The inauguration ceremony was held at the premises of the new social housing project in 6th of October City, south-west of Cairo.
The event was attended by Prime Minister Sherif Ismail, Minister of Defence Sedky Sobhy, former prime minister Ibrahim Mehleb, and many top army and state officials.
Al-Sisi attended presentations about the new projects; he also instructed officials to begin work on these projects.
He addressed head of the Armed Forces Engineering Corps Kamel Al-Wazeer, instructing him to speed up the repair of a runway at Cairo International Airport.
The president also commented on a crack that had appeared on a newly constructed bridge in Sohag governorate last week, asserting that "mistakes are not allowed" in such projects.
He instructed that the damages to the bridge be repaired within four weeks.
