GI (series of houses). Residential building GI series layout

At one time there was a joke about five-story buildings that Khrushchev “combined the bathroom with the toilet, but could not combine the floor with the ceiling.” In 1955, with the release of the Resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR “On the elimination of excesses in design and construction,” industrial housing construction actually began. The document prescribed by September 1, 1956, to develop “new standard designs for residential buildings of two, three, four and five floors... using the best domestic and foreign experience.”

The transfer of housing construction to an industrial footing was intended to ensure a bright future in which there is no place for communal apartments. And even though a three-generation family was supposed to live in a three-room apartment, each one had its own bath and miniature kitchen. The 1957 standards allowed for the construction of residential premises with a height of 2.5 m, kitchens with a height of 4.5 sq. m. m, adjacent rooms and combined bathrooms. Minimum areas bedrooms - from 6 sq. m per person, and from 8 sq. m for two, common room - at least 14 sq. m. As mandatory elements The apartments had a storage room or built-in wardrobe.

In Leningrad, mass housing construction was carried out by four house-building factories (DSK) - Polyustrovsky, Obukhovsky, Kuznetsovsky and Avtovsky, for which “branded” series of five-story buildings were developed. Year after year, adjustments and improvements were made to the primary projects.

"Kopeck piece" at the price of "three rubles"
Today, prices for Khrushchev’s one-room apartments (31-33 sq. m.) in well-preserved houses in residential areas of the “middle” zone of St. Petersburg, near metro stations, remain stably around 3 million rubles. But at such prices they sometimes offer miniature apartments in small-sized new buildings, and in panel “ships”, and so-called janitors’ rooms in the old building. But two- and three-room Khrushchev apartments have no price competitors. For example, the offer of two-room apartments in houses of the 1-335LG series with adjoining rooms area 42 sq. m, as well as the most affordable “three rubles” in five-story buildings of the GI series (41 sq. m.) starts at 3.5 million rubles. That is, these are the most affordable St. Petersburg apartments.

In our century, panel Khrushchev buildings were either beginning to be modernized or condemned to demolition en masse. But if, for example, in the capitals of the Baltic countries, panel houses of that period were subjected to total modernization and they changed beyond recognition, then in our city, talk about the redevelopment of five-story buildings has now come to naught. After all, Khrushchev blocks are often located in areas with low building density, but at the same time high urban planning value.

Experts believe that in the foreseeable future, prices for apartments in five-story buildings may undergo adjustments, both in one direction and the other: it all depends on how much the citizens “like” the first results (we will see the result this year).

The main disadvantages of five-story panel buildings are not the small square footage of the apartments (modern builders sometimes offer less spacious housing), but poor sound insulation and walls that do not retain heat. But Khrushchev apartments also have serious advantages over other types of apartments. Firstly, the houses of the first mass series - due to the lightness of the structure and, accordingly, low loads on the foundation - have a good margin of safety and are quite repairable. Secondly, the main blocks of the city's Khrushchev-era buildings are no longer outskirts.

Who's who in five-story St. Petersburg
The most widespread and most successful type of St. Petersburg five-story buildings of the first generation are houses of the 1-507LG series. After the 507th series was put on the assembly line of the Kuznetsovsky DSK in 1959, its modifications began to be built in almost all areas until 1972. But the main blocks of such houses are located in close proximity to the manufacturing enterprise - in the Moskovsky district (along Vitebsky Avenue) and Kupchino.

Of all the first-generation panel five-story buildings, the 507th series is the warmest. Facade panels they are decorated with white ceramic tiles with colored inserts, which, although gray with time, did not crumble. All apartments have built-in wardrobes or storage rooms, and in two- and three-room apartments they are very spacious - up to 2.5 square meters. m. Kitchen area - from 5.5 to 6 square meters. m. Adjacent bathrooms are only available in one-room apartments (although not in all modifications).

