Academic Staff of Department of Civil Engineering Visits “The Residencies – Kohuwala” Project
The academic staff of the Department of Civil Engineering recently conducted a site visit to “The Residencies – Kohuwala” project, developed by the International Construction Consortium (Pvt) Ltd (ICC). Organized as part of the department’s ongoing initiative to strengthen industry-academia collaborations, the visit aimed to expose faculty members to cutting-edge advancements in modern construction.
State-of-the-art Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) technique is utilized for this construction. During the visit, the staff gained firsthand insights into PPVC technique used for multi-story Construction. Experiencing these high-tech methodologies sequentially enhances the practical knowledge of the academics of the department, directly enriching the classroom knowledge transfer to engineering students.
The Department extends its sincere gratitude to the management of ICC for facilitating this invaluable experience, with special thanks to Eng. E.A.B. Edirisooriya (Deputy General Manager – Designs) for his coordination and support.
