The building project was run by Arup with large-scale reconstruction works while maintaining the facade of the building (the facade of the building stands on rubble foundations, with beds laid 1.7 m deep), which led to cracks in neighboring buildings. During the installation of piles for the wall in the soil under the protective pipe, the weak water-saturated soil destructured when the pipe was immersed (the pipe was immersed by vibration) and began to flow into the pipe. The reason was that drilling was carried out to the bottom of the pipe (3-4 meters from the bottom of the pipe were not left to counteract the swimming of the soil), which also led to the fact that the volume of excavated soil significantly exceeded the volume of concrete that was pumped into the pipe. There was a vibration of the piles, the cracks that arose during the construction of the piles opened.