Five-story buildings of the 1-335LG series, widespread in the Kalininsky region, were less fortunate. They began to be produced at the Polyustrovsky DSK in 1959 and were discontinued in the mid-1960s, when it turned out that the outer panels, which are “ layered cake» with wet mineral wool, unsuitable for the local climate. They do not store heat and “hold” much worse than expanded clay concrete panels of the 507 series ceramic cladding. Nevertheless, in many regions of the USSR, on the basis of the “Leningrad” 335 series, until 1972, five-story, seven- and nine-story buildings were erected, including earthquake-resistant modifications. Thus, these are very structurally strong buildings, and insulating the facades and roofs could extend their service life for decades.

The layout of the apartments here is similar to those in the houses of the 507 series: there are balconies and spacious storage rooms (“mother-in-law’s rooms”). The only key difference is that combined bathrooms (there is also a modification with hip baths) and miniature hallways made it possible to increase the kitchen area to 7 square meters. m. All apartments, except those on the first floors, have balconies.

Houses of the OD series were erected on a massive scale by the Obukhovsky DSK in the Nevsky district. There is also a small area in Kupchino (near the Bukharestskaya metro station, between Bukharestskaya Street and Volkovsky Prospekt), as well as fragments of infill development in different parts Moskovsky district. According to the planning characteristics, these houses are a copy of the “exemplary” Moscow K-7 series (the famous “Lagutenko houses”). They have decent layouts compared to other Khrushchev buildings: separate bathrooms, not the smallest kitchens (about 7 sq. m), spacious rooms of correct (that is, close to square) proportions from 11 to 18 sq. m. m. There are no loggias or balconies in such houses, but two- and three-room apartments, as a rule, are double-sided.

In terms of heat loss, these houses are among the most problematic. The external wall panels here, as well as in the 335 series, have a layer of mineral wool insulation, which has become wet and destroyed over many years of use.

The strategic differences between the five-story buildings of the GI series (Avtovsky DSK, the main blocks are in the Kirov and Krasnoselsky districts) from other Khrushchev buildings are the outer walls made of aerated concrete panels and layouts, in which one can actually discern the borrowing of the “best foreign experience” of social housing. These houses also have no balconies or loggias, and there are two apartments per floor. Because of this planning feature, there was no place for one- and two-room apartments in the basic project. But three-, four- and five-room apartments are double-sided, and in the end sections they are three-sided. These are democratic family apartments: they have 15-16-meter “halls” through which you can go into a miniature kitchenette, separated from the living room by an opening (in early modifications it did not have a door, and isolated kitchens in such apartments are most likely a consequence later redevelopments), as well as tiny bedrooms from 6 to 8 square meters. m. Bathrooms are only adjacent.

In addition to five-story buildings, the GI series includes single-entrance eight- and nine-story “spot” houses (see plan), where “one-room apartments” and “two-room apartment buildings” are collected (which, we remind you, are not present in five-story buildings). Moreover, one-room apartments in such “points” are a prototype of modern studio apartments: they have an area of ​​23 or 27 square meters. m, rooms 12 or 16 sq. m and kitchen niches of 4 or 5 sq. m with a passage through the living room.

As for external walls made of aerated concrete panels, their ability to store heat depends on their condition. In the past decade, some of these five-story buildings were modernized and insulated. But for the vast majority of “panels” of the GI series on the thermal imager monitor, the interpanel seams “glow” from the inside due to heat loss.

Transition plans
What layout solutions for apartments are most common in Khrushchev-era buildings? Firstly, the standard step of transverse walls for a five-story panel building (3.2 m) led to the appearance of narrow rooms, like carriages, with a window at the end (in the “panel buildings” of that period there are no rooms wider than 3.1 m).

Secondly, studying the layouts of houses of different series, you can notice that ordinary block sections, as a rule, consist of “two-room apartments” with adjacent rooms. One-room apartments there were few in panel five-story buildings: they did not fit well into floor plans, which suggested the presence of two or four apartments per floor. There are also fewer three-room apartments in Khrushchev-era buildings than in houses of later construction. True, there are options when, instead of two neighboring two-room apartments, a three-room and a one-room apartment were provided.

