Abstract
The main objectives and the expected performance of the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) tokamak machine are briefly summarized. The work carried out during the assembly phase of the FTU main components (toroidal magnet, poloidal field windings and vacuum chamber) and the major FTU subsystems (i.e. vacuum, cryogenic, power supply, radiofrequency and control system) is described. The commissioning work and the major engineering tests are briefly described, and the FTU cost and near-term program are outlined
