A team from Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, consisting of fourth-year students Alexander Kolosov and Daniil Milyutin, majoring in "Construction of Unique Buildings and Structures" at the Civil Engineering Institute, won the finals of the Alabuga BIM competition in information modeling technology.

The "Alabuga BIM" competition aims to identify and support future professionals capable of applying advanced BIM technologies to the design of modern infrastructure. Fifty talented students from 14 Russian regions competed for the title of best BIM designer.

The competition was organized by Alabuga Development and Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. Lilia Talipova, a senior lecturer at the Higher School of Pedagogics and Design, served as the expert and developer of the SPbPU competition task.

The competition task required participants to design a miniature special economic zone (SEZ) and accommodate three residents. Each team was assigned a development site with specific technical requirements.

The result of the work was a detailed visualization of the adopted design solutions and a project defense before an expert committee.

Following the competition, the SPbPU team, led by Alexander Mitin, assistant professor at the Higher School of Industrial, Civil, and Road Construction of the Civil Engineering Institute, took first place.

"The experience of participating in this competition was extremely positive. During the in-person stage, we were given a fairly extensive task, which required us to almost completely redesign our original models. Thanks to a well-thought-out plan and coordinated teamwork, we were able to fully complete the task. It was very interesting to work on the concept of our own SEZ during the remote stage, and equally exciting to accommodate new residents during the in-person stage," noted Daniil Milyutin.

"Participating in the Alabuga BIM Championship is an invaluable experience, offering the opportunity to test your knowledge and skills under time constraints. It's especially gratifying to win for the second year in a row. The competition's updated project format allowed us to demonstrate not only our technical capabilities but also to showcase an example of a well-designed SEZ concept with compelling architectural and design solutions," commented Alexander Kolosov.