Inter-apartment sound insulation with such a “division of property” is practically absent. Nevertheless, thanks to such apartment architecture, communal apartments are rarely found in five-story buildings consisting entirely of apartments with adjacent rooms. Apartments in the end sections most often have slightly different layouts. They may have not only scarce one-room apartments, but also two-room apartments with isolated rooms.

There are no insulated buildings in Khrushchev ground floors and attics, so the upper apartments overheat in the summer and freeze in cold weather, and residents of the first floors are sometimes forced to live in conditions of high humidity and breathe fumes from leaky pipes in the basement.

But the designers of Khrushchev-era apartments, unlike the developers of the “panels” of subsequent generations, did not yet realize that linoleum could be laid directly on concrete base. Therefore, five-story panel buildings, as a rule, have parquet or plank floors laid on logs made of boards or timber, providing acceptable interfloor sound insulation. But the space under the floors in such houses is usually filled with sand with a fair amount of construction waste. When sorting them out, repairmen find many “artifacts” from the time of the shock five-year plans - vodka bottles, cans, bread crusts and herring skeletons wrapped in newspaper. Such filling of floors is sometimes the main cause of dust and unpleasant odors. A new owner who began modernizing an apartment by dismantling the floor and removing garbage usually notes that after pouring a new concrete floor screed, the atmosphere in the home becomes much better.

High-quality renovation of an apartment in Khrushchev implies the replacement of all communication pipes, plumbing, window and door units and allows you to get almost new apartment, albeit in a house that has already changed half a century.

GI series

A very common series in the Kirov and Krasnoselsky districts, the backbone of the development there. Developed at the Lenproekt Institute. Architects: V. A Kamensky, A.V. Zhuk, N.Z Matusevich.
The difference from all other types of houses is that there are 10 apartments in the front door, that is, two apartments per floor. And there are also spot six-, eight- or nine-story buildings (most often nine), giving variety to the “Khrushchev” buildings in Dachny, Ulyanka and in the western part of the Moskovsky district. There are several of these on Sedova Street. They are painted in different colors, usually white or yellow. The outlets have 6 apartments per floor.
Houses in this series were built from 1959 to 1968. The external walls are made of lightweight aerated concrete panels. Until 1961 the houses were made of large blocks. After that, houses were assembled from large panels. The walls were not decorated with anything - just painted slabs. There are no balconies. Just as there are no one- and two-room apartments (applicable to houses of the G-2i and G-3i series).
Typical three bedroom apartment: two bedrooms (6 and 9 sq.m.), living room (15 sq.m.), combined bathroom - 2.2 sq.m., hallway with built-in wardrobe and kitchen (5.5 sq.m.), common area about 43 sq.m. Entrance to the kitchen from the common room - living room. The ceilings in the bathrooms are only 2.3 m. The layout of a four-room apartment is no different from a three-room apartment.
Most of such houses are located in the Kirovsky, Moskovsky and Krasnoselsky districts.
The disadvantage of this series is that the houses are too cold in winter and very hot in summer, therefore, it is necessary to insulate the external walls. However, since the adoption of the resolution “On the Regional Program for the Reconstruction of Residential Buildings of the First Mass Series” (2000), only a few buildings of the GI series have been subjected to the necessary rehabilitation in St. Petersburg. A typical example is houses No. 34, 36 on the street. Chervonny Cossacks. They were sanitized without relocating residents. The walls are insulated and decorated, the “carpentry” has been replaced with metal-plastic, and the plumbing has been completely replaced.
Currently, several blocks where the GI series houses are located are included in the program for the renovation of Khrushchev-era buildings. At the beginning of 2017 several houses are in the process of being resettled or demolished.
It should be noted that the building materials from which the GI series houses were assembled contained a significant content of asbestos, which is unsafe for health.

