The Director General of Housing, accompanied by the Director General of the National Agency for Technical Control of Construction, conducted a working visit to the province of Tiaret to follow up on the status of housing units where damage and cracks were recorded on the facades due to natural factors. This visit was carried out in implementation of instructions from the Minister of Housing, Urban Planning, and the City.
The visit began with a working session chaired by the Wali of the province, attended by various stakeholders, including directors and representatives of the National Housing and Construction Laboratory and engineering consultancy firms.
