Kyrgyzstan's Ministry of Construction has identified multiple violations at the site of a new fire station being built in the city of Kerben. Inspections revealed that the facility lacks proper measures for rainwater drainage, posing a risk to the foundation's integrity.
Further scrutiny uncovered issues with rebar connections, with some reinforced concrete elements not matching the project's design specifications. Deviations were also noted in the column reinforcement, and the construction process itself did not follow the correct technological sequence for building and installation work.
In response to these findings, the Ministry of Construction has issued a protocol against the responsible company, "Khamza Stroy KG" LLC. The firm has been fined 200,000 som (approximately $2,280 USD) and given a directive to immediately address and correct all identified violations.