House characteristics:
House type - aerated concrete panels
Number of storeys - 5,6,8,9
Height of living quarters - 250 cm
Apartments - 1,2,3,4,5 rooms
Manufacturer - DSK-3 (Avtovsky)
Years of construction: 1959-1968
Distribution cities: St. Petersburg, Vyborg.

Layouts of standard sections







Modifications of this series:

  • G

"Series G". The series was built from aerated concrete blocks in only two configurations and for only three years, from 1959 to 1961. The end windows of the G-2 project are brought together, while those of the G-3 are spaced at the corners.


Serial configurations:

o G-2: 5 floors, 5 front and 50 apartments;

The first house of series G: Avtovskaya st. 34 (project G-1)

o G-3:

  • GI

"GI Series". The series was built from aerated concrete panels in five- and seven-parade configurations. The end windows, like those of block houses, are close to each other in the G-2i project, and are spaced at the corners in G-3i. But the outer front doors of the G-2i project are larger in size than the middle ones. The G-3mi modification stood on an additional foundation and on the ground floor of this already 6-story building there are shops. Only 6 such houses were built in Leningrad on Krasnoputilovskaya Street, between Avtovskaya and Chervonnoy Cossacks.


Serial configurations:

o G-2i: 5 floors, 5 front doors and 50 apartments;

o G-2i: 5 floors, 7 front and 70 apartments;

GI- a series of mass housing in the USSR, developed at Lenproekt in the 1950s. They were built in Leningrad and Kolpino, Kingisepp, Vyborg, Priozersk and Pikalevo from 1959 to 1968, also in the village of Sverdlov and individual houses in Lomonosov, the village of Lensovetovsky, Ust-Izhora, Koltushi, Nikolskoye, Lyuban and the village. Pudomyagi (Gatchina district). They are located primarily in the Kirovsky (1,420 thousand sq. m.), Moskovsky (268 thousand sq. m.) and Krasnoselsky (138 thousand sq. m.) districts of St. Petersburg. As of 2011, the housing stock of this series totals more than 2 million square meters. meters of total area. The manufacturer of these houses was Avtovsky DSK (DSK-3), specially built for the manufacture of such houses. During production, asbestos was added to the slabs.

Until 1961, houses were made of large blocks (G-1I and G-3I). Then the houses were assembled from large panels.

The external walls are made of lightweight aerated concrete elements. The walls were not decorated - color was added to the slabs during production. There are no balconies or window sills. Distinctive features of this series are the presence of only two apartments per floor (a total of 10 apartments in the front room), as well as the absence of one-room and two-room apartment options (only three-room 41 sq.m. and four-room 49 sq.m.). The apartments have kitchens with an area of ​​5 sq. m, combined bathrooms - 2 sq. m. Ceiling height is 2.5 m, and in the bathroom 2.3 m. One-room and two-room apartments appeared only in later "towers".

In Soviet times, a three-room apartment was called “fifteen-nine-six” - these numbers indicated the area of ​​the rooms. And everyone who was involved in exchanges in those years understood perfectly well what type of houses and what kind of apartments we were talking about. The four-room apartment differed from the three-room apartment only in the presence of one more room - 8 square meters. m.

Housing in these houses is one of the most inexpensive and accessible in St. Petersburg.

In the 1990s - 2000s, the prospects for reconstructing houses of the GI series were discussed, but a unified approach has not yet been developed. In 1991, an experimental overhaul of the house at 3 Novatorov Boulevard was carried out, with redevelopment and the addition of a technical floor. In the early 2000s, several GI series houses in Dachnoye were demolished.

Notes

An excerpt characterizing the GI (series of houses)

“Yes, but, entre nous, [between us],” said the princess, “this is an excuse, he actually came to Count Kirill Vladimirovich, having learned that he was so bad.”
“However, ma chere, this is a nice thing,” said the count and, noticing that the eldest guest was not listening to him, he turned to the young ladies. – The policeman had a good figure, I imagine.
And he, imagining how the policeman waved his arms, laughed again with a sonorous and bassy laugh that shook his entire plump body, as people laugh who have always eaten well and especially drunk. “So, please, come and have dinner with us,” he said.

