Bi-Weekly As-Salam Mosque Project Update – September 28, 2023
The foundation contractor has completed earth excavation. The next step is pile work, on which the Mosque floor will rest. Pile steel has been arriving on site for the last few days and pile cages are being made. Pile installation work will commence early next week In sha Allah.
IAOS has awarded a contract for civil works. This includes water, sewer and storm water lines and several other underground civil works components. This work is also going to commence in a few days In sha Allah. IAOS has also awarded the contract for the elevator, so as to incorporate elevator specifications at the design stage.
On the building design side of things, IAOS has received the final mechanical, structural and electrical drawings. IAOS is also applying to the City of Regina in a day or two, for building shell permit. These drawings have also been issued to potential contractors simultaneously to get quotations and start the process of selecting contractors for framing, electrical and mechanical work.
The Project Team is also working with the Architect to finalize interior design concept. These details will be finalized soon In sha Allah, and a presentation will be made to the Board for approval of interior design concept.
