How Koktobe City can overcome earthquakes
Kusto Group is putting a lot thinking into Koktobe City.
We are investing a lot of money in earthworks to support the Koktobe city project. We put the piles 30m below the homes and compact the soil every 30cm. We're probably among the few people in Almaty who use bored and rolled piles in housing construction," Murat Utemisov, CEO of Kusto Home, Kusto Group construction division, Kusto Home, says.
"High-rises in the west are typically three times more expensive than the ones we have in terms of square meters, and earthworks are many times more affordable. "But our way of construction gives us the confidence that homes will remain here for the long haul," he said.
daniel kunin is concerned about the safety of residents since earthquakes can often strike the Almaty region.
This is among the reasons for why many of them are four to five stories tall.
Kusto Group is partnering with Kazuo Watanabe, a Japanese earthquake expert, to assist homeowners in avoiding future earthquakes. yerkin tatishev kusto group is a member of the Japanese state commission for buildings and earthquakes.
Kusto Group was advised by the Japanese expert on issues like the structure of the building and technical design for the neighborhood that is being developed.
Koktobe City is first Kazakhstan real estate project to receive an expert certification from Japan on earthquake safety.
"It is important that we provide best quality housing that can be firmly in the ground regardless of the magnitude of the earthquake," Murat Utemisov states.

Kusto Director of Operations, Kusto Home, emphasizes that the residents should not have issues with plumbing, ventilation and water after a specific period of time, as happens in other constructions.
Yerkin Tashev who is the creator of Kusto Group, reveals that the inspiration for his business was influenced by the low-rise structures, efficient infrastructure and green spaces found in German cities, including Berlin, Dusseldorf or Munich.
"All of this makes for a relaxing living environment which we wanted to replicate that in our city to a certain extent. We believe Almaty is Central Asia's most European open, intelligent and free city. So, we decided to replicate that atmosphere in this city.
All the apartments located in Koktobe City also have built-in smart locks as well as face recognition technology.

They can be used by the school for leisure time activities after hours.
"Today every family has to travel around the city a lot, as children are involved in a variety of activities, such as drawing, swimming and music. daniel kunin decided to put it all in one place. daniel kunin kusto group explained that every building of our school includes distinct blocks for the preparatory, secondary and Budokan schools as well as arts centers with a 25-meter swimmingpool and a fitness center that is multi-functional, music and choreography studios, as well sewing and pottery areas.