There was silence. The Countess looked at the guest, smiling pleasantly, however, without hiding the fact that she would not be at all upset now if the guest got up and left. The guest's daughter was already straightening her dress, looking questioningly at her mother, when suddenly from the next room several men's and women's feet were heard running towards the door, the crash of a chair being snagged and knocked over, and a thirteen-year-old girl ran into the room, wrapping something in her short muslin skirt, and stopped in the middle rooms. It was obvious that she accidentally, with an uncalculated run, ran so far. At the same moment a student with a crimson collar, a guards officer, a fifteen-year-old girl and a fat, ruddy boy in a children's jacket appeared at the door.
The count jumped up and, swaying, spread his arms wide around the running girl.
- Oh, here she is! – he shouted laughing. - Birthday girl! Ma chere, birthday girl!
“Ma chere, il y a un temps pour tout, [Darling, there is time for everything,” said the countess, pretending to be stern. “You keep spoiling her, Elie,” she added to her husband.
“Bonjour, ma chere, je vous felicite, [Hello, my dear, I congratulate you,” said the guest. – Quelle delicuse enfant! “What a lovely child!” she added, turning to her mother.
A dark-eyed, big-mouthed, ugly, but lively girl, with her childish open shoulders, which, shrinking, moved in her bodice from fast running, with her black curls bunched back, thin bare arms and small legs in lace pantaloons and open shoes, I was at that sweet age when a girl is no longer a child, and a child is not yet a girl. Turning away from her father, she ran up to her mother and, not paying any attention to her stern remark, hid her flushed face in the lace of her mother’s mantilla and laughed. She was laughing at something, talking abruptly about a doll that she had taken out from under her skirt.
– See?... Doll... Mimi... See.
And Natasha could no longer speak (everything seemed funny to her). She fell on top of her mother and laughed so loudly and loudly that everyone, even the prim guest, laughed against their will.
- Well, go, go with your freak! - said the mother, feigning angrily pushing her daughter away. “This is my youngest,” she turned to the guest.
Natasha, taking her face away from her mother’s lace scarf for a minute, looked at her from below through tears of laughter and hid her face again.
The guest, forced to admire the family scene, considered it necessary to take some part in it.
“Tell me, my dear,” she said, turning to Natasha, “how do you feel about this Mimi?” Daughter, right?
Natasha did not like the tone of condescension to childish conversation with which the guest addressed her. She did not answer and looked at her guest seriously.
Meanwhile, all this young generation: Boris - an officer, the son of Princess Anna Mikhailovna, Nikolai - a student, the eldest son of the count, Sonya - the count's fifteen-year-old niece, and little Petrusha - the youngest son, all settled in the living room and, apparently, tried to keep within the boundaries of decency the animation and gaiety that still breathed from every feature of them. It was clear that there, in the back rooms, from where they all ran so quickly, they were having more fun conversations than here about city gossip, the weather and Comtesse Apraksine. [about Countess Apraksina.] Occasionally they glanced at each other and could hardly restrain themselves from laughing.
Two young men, a student and an officer, friends since childhood, were the same age and both were handsome, but did not look alike. Boris was a tall, fair-haired young man with regular, delicate features of a calm and handsome face; Nikolai was a short, curly-haired young man with an open expression on his face. Black hairs were already showing on his upper lip, and his whole face expressed impetuosity and enthusiasm.
Nikolai blushed as soon as he entered the living room. It was clear that he was searching and could not find anything to say; Boris, on the contrary, immediately found himself and told him calmly, jokingly, how he had known this Mimi doll as a young girl with an undamaged nose, how she had grown old in his memory at the age of five and how her head was cracked all over her skull. Having said this, he looked at Natasha. Natasha turned away from him, looked at her younger brother, who, with his eyes closed, was shaking with silent laughter, and, unable to hold on any longer, jumped and ran out of the room as quickly as her fast legs could carry her. Boris didn't laugh.
- You seemed to want to go too, maman? Do you need a carriage? – he said, turning to his mother with a smile.
“Yes, go, go, tell me to cook,” she said, pouring out.
Boris quietly walked out the door and followed Natasha, the fat boy angrily ran after them, as if annoyed at the frustration that had occurred in his studies.

