What Gsbk 1 Biuro Konstrukcyjne Sp Z O O does

GSBK Biuro Konstrukcyjne Sp Z O O is a privately held Polish structural engineering design office founded in 1990 by Professor Jan Grabacki of the Cracow University of Technology. Operating as part of a multi-entity group (including GSBK-1, GSBK-2, GSBK Dynamika for vibration protection, GSBK Inżynieria Bezpieczeństwa Pożarowego for fire safety engineering, and GSBK Manaka), the firm employs over 80 professionals across five Polish offices in Kraków (headquarters), Warsaw, Wrocław, Łańcut, and Muszyna. Its core offering is project-based structural design for buildings and infrastructure in reinforced concrete, steel, timber, and masonry, supplemented by vibration protection (GSBK Dynamika), fire safety engineering, geotechnics, expert opinions, and construction supervision.

The firm uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology on Autodesk Revit and Tekla Structures since 2011, developing proprietary coordination standards that enable collision-free multi-discipline collaboration on a single central model. Notable project credentials include the Łódź Fabryczna Station (440,000 m²), Krakow Music Centre (18,000 m²), the 5th Military Clinical Hospital in Kraków (27,100 m²), the Solid Municipal Waste Disposal Plant in Warsaw (48,400 m²), and railway infrastructure for the Łódź Junction and Centralny Port Komunikacyjny.

Revenue is generated through professional services engagements sold directly to architects, developers, municipalities, and industrial clients, with custom project-based pricing and multi-year contract cadences. Marketing is relationship-driven via a project portfolio website, LinkedIn, Facebook, and long-standing architectural firm partnerships (SUD Architekci Polska, BE DDJM Architekci, Ingarden & Evy Architekci). The customer mix is heavily weighted toward Polish public-sector infrastructure and municipal clients, with selective enterprise industrial work.
