A detailed investigation was carried out on the atrium steelwork, soffits, and selected landscape areas at NYU Abu Dhabi. The assessment identified coating failure, failed sealants, cracks, efflorescence, localized corrosion, and water ingress at several locations. Testing included ultrasonic thickness (UT), UPV, DFT, coating pull-off testing, borescope inspection, and excavation trial pit investigation. The steelwork was generally found to be in good condition, but coating adhesion and waterproofing deficiencies required remedial work to restore protection and prevent further deterioration.
VCME completed a comprehensive leakage investigation and condition assessment across multiple basement parcels at King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The assessment covered Parcel 4.07/4.08, 2.05, 2.09, 4.03, 4.11, and 5.03 and combined visual inspections, field testing, water sampling, moisture analysis, chloride and sulfate testing, impact ehco/pulse velocity testing, and ground penetrating radar (GPR) measurements to evaluate water ingress and related deterioration.
This project was a Post Tension Impregnation (PTI) trial at Dubai Wharf. The scope focused on two selected post-tension tendons in slab B2, including mobilization, GPR tendon location, IE/PV, borescope inspection, port installation, air leak testing, impregnation works, cleanup, and reporting.
The project involved a comprehensive condition assessment of the marine infrastructure across several key Dubai Marina locations, including Dubai Marina Yacht Club, East Marina, West Bay Marina, and Dubai Marina Mall. The assessment covered the concrete pontoons, wooden pontoon elements, and steel piles supporting the berthing and floating systems. The inspection was undertaken to evaluate the extent of deterioration caused by the harsh marine environment and to define suitable rehabilitation measures.
This project involved a corrosion and leakage condition assessment for Azure Tower (B3 + G + 29) on Reem Island, Abu Dhabi. The scope focused on Basement B3, where VCMES carried out visual inspection and NDT to evaluate leakage, corrosion risk, and concrete durability, and to define remedial recommendations.
This project involved a detailed condition assessment and corrosion investigation of the waterslide support columns and support assemblies at Atlantis Aquaventure’s waterpark, Dubai. The scope included review of documentation, visual inspection, DFT testing (dry film testing), holiday testing, coating pull-off testing, borescope inspection of internal galvanized surfaces, and laboratory analysis of debris, deposits, and waterslide water samples.
Vector Corrosion provided a tailored cathodic protection solution for the historic Al Ain Museum in the UAE, using Galvashield® XPT and Fusion T2X-HV anodes to mitigate reinforcement corrosion associated with chloride contamination and carbonation. The system incorporates long-term monitoring to assess performance and support the durability of the rehabilitation works.
