The new OTRC building faces<br />
Academician Korolev Avenue. Its first<br />
five floors are occupied by services<br />
for film production, television and<br />
radio broadcasting. Two upper floors<br />
house equipment. A conference room<br />
with 150 seats, utility and service<br />
rooms are located in the basement. A<br />
three-storey annex adjoins the main<br />
OTRC building. It contains a cafeteria<br />
and a bar for personnel.<br />
The OTRC building was the first of<br />
its kind to be erected from precast<br />
elements. Industrialised erection<br />
techniques made it possible to complete<br />
the construction in a very short<br />
time.<br />
The new broadcasting centre had<br />
a trial run as early as the VII USSR<br />
Summer Spartakiade.<br />
High-quality Soviet-made materials<br />
were used to finish the working rooms<br />
and studios of the centre. Most comfortable<br />
conditions were created in all<br />
rooms for the personnel. Soundproof<br />
and sound-absorbing walls<br />
meet the most rigorous specifications.<br />
The power supply for the OTRC is<br />
guaranteed by four independent<br />
power sources. Power stabilisers en-<br />
126<br />
sure reliable operation of the equipment.<br />
The building is equipped<br />
with powerful air-conditioning units<br />
and gaseous-agent fire-extinguishing<br />
plants.<br />
The personnel and matériel are<br />
transported between floors by seven<br />
freight and ten passenger lifts.<br />
The OSC is shaped as a 14-storey<br />
tower 62 metres tall. Aerials put up on<br />
the roof received television and radio<br />
signals fed over 50 relay circuits<br />
by transmitters installed at the<br />
Olympic venues and by mobile stations.<br />
The tower contains switching<br />
equipment that links together all the<br />
television and radio broadcasting networks<br />
of Moscow.<br />
The OSC building was erected<br />
from large precast concrete blocks.<br />
Like the OTRC, it provides comfortable<br />
working conditions for the personnel.<br />
The OTRC and OSC buildings were<br />
designed by Workshop 14 of the Mosproekt-1<br />
Department in cooperation<br />
with specialised design offices of appropriate<br />
ministries and government<br />
agencies.<br />
