The Construction and Projects Department at the university continues the work on constructing an emergency staircase at the College of Applied Sciences, a critical project aimed at enhancing safety standards within the building. This project is part of ongoing efforts to improve the college's infrastructure and provide suitable emergency exits that help ensure the safety of students, faculty members, and staff.

The construction of the emergency staircase at the College of Applied Sciences boosts the college's ability to effectively handle emergencies, contributing to a safe educational environment that meets modern safety standards. This project represents a significant step in the university’s strategy to enhance the infrastructure of all its colleges and facilities.
The Construction and Projects Department is committed to ensuring that the emergency staircase at the College of Applied Sciences is completed with the highest quality and as soon as possible.

The University’s Construction and Projects Department has successfully constructed three emergency staircases in three colleges: the College of Control and Systems Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Electromechanical Engineering.

• The project aims to provide safe and quick evacuation routes in emergencies, enhancing safety levels within the colleges and protecting students, faculty members, and staff.
• This project responds to the requirements set by the Civil Defense Directorate, which emphasizes the importance of having appropriate emergency exits in academic buildings to ensure swift and safe evacuations.
• The project reflects the university's commitment to developing its infrastructure in line with safety and quality standards, thus improving the work and study environment on campus.

The implementation of these staircases in the three colleges strengthens the university's capabilities in managing crises and emergencies and represents an important step toward enhancing safety standards within educational institutions. It also contributes to creating a safe learning environment that meets all modern safety requirements.

The Construction and Projects Department continues its dedicated efforts to develop the university's facilities and improve its infrastructure following the highest global standards, ensuring a safe and sustainable educational environment that serves all members of the university community.

The President of the University of Technology, Prof. Dr. Ahmed Mohamed Hassan Al-Ghabban, paid an inspection visit to the rehabilitation work of the annex of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering. The visit was attended by the Head of the Construction and Projects Department, Dr. Uday Hamoudi Abdullah, the President of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Prof. Dr. Khaled Ajami Sukkar, several engineers from the Construction and Projects Department, in addition to several faculty members at the College of Chemical Engineering.

Objectives of the visit:
• The visit aimed to follow up on the progress of the ongoing rehabilitation work in the annex of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, such as the rehabilitation of bathrooms, the modernization of electrical systems, and the maintenance of public utilities.
• The visit focused on verifying the quality of the implemented works, and ensuring that they comply with the required standards and technical specifications, in order to achieve safety and quality requirements and enhance the infrastructure of the college.
• During the visit, they interacted with members of the teaching staff of the College of Chemical Engineering and listened to their suggestions and needs. The engineers of the Construction and Projects Department also gave a detailed explanation of the ongoing works and plans to complete the project.

This visit reflects the keenness of the university administration to closely follow up on the implementation of construction and development projects and to ensure the progress of work in line with the set goals. It also underscores the University's commitment to improving the learning environment by providing modern facilities that meet the needs of students and faculty.

The Department of Construction and Projects continues to implement a comprehensive rehabilitation project for the annex of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, to improve infrastructure and meet safety and quality requirements. The project includes several works aimed at modernizing facilities and creating an integrated and modern learning environment.

Details of rehabilitation work:
• The works include uprooting and replacing floors and walls with porcelain, as well as replacing Western and Eastern laundries and sanitary facilities.
• Replacement of secondary doors and ceilings to match modern design and sanitary standards.
• Lifting old windows and replacing them with new ones with modern specifications that provide good insulation and enhance natural lighting.
• Raising old floors and replacing the stairs with alabaster ones, while maintaining and painting the entrance walls.
• Implementation of gypsum board décor to give a modern character to the entrance.
• Raise the old dilapidated electrical network and replace it with a new one.
• Adding pullers, ceiling fans, and rocket pullers, and replacing old lighting with modern ones.
• Laying a tri cable in the corridors to feed electricity to laboratories and establish a main electricity room.
• Equipping laboratories with modern air conditioners to provide a comfortable environment for work and study.
• Implementation of aluminum partitions inside laboratories to divide spaces and facilitate the effective use of facilities.
• Treatment of sources of water leakage in the surface, where the water sources were coated with isocam to isolate them and ensure that moisture does not leak.
• Carrying out maintenance work for laboratory walls while treating existing defects and dyeing them to suit the modern appearance.
• Treatment of the outer walls of the corridors and the implementation of final painting work.

This project aims to improve the infrastructure of the annex building in the College of Chemical Engineering and to provide an advanced learning environment that contributes to improving the experience of students and faculty members. The various works that have been carried out aim to enhance the level of safety and comfort inside the building and ensure its readiness to meet the needs of the college and create an integrated learning environment.

The university's Construction and Projects Department has started the rehabilitation of the façade of the College of Materials Engineering, along with renovating several classrooms within the college. This initiative is part of a comprehensive plan aimed at improving the college's infrastructure and overall appearance.

Project Details:
• Façade Rehabilitation: The project involves renewing the façade of the College of Materials Engineering using high-quality modern materials. The aim is to enhance the exterior appearance of the building while ensuring its longevity. Aesthetic touches will also be added to align with the university's distinctive architectural style.
• Classroom Renovations: The work includes renovating several classrooms, improving lighting and ventilation systems, and upgrading flooring in some rooms. The goal is to provide a comfortable learning environment that enhances the student's educational experience.

The rehabilitation work is expected to continue until all classrooms and the façade are fully completed. This ensures an integrated learning environment that helps students and faculty members make the most of available resources.