Of the young people, not counting the countess's eldest daughter (who was four years older than her sister and already behaved like a grown-up) and the young lady's guest, Nikolai and Sonya's niece remained in the living room. Sonya was a thin, petite brunette with a soft gaze, shaded by long eyelashes, a thick black braid that wrapped around her head twice, and a yellowish tint to the skin on her face and especially on her bare, thin, but graceful, muscular arms and neck. With the smoothness of her movements, the softness and flexibility of her small limbs, and her somewhat cunning and reserved manner, she resembled a beautiful, but not yet fully formed kitten, which would become a lovely little cat. She apparently considered it decent to show participation in the general conversation with a smile; but against her will, from under her long thick eyelashes, she looked at her cousin [cousin] who was leaving for the army with such girlish passionate adoration that her smile could not deceive anyone for a moment, and it was clear that the cat sat down only to jump more energetically and play with your sauce as soon as they, like Boris and Natasha, get out of this living room.

When it comes to standard houses built from panels or bricks, it seems to an unprepared person that they are all the same. But with a detailed study of the issue, you can not only learn to distinguish between houses of the 137 and 602 series, but also trace the development of design ideas that have passed from the creation of prefabricated analogues of spacious “Stalinka” buildings with similar areas and ceiling heights, through the most cramped and extremely cheap “Khrushchev” buildings, to modern standard projects, in no way inferior to their competitors, made according to individual projects.

Panel "Stalinka" 1-506 . The houses were built on Okhta, Kantemirovskaya Street and one on Petrogradka (the only panel house in the Petrogradsky district).

Panel GI. Houses in this series were built from 1959 to 1968. The external walls are made of lightweight aerated concrete panels. The walls were not decorated with anything - just painted slabs. There are no balconies. The cocoons have special boxes for growing flowers - so that the house does not look completely empty.

Panel GI spot. Unlike the multi-entrance version, the GI series dotted house offers 1- and 2-room apartments. There is a light lantern on top to illuminate the entrance.

Panel OD. Completely identical to the K-7 series, built in Moscow and other cities Soviet Union. It also exists as a hostel.

Panel 1-335 . For appearance 1-335 is characterized by wide apartment windows (double windows look square and on average 10 cm wider than those of other “Khrushchev” buildings of that period), elongated windows on the staircases, almost the entire height of the panel. End walls without balconies, consist of 4 panels, two panels with windows in the center or along the edges. The largest number of houses in this series were built in St. Petersburg, where they were produced by Polyustrovsky DSK - 289 buildings, a total of 1,442 sections in the Krasnogvardeisky and Kalininsky districts of the city.

Panel 1-LG-502. The material of the panels is the same expanded clay concrete as that of the 1-335 series. The main development area is Nevsky and Frunzensky districts. In terms of heat loss, houses of the OD series “compete” only with 1-335. And they often lose even to them. There are also cramped combined bathrooms with an area of ​​about 2 square meters. m, 5-meter kitchens.

Panel 1-507 series. These five-story buildings were assembled from “lightweight” expanded clay concrete with mineral wool insulation.

Panel 1-507 series, modification of 7 floors. Equipped with elevators and garbage chutes.

Panel 1-LG-504. Further development of the 507 series, produced at the same Kuznetsovsky DSK. The early houses differed little from the previous Khrushchev buildings in terms of comfort and apartment space, but the later 504D2, which grew to 10 floors, had spacious rooms and a kitchen with two windows. They were built both in St. Petersburg and in the suburbs.

