E-Betoonelement has entered four buildings for the Concrete Building of the Year 2018 competition This year, E-Betoonelement entered four buildings for the Concrete Building of the Year 2018 competition: courthouse, T1 Mall of Tallinn, Estanc production facility, and apartment buildings at Sõjakooli St.
COURTHOUSE
Reason for submission: The courthouse built in the outskirts of the Tallinn city centre is architecturally very notable. The striking facade areas protrude in relation to each other both horizontally and vertically. The building houses three state authorities: Harju County Court, Northern District Prosecutor’s Office, and the Centre of Registers and Information Systems (RIK). All authorities are housed in different parts of the building, while architecturally forming a single unit. Designing the building proved to be a challenge, because the wishes of the three tenants as well as the different levels of security zones had to be taken into consideration. The construction process
T1 MALL OF TALLINN – Meelelahutus- ja kaubanduskeskus
Reason for submission: The project of T1 entertainment and shopping centre is interesting in terms of its solution, as it’s not a regular rectangular building but accommodates spacious and open atriums of different shapes, which in turn posed a challenge for the designers to come up with a solution for assemblies between prefabricated and monolithic elements. It was a very extensive project, which set higher expectations for both production and delivery schedules. T1 Mall of Tallinn entertainment and shopping centre is spread out on an area of approx. 55,000 m2 with space for more than 200 stores. The construction process was managed and administered using the BIM model.
ESTANC PRODUCTION FACILITY
Reason for submission: Healthy solution for a production facility where the architect’s vision to give a dignified exterior appearance to the building has been highly successful, and high-quality materials have been used in doing so. The production facility is also special because it has underfloor heating and enables lifting 100 tonne loads.
APARTMENT BUILDINGS AT SÕJAKOOLI ST
Reason for submission: Apartment buildings with a beautiful and individual architecture where utilities management has been planned around the residents. Utilities shafts in walls closest to the stairwell are double-walled – this blocks noise from reaching the apartments as much as possible and enables easier access to the utilities.
The winner of the Concrete Building of the Year 2018 competition will be revealed on the Concrete Day in March 2019. The main prize will be given to the author of the winning concept. The client who ordered the winning building, the designer, the builder, the supplier of formworks and the supplier of concrete will also be mentioned.

“Awesome!” goes everyone who has been on the spot, and seen the recently opened new generation shopping and entertainment center T1 Mall of Tallinn. The workers of E-Betoonelement’s factory in Tamsalu have a larger share of bragging rights. It was they who built the support structure of this modern four-storied building.
Tamsalu men and women are taken a part of building modern shopping centers before. In Tallinn, there´s no shopping centre, which frame isn´t made in Tamsalu.
Eesti suurim ehitusfirma Merko tellis just oma pikaajaliselt koostööpartnerilt E-Betoonelemendi Tamsalu tehasest betoonkarkassi. Tehase juhataja Marek Prees tunnistas, et 100 000 m2 müügipinnaga hoone toestiku tellimus on olnud suurim. “2015. aasta oktoobris alustasime ja 2017. oktoobris lõpetasime,” sõnas Prees kokkuvõtlikult.
Kaks aastat tehti, võiks öelda, lausa pulkhaaval iga päev palehigis tööd. Liivast, killustikust ja tsemendist miksitud betoon valati vineerist ja metallist vormidesse – just sellise kujuga mudelisse nagu tellija oli soovinud. “Isegi hoone trepikojad valatakse vormidesse,” märkis Prees.
2380 trucks took 53,000 m3 of concrete from Tamsalu to Tallinn, so the building could rise high.
Muljeid vägevast kaubandus- ja meelelahutuskeskusest Marek Prees veel jagada ei saa. Tehase juhataja tunnistas, et pole hooga tormaja, mistõttu pole veel T1Mall of Tallinnas käinud. Küll aga on ta oma töötajatelt kuulnud, et neil läks küll süda soojaks, kui nägid, et on hakkama saanud millegi nii võimsaga. “Tihti ongi nii, et alles kohapeal saad aru, kui suur see on,” nentis Prees.
Историю делали на заводе Тамсалу и раньше;
The workers had the honour to build the concrete elements of the War of Independence Victory Column, which is 143 meters high and made of glass panels.
.
Other West-Virumaa companies are also helping to make shopping centers all over Estonia. The "Supra Mööbel", operating in Sõmerul, produced wooden items for 20 benches at the Tartu Eeden Center.

