DOHA BANK HEADQUARTERS WEST BAY

The Doha Bank Headquarter in West Bay has 3-levels of basement for car parking, and mechanical rooms. The building is a iconic landmark in the West Bay. The building has a close proximity to the sea( approx. 400 m). The basement of this building had severe leaks in the retaining walls in all levels. There were active leakages along the kicker joint at the raft level. Leaks through cracks on the walls in the mechanical rooms also posed an operational risk. These leakges were long standing and were initially attempted for repairs using injection systems. However, with frequent recurrence of the leaks the building administration adopted Xypex Crystalline Technology using Xypex Concentrate and Xypex Patch n Plug.

The joint treatment, and the cracks were repaired with DRY PAC system, and a final coating with Xypex Concentrate surface application was done for complete waterproofing of the retaining walls.

Total area is approx. 10000 m2.
