility, lightness of construction, etc.) they win.

Stages

The process of building a nuclear power plant from LSTK includes several stages:

Complex design.
Production of structural elements at the PK Vesta plant.
Delivery to the object.
Arrangement of the foundation and installation of the frame.
Cladding with sandwich panels
Installation of internal partitions, stairs, windows, doors.
Roof installation.
Laying of engineering networks.

Our company performs a full range of turnkey works based on a part of services from third-party partners. We will design a nuclear power plant in accordance with your requirements and budget, we will perform installation, laying of communications, and, if necessary, additional finishing and insulation.

The cost of building a nuclear power plant

Modern construction technologies make it possible to erect a steel building of any complexity and purpose, the cost of which is an order of magnitude lower than capital ones. We design nuclear power plants in accordance with the customer's budget, we offer solutions that allow us to build energy-efficient, reliable and functional buildings with minimal investment. Thanks to a wide network of international partners, we can build a nuclear power plant in any corner of the world in the shortest possible time.

You can calculate the cost of a nuclear plant using the WebSteel®service located on the PK VESTA website. The service allows you to perform all the necessary calculations, visualize the object, receive the necessary documentation and be serviced completely online 24/7.
