10th of Ramadan City is considered one of Egypt’s most prominent new industrial cities, currently witnessing a massive urban boom aimed at meeting the increasing demand for residential units. This boom is not merely about building walls and ceilings; it is a complex and integrated process that requires extensive experience, meticulous planning, and the use of the latest technologies and materials to ensure quality and safety.

Muhamed Harb General Contracting Company is a key partner in this developmental journey, offering integrated services in construction works and finishing, based on a proven track record of achievements in various residential and administrative projects.

Before laying the cornerstone, the journey of constructing any residential building begins with the planning and preliminary studies phase. This phase is the foundation that ensures the project’s success and avoids any future obstacles.

1. Feasibility Study: The real estate market in 10th of Ramadan is analyzed to determine the type of residential units required (apartments, duplexes, etc.) and their sizes, in addition to defining the project’s expected budget.
2. Architectural and Structural Designs: A team of architectural engineers develops the initial designs for the building, considering the Egyptian Building Code and the city’s engineering requirements. These designs are then converted into detailed structural drawings that specify the type of foundations, columns, beams, and ceilings.
3. Obtaining Licenses: This is one of the most significant challenges, as it requires a great deal of effort to secure all necessary approvals and licenses from the relevant governmental authorities in 10th of Ramadan City.

This phase is the backbone of the project, where the engineering drawings are turned into tangible reality. Here, the quality of materials and the technical skill of the workforce play a crucial role.

• Foundation Works: The phase begins with the construction of foundations, which may be strip, isolated, or raft foundations, depending on the soil type and the building’s anticipated load. Reinforced concrete is poured and prepared to support the entire weight of the building.
• Building Skeleton (The “Bones”): After the foundations, the pouring of columns, beams, and ceilings for each floor begins. High-quality reinforced concrete is used along with steel rebar that conforms to standard specifications. Specialized contracting companies like Muhamed Harb ensure the highest quality standards are applied in this phase to guarantee structural integrity.
• Masonry Works (Bricklaying): After the concrete skeleton is complete, the exterior and interior walls are built using bricks, while carefully adhering to the internal divisions as per the architectural design.

Finishing works are the final touch that transforms the concrete structure into residential units ready for occupancy. This phase requires high precision and attention to detail.

• Plaster and Gypsum Works: Walls and ceilings are covered with a layer of plaster to be ready for painting. Aesthetic touches can also be added using gypsum works on ceilings or walls.
• Electrical and Mechanical (Electromechanical Works): Electromechanical works are a vital part of any construction project. Electrical works include wiring, installing distribution panels, lighting, and sockets, while observing safety standards. As for mechanical works, they include plumbing systems (water and drainage lines), air conditioning systems, and fire-fighting systems. Muhamed Harb Company has a specialized division for electromechanical works to ensure these systems are implemented with the highest efficiency.
• Flooring and Painting: Floors (ceramic, porcelain, marble, or parquet) are installed according to the required finish. Afterwards, walls and ceilings are prepared for interior and exterior painting.
• Carpentry and Aluminum Works: Doors, windows, kitchens, and cabinets made of wood or aluminum are installed.
• Exterior Facades: The building’s facades are designed and executed using the latest materials and architectural styles to give the building a modern and aesthetic appearance.

Like any construction project, residential building construction works in 10th of Ramadan face multiple challenges:

• Fluctuating Material Prices: Fluctuations in the prices of steel, cement, and other basic materials can affect the project’s final cost.
• Adherence to Deadlines: The necessity of delivering the project on time requires strict management of resources and labor.
• Quality and Safety: Ensuring the quality of execution and adhering to professional safety standards to protect workers and the building.

Muhamed Harb General Contracting Company understands these challenges and works to provide integrated solutions that guarantee the highest levels of quality and efficiency.

1. Extensive Experience: A team of engineers and technicians with wide-ranging experience in all construction phases.
2. Material Quality: The use of the finest building materials from trusted suppliers to ensure the building’s durability and longevity.
3. Collaboration with Major Suppliers: Collaboration with leading global companies such as Grundfos for pump systems and Schneider Electric for electrical systems, which guarantees high efficiency and reliability for the building.
4. On-Time Delivery: A commitment to the project’s specified timeline to ensure customer satisfaction.
