Abstract
The article describes the design features of the Ostankino TV tower in Moscow. The main results of the earlier works of the load-bearing reinforced concrete structures of the TV tower column and foundations are presented in the article. The authors examined the internal and external surfaces of reinforced concrete structures of the entire height of the tower with selective defectoscopy and determined the actual strength of concrete by non-destructive methods. The figures of this work show the main structural reinforced concrete elements and a distribution graph of strength characteristics of the height of the structure. Despite the noticeable height changes, the concrete strength in all parts exceeds the value provided for in the project.
