The reconstruction of the basement of a two-story brick building is considered. The reconstruction of the basement was preceded by a technical inspection of structures and elements, which revealed damage. The condition of the basement structures was assessed, the causes of damage were identified, and a project was developed to eliminate them. The main tasks of the reconstruction included: eliminating the facts of flooding by waterproofing the walls and floor of the basement, developing a recipe for dry mix for shotcrete, eliminating the identified damage and reconstructing the basement walls.
