The Rashid Engineering office was
established by Dr. Nasser Al-Rashid on 26/4/1393 (Hijri),
which corresponds to 29/5/1973 (Gregorian), to provide
architectural and engineering design, surveying ,and project
management services.
The office employs a highly qualified
team of local and multinational engineers who have
extensive experience in their respective disciplines,
including architectural, civil, structural, electrical,
and mechanical engineering. In line with the national
policy towards Saudization, the office was able to
increase the employment of Saudi nationals by up to
about 22%. In its business practice, the office builds
on the Islamic culture by taking into account the
authentic Saudi traditions and customs, and by using the
most-up-to-date technologies and keeping abreast with
overall developments taking place in the Kingdom, at all
levels, and effectively contributing to the development
of modern architectural buildings.
The first project which was designed and
supervised by the office was Al-Khalidiah building at
Khazzan Street in Riyadh, which belongs to the sons of the
late King Khalid, and the first government project was the
Al-Massara Hotel at Taif, which was fast-tracked and
constructed within a record time of eight months, pursuant
to the order of the late King Khalid.
Many
important projects were designed and supervised by the
office including: Royal courts and palaces, guest
houses, conference halls, government buildings,
hospitals, hotels and housing compounds all over the
Kingdom. Many highways, bridges, and mountainous tunnels
were also designed and supervised by the office
throughout the Kingdom
