load-bearing walls was missing for buildings with such structural scheme and

provided the construction of just one wall.
The specialists of GEOTECH have made a series of calculations for the whole

calculations we have proposed technical solutions for structures and
foundations ensure the strength and reliability of a building with only one
longitudinal load-bearing wall.