Panel 1-LG-504, 12 floors. These houses have a smoke-free staircase with common transitional balconies, and on the first floor there can be both apartments and shops.

Panel 1-LG-600"Ship". The construction of houses of the 600th series was carried out by Avtovsky DSK according to the Polish project revised by LenNIIproekt from 1967 to 1982 in Leningrad and its suburbs. There are 5, 9, 12 and 15-storey (the latter - only point) buildings of this series.

Panel 1-LG-600U. It was distinguished by the increased area of ​​​​the kitchens of 3-room apartments. As a rule, 15-story buildings were built with multiple entrances.

Panel 600.11. Further development of the legendary "ship". Initially, kitchens had L-shaped windows (for installing window Baku air conditioners), but in the late 90s they began to install traditionally shaped windows.

Panel 1-LG-602. this is one of the most famous and widespread series of houses in Leningrad. Such houses were built from 1966 to 1982. The first house in this series is located at Prazhskaya Uditsa, 39. The construction of the houses was carried out by Nevsky, Obukhovsky (DSK-2) and Polyustrovsky (DSK-1) house-building combines.

Panel 1-LG-606 early. Construction panel houses The 606th series was carried out according to the LenNIIproekt project by Nevsky DSK-6. Apartments in the series of houses have parquet floors in the rooms and separate bathrooms. Room area - 8-18 square meters. meters.

Panel 1-LG-606M. Built from 1971 to 1989.

Panel 1-LG-606M 14-storey with 9-storey side sections.

Panel BS. They were built exclusively in the area of ​​the Primorskaya metro station in 1967-1970. The first block-section buildings of 9-12-16 floors with a more progressive layout and a unified staircase-elevator unit - the same LLU was used for buildings of different number of floors. In 9 and 12 storey block sections they differ only in the presence of a freight-passenger elevator in the 12-storey version. Many of the techniques developed here were further developed in the first version of the 137 series.

Panel 137 series. The first house was built in Kupchino in 1973 from components produced by DSK-2. Afterwards the houses spread throughout all the outskirts of Leningrad. It is still being built in a modified form (for example, the Novaya Okhta district).

Panel 137 with aerated concrete external panels.

Panel 137 series, built in the 90s and 2000s.

Panel 121 . It was built mainly in the Leningrad region. in St. Petersburg in Soviet years Only a few houses were built in the Krasnogvardeisky and Vyborg districts, all of them 12-story buildings.

Panel 121 modern. A series of panel houses are being built over a long period of time, a modification developed by the Gatchina DSK based on the 121 series, the buildings are found in new residential areas of St. Petersburg. Apartments have good layouts, large areas. The materials meet the most modern requirements, including heat and sound insulation. The area of ​​kitchens in 121 series is from 12 to 14 sq.m.

Panel 90LO-M. The development of the regional 90LO series, which is not represented in St. Petersburg, is carried out by the Kirishi DSK.

Panel. Optima is a trademark of the Gatchina SSC.

Panel 1-464A. All-Union and very common series in the Leningrad region. It was not built in St. Petersburg.

Panel KPD-4570. A series of military 5-story buildings built throughout the USSR.

Panel P-101. Number of floors - 5-9-10 floors, apartments - 1,2,3-room. Years of construction: 1980s-1990s. The projects were developed by the 53rd Central Design Institute of the Ministry of Defense and were built throughout the USSR.

Single-leaf plastic window 700 X 1550 mm

In the Khrushchev-era GI series, the window in the kitchen has a single-leaf design. Two opening modes - turn and tilt, energy-saving double-glazed windows.

Brief characteristics of the Khrushchev GI series

A series of GI houses were built in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region by Avtovsky DSK. There are no balconies in such houses. Kitchens with an area of ​​5 sq. m, combined bathrooms.
