6 steps closer to finishing the construction works
Since the beginning of March, the finishing of the building started. The Nile Institute Rwanda is happy to provide another update with 6 major improvements up until August. This marks the 70% completion milestone of the total construction works. We are looking to finish funding for the exterior windows and door, ensuring a wind and watertight building. At that point, the laboratory equipment can already be made and installed.
1. Covers for drainage
The covers for the inspection pits of the drainage system – both rain and sanitary water – were cemented & placed.
2. Septic tank
To ensure a ‘swift passage’, a concrete septic tank was placed. Calculations prove it’s suitable for an equivalent of approx. 50 visitors.
3. Terrace wall
If only pictures could capture a feeling. The beautiful terrace wall was finished with utmost care & attention. I mean, look at the details!
4. Smoothing cement
Nothing is left untouched. Even the cement of the support beams & underside of the floating terrace is treated to bring out a smooth finish.
5. Entrance stairs
One of the main features of the building was placed in a handful of steps.
The entrance is constructed with rocks & a concrete slope. Almost ready to welcome some visitors.
6. Tiling walls & floors
Bring in the tiles! All in- & outside floors were carefully tiled, as well as the walls of the toilets, the lab shower and the kitchen. Ready for a game of checkers?
Enjoy the view