AS E-Betoonelement and TTP AS have signed a cooperation agreement with the Järve Tower Complex, which includes the design, manufacture, supply and installation of high-rise buildings. High-rise buildings are being designed in cooperation with the sister company CES.
Project: Järve Towers
Address: Järve St 2, Tallinn
Customer: TTP AS
Architect: Martin Aunin
Services: element solution: design, manufacturing, transport and installation
Product nomenclature: hollow core slabs, poles, beams, stairs, balconies, interior and exterior wall elements
E-Betoonelement project manager: Toomas Böttcher
E-Betoonelement project manager Toomas Böttcher: "Järve towers are a very interesting project for the E-Betoonelement because two tall buildings are definitely challenging with their architecture, timetable and solution.
However, this project is once again a good example of long-term cooperation, as we have built several and several buildings with the TTP since the early 2000's. The facade of the buildings is made of a colorful surface, which, based on a light tone, leaves the result beautiful and bright. "
Herki Narusk, Construction Director of TTP AS: "Two ultramodern high-rise buildings that rise to the tidal zone of Tallinn are designed by one of Estonia's top modern engineers, Martin Aunin. The new slender and magnificent landmark is paved with a variety of glass surfaces and uninterrupted balks with a ribbon that dynamically moves to a height and opens up breathtaking views at every point of view. The towers of a high-tinted luminous shade are noticeable far.
The complex of apartment buildings with commercial premises of Järve towers includes two tower houses, a business and office block and an underground car park. The terraced parts of the tower buildings have 19 and 18 floors, the business and office block has 2 floors. There are two underground floors in the whole building complex. The office block can be connected via a walkway through the 2nd floor plan.
Collaboration with the E-Betoonelement is characterized by long-term experience and understanding of each other, where the focus is always a great end result, which means the interests of all parties. From the TTP's point of view, we like the designer to receive a complete solution for the structural part of the E-Betoone element, which includes design, assembly, transport and installation of elements. "
The lake towers are surrounded by vegetation, which harmonizes with Järve's park forest, where you can walk with your four-legged friend and engage in a health sport. The most up-to-date floor of the towers is a spacious penthouse-type apartment, as evidenced by an orchard in the apartment, with or without a roof window, the balcony overlooking the entire apartment, or both. The larger apartments have a utility room, several toilets and suites-bedrooms. Inside the finish, light, natural tones and high quality materials are used.
From the towers, there is a "highway" in each direction - the Ülemiste Airport, Tallinn Bus Station and the city center, which can be reached every 10 minutes, and the train stop will bring both Nõmme and Balti Jaama markets close to the market.
First of Järve towers will be completed in 2020.

Konkursi tingimused
E-Betoonelemendi seinaelemendid toodetakse Harku tehases, ettevõtte Tamsalu-tehases tehakse nii õõnes- kui ka eelpingepaneele. Mõlemas tehases on rõhk ohutusel ja efektiivsusel.
Mariliis Pinn,
Tamsalus valatakse vahelagesid, treppe, rõdusid, mis on eelpingestatud. Harkus toodetakse sise- ja välisseinu. Tamsalus tehakse eelpingetooteid, mida Harku tehase tehnoloogia ei võimalda.
Eelpingetoodete kandevõime on suurem.
Tamsalu tehase juhataja Marek Preesi sõnul on parim toode see, mis on korralikult planeeritud. Suur eelis on majasisene planeerimine. “Tootmisele on oma maja joonised paremad,” lisab ta ja kinnitab, et ka väljast tulnud jooniste järgi toodetakse paneele.
Praegu töös olev Pöörise elukvartali viies maja ehitatakse peaaegu sama projekti järgi kui eelnevad. Suur eelis on 3D-mudel. “Samas, tooted arenevad. Kolme esimese maja valamisega muutsime näiteks ühte rõdudetaili kolm korda,” ütleb Prees.
Tootmine on optimeeritud nii, et kõik detailid saab ühes jutis valmis valada, kuigi ehitusplatsile lähevad tooted nende monteerimise järjekorras.
Laoplatsilt tehasesse astudes jõuab nn viimistlusalasse. Harku tehase juhataja Priit Kärner näitab, kuidas tellisseina puhastatakse, ja selgitab, et detailid jõuavad objektile võimalikult valmis kujul. “Pöörise objekti puhul elemendid pestakse ja värvitakse,” täpsustab ta.
