Except Khrushchevki were never designed to be long-term solution. They were a stopgap measure and have in fact outlived their projected service time by decades

I agree, but that doesn’t dent the fact the millions still live in them to this day.

[-] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Does that support ComradeSalad's point? I.e. because if they were meant to last longer, they'd have been built differently?

[-] Shrike502@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Yes and no. They would have been built different, but not from wood. Don't have to go far for examples either: here's a house that was built to last in Stalin period. ComradeSalad does raise valid points regarding temperature jumps and the need for upkeep - but the latter is an issue with the economic mode, not the materials.

Besides, it's the XXI century. Surely we can build things with materials a tiny bit more advanced than basic concrete
