Cross Mark ABSTRACT Bacteriological examinations were carried on four types of water samples which collected from tap water, river Nile water, ground water and bottled water, at different cities in Dakahlia and Damietta Governorates, Egypt during 2017/2018 in order to determine the level and total count of bacterial isolates were present in our water collected samples . These bacterial groups were described as coliform bacteria, fecal coliform bacteria, and fecal streptococci, according to total bacterial counts methods. Generally,the highest number of total bacteria was found in Damietta, after that the number of total bacteria were presented in Sherbin. On the other hand, isolated bacteria were found to be lower counted than Mansoura water samples.

  • Enhancing Historic Metallic Bridges' Rehabilitation Policies in Egypt A. Alsadaty
    JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE, VOL. 67, NO. 1, FEB. 2020, PP. 119-138 FACULTY OF ENGINEERING, CAIRO UNIVERSITY ENHANCING HISTORIC METALLIC BRIDGES’ REHABILITATION POLICIES IN EGYPT A. ALSADATY1 ABSTRACT International trends towards historic metallic bridges are growingly shifted towards rehabilitation policies that go beyond the maintenance of their structural stability, to include promotion of their historic and engineering significance. As a major player in world‟s politics during the 19th century, Egypt possesses a significant legacy of historic metallic bridges across the Nile, mostly built by internationally renowned engineers and major firms in metallic bridges constructions. Through archival research, the present work highlights the significant asset of historic metallic bridges in Egypt, and through case study analysis, the study assesses current Egyptian rehabilitation policies in light of selected western attempts. Assessment is conducted to detect current shortcomings in historic metallic bridges local rehabilitation policies in Egypt, and hence propose a framework for enhancement and implementation. KEYWORDS: Historic metallic bridges, rehabilitation policies of historic metallic bridges, industrial heritage, 19th and 20th century bridges in Egypt. 1. INTRODUCTION The 19th Century boom of industrialization and railway mania left behind a significant number of metallic bridges in most major cities around the world. Today, these bridges represent a physical manifestation of the great engineering achievement of the industrial period. Accordingly, international trends towards these structures are shifting towards applying rehabilitation policies instead of demolition [1-5]. During the 19th and early 20th century, Egypt witnessed a boom in the construction of metallic bridges, most of which supported the expansion of railways across the Nile [6].
