After more than five years of construction, the ** business district of Egypt's new administrative capital undertaken by Chinese enterprises has begun to take shape, which is not only a model of China-Egypt cooperation in building the "Belt and Road", but also a "new pyramid" in the mouth of the local people.
The local climate is hot and dry, with maximum temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius, and the building's curtain wall needs to have strong sun protection and high temperature resistance. Egypt's new administrative capital** business district consists of 20 individual high-rise buildings, with a total area of 780,000 square meters of curtain walls to be installed. The Chinese builders who came from afar used "Chinese wisdom" to solve many problems in construction, and used "Chinese speed" to help improve construction efficiency, and draped the curtain wall as a "sunscreen clothing" on every building. At the same time, through the "passing, helping and leading" of Chinese staff, about 200 local employees in the ** business district project of Egypt's new administrative capital not only participated in the construction of their country's new administrative capital, but also gained rich skills and experience.
It is expected that by March 2024, the curtain walls of the buildings of the new administrative capital ** business district project in Egypt will be fully installed. The "new pyramid" covered with "sun-protective clothing" will witness the steady and far-reaching cooperation and friendship between China and Egypt, as well as between China and Arab countries.
