Building Condition Survey in UAE

Conduct a thorough and detailed dilapidation survey by means of 3D laser scanner for buildings to be repurposed. Dilapidation survey should be for all building and services components extending below and above false ceiling levels and foundations, but not be limited to, the assessment of foundations, walls, roofs, floors, and any other critical structural component. We provide technical feedback on the current structural integrity and condition of these buildings. The survey must include the as built material of the structures, e.g. concrete or block work building, etc. and detail the location for all utility incoming connection points to the building, the size of the supply, the isolation points within the building, routes and material. The survey shall highlight any existing materials or installations which does not comply with local Authorities’ requirements. 3D scanning survey scope includes providing point cloud (cleaned and stitched) in E57 or RCP, or other specified formats,3D BIM model LOD 300-350 and generate 2D floor plans, elevations, and sections.

Exterior scanning covers walls (As built material, detailed notes on any cracks, damp spots, or structural damage), roof (As built material and condition of roofing materials, gutters, and downpipes), Windows and Doors (As built material and any damage or misalignment) and identify any risk of asbestos the location and type to be specified. Interior scanning identifying issues of Rooms (Number of beds / occupants as built material and detailed description of condition of walls, ceilings, floors, and fixtures) and Structural Elements (Signs of movement or settlement).3D survey of Utilities & Building Services used ot find out Location, size, material and condition of incoming services, building services isolation points as well as condition of electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, and routes. Building life expectancy report with reference to the BIM model detailing the findings of the dilapidation survey, including technical details, structural integrity, and condition with photographic records of all observed conditions, with descriptions (as detailed above) and locations.

For non-intrusive dilapidation survey services for buildings that are being considered for future demolition, we are providing a survey of all building components and services and document the current condition without the need for any detailed analysis. The dilapidation survey details all utility connections to the building and location for all utility incoming connection points to the building, the size of the supply, the isolation points within the building, and material.3D scanning of building exterior covers walls (As built material notes on structural damage), Roof(As built material and general description of condition of roofing materials, gutters, and downpipes), Windows and Doors (As built material) and identify any risk of asbestos the location and type to be specified. Interior scanning covers rooms (Number of beds / occupants, as built material and general descriptions of the condition of walls, ceilings, floors, and fixtures as well as structural elements and utilities. Deliverables shall be digitally referenced and indexed interactive survey, content of demolition drawings/sketches with marked up drawings detailing the technical and condition findings of the dilapidation survey.
