The Faculty of Civil Engineering got Laboratory unique in the region

The Faculty of Civil Engineering in Skopje today got new laboratory for testing hot conductance of building materials or materials that are insulating and sound conducting.


This government has invested around € 300,000, and the laboratory is given to the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Skopje to use, which has already started the procedure for accreditation and we expect to complete by the end of the year.

The Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski and the Minister for Education and Science Spiro Ristovski, today visited the lab, talked to faculty staff and observed the working conditions.

- Except for the purposes for students and scientific research, this lab will be used for commercial purposes and will bring income for the faculty and the university, while allowing the private sector to perform various accreditations of their products and to check their products. Whether it is about a manufacturer or for a construction company that purchases building insulation materials and wants to incorporate in their facility and thus wants to check the hot conductance and sound conductance of the insulating material, the Prime Minister said.



As informed by the management of the university, there is no such laboratory in the region, except one certain older version in Bulgaria, but rather older, with less performance from this new lab which the government procured.
