§ In the Institute for Material Testing of Serbia in Belgrade, the system of industrial construction of buildings using prestressed concrete under the name IMS-Zezelj started to develop in 1957. The author is Prof. Branko Zezelj. The system was conceived as an open system of structural elements by which, honoring minimum rules, many buildings can be composed of different sizes, heights and purposes. Nowadays the system IMS is used for construction of residential and office buildings, schools, hospitals, hotels as well as of commercial buildings, light industry workshops 
and sports structures. The height of the buildings ranges from groundfloor plus one floor up to groundfloor plus twenty nine floors.

§ IMS is a skeleton system in prestressed concrete with stiff walls to achieve rigidity. The basic elements of the system are: reinforced concrete pillars, coffer, cantilever floors, edge girders, staircases and stiff walls. The facade and partition walls in IMS system differ very much. Besides the panels of uniform design given in the catalogue, many other different facade and partition 
walls are used. They are designed and built by contractors themselves depending on the local conditions and their respective possibilities.