Üliolulised on täpsus ja ohutus E-Betoonelemendil on äpp, millega saab kohe tehasest toimuva üle anda. “Kui keegi näeb, et on mõni probleem, antakse kiirelt märku,” lisab Kärner. Alati saab tagasisidet, kui miski on hästi või vajab parandamist.
Kuigi tehases on kaheksa kraanat, selgus, et tegu on pudelikaelaga. Soojustuse, armatuuri ja muukergema materjali vedamiseks kasutusele võetud kärud aitasid selle mure likvideerida. Samuti optimeeriti isolatsioonimaterjali väljalõikamist nii, et nüüd teevad seda vaid kaks meest: üks ühes, teine teises vahetuses.
Igale valatavale tootele on tellija olemas. “Lattu midagi igaks juhuks ei toodeta,” kinnitab nii Kärner kui ka Prees. Paneelilt seerianumbrit vaadates teavad nad kohe, et tegu on Pöörise maja seitsmenda korruse välisseinaga.
Valulaual valatakse keerulisemaid objekte, betoon tihendatakse vibreerides. Kassetis valatakse seerias lihtsamaid ühekihilisi seinu, mis aitavad protsessi veelgi optimeerida.
Kassetis kasutatakse vaid isetihenduvat betooni. Kaks meest valavad viis-kuus elementi. Laual valavad kaks meest keskmiselt kolm elementi päevas.
ASi E-Betoonelement tehas on suur kui ballisaal. Kuna kogu tehase sisustus on liigutatav, ongi suuremateks tähtpäevadeks ruum omast käest võtta. Mullu ärkas ettevõtte 25. sünnipäevaks taas ellu džässiklubi Wool Moon, mille raames on Eestis 2000ndatel esinemas käinud sellised džässartistid nagu Randy Brecker, James Carter, Kurt Elling, Maceo Parker ja mitmed teised. Eelmisel suvel andis mõnusa kontsertela muse Prantsuse-Kameruni laulja Ann-Shirley.
Harku tehase 4500ruutmeetrine peosaaliks kohandatud tootmishoone muutus glamuursete tippdžässartistide esinemispaigaks, pakkudes rõõmsat klubimeeleolu ja küllaga emotsioone.
ASi E-Betoonelement asutasid Eesti Ehitus AS, OY Rudus AB ja SRV International OY1992. aastal. 2002. aastal sai ettevõtte 100% omanikuks Euroopa juhtivaid betoonelemendi tootjaid ühendav kontsern Consolis.
25 aastaga on oma toodanguga antud panus sadade hoonete ja rajatiste valmimisse, mille seas on näiteks Rocca al Mare kool, Luku-Experdi kontorihoone, TÜ Narva kolledž, Tondiraba jäähall, Maxima logistikakeskus, kaubandus- ja meelelahutuskeskus T1 jne.

AS E-Betoonelemendi töövõtt: elemendid ja transport (osaliselt paigaldus)
Project Manager: Toomas Böttcher
E-Betoonelement project manager Toomas Böttcher: „Nordeconiga koostöös on Kristiine City’sse valminud juba seitse elementelamut. 2014.-2016. aastal valmisid esimesed kolm korterelamut Marsi tänavale, mis olid Aasta betoonehitise nominendiks oma uudse kommunikatsioonišahtide lahenduskontseptsiooni poolest.
Alates 2016. aastast kuni tänaseni on Sõjakooli tänavale püstitatud neli elementelamut, millest viimane on hetkel lõpetamisel. Lisaks oleme sõlminud nendega koostöölepingu veel kolmele elementmajale Sammu tänaval, mis valmivad 2019. aastal.
Grey relief concrete with imitation joints has been used in the finish of all buildings, which provides beautiful and original appearance to the buildings.
Meie koostöö Nordeconiga on kestnud pikalt ja see on olnud rõõmustavalt tulemuslik. Tunneme teineteise tööstiili ja teame ootusi ning omavaheline kommunikatsioon on ladus. Projektides tuleb ikka ootamatusi ette, aga mõlemapoolse panuse, hea kommunikatsiooni ja hoolivusega oleme saavutanud alati sobiva lahenduse.“
Kristina Houses are well-planned functional buildings designed by Allianss Arhitektid. Homes with smart spatial plan, stylish design and modern appearance enable to enjoy greenery and privacy, while simultaneously a convenient transport connection is ensured with the city centre and other districts.
