International Exhibition of Modern Buildings: Innovations on Display

news-detail

 

The Smart City is a project born from an innovative idea initiated by students aged between 9 and 11 from the association “Jil Technologie” of Constantine, which consists in digitalizing the way of life of its inhabitants with remote management, solar energy distribution systems and evacuation and purification of rainwater and wastewater systems, said to APS news agency, the president of this association, Dr. Meriem Serarna. The project, which is being exhibited at Builtec fair in the presence of local authorities and construction companies, exploits the city’s wastewater for irrigation and industrial needs through an underground network that redirects the amounts of water collected to a treatment plant, in addition to automating the solar energy distribution system to achieve autonomy in the availability of electricity, Serarna said.

On the other hand, the mortar for the restoration of historical and archeological sites and the old buildings are 100% Algerian products manufactured by the company Silex with a view to restoring and safeguarding the architectural heritage of the various regions of the country, including those of the wilaya of Constantine, said the representative of this company.

This mortar is a restoring element composed of sand, special cements, fibers and additives, built with the aim of restoring and protecting concrete and rigid materials structures and making the capping homogeneous, but also strengthening the strength of the damaged structure.

Other products on display include “smart home” technology products and remote facility management products, in addition to innovative materials for modern buildings and the promotion of the future of the building sector. As part of the exhibition, which is due to close on Thursday, students from the architecture department of the University of Setif had a field trip to visit the historic monuments of the wilaya of Constantine, organized by the “Architecture, City and Heritage Foundation” and Mediasmart company
