Project Outline

Encompassing an area of 27.5 hectares, Kermanshah 4,920–unit Housing Project is one of the largest and fastest mass housing projects in Iran. The units are built with two bedrooms, in five-story apartment blocks, using Kayson’s “Cast–in–situ Monolithic Reinforced Concrete Construction System”; Better performance in facing natural disasters (especially earthquake), longer durability and high speed of construction are considered as advantages of this industrial system. The project utilizes 7 sets of wall formworks and 42 sets of ceiling formworks, enabling it to build the reinforced concrete structure of 28 housing units per day. In designing this township, construction and providing of all needed infrastructures and welfare facilities is considered.
