Building Remediation

Civil Structural Engineering

The 2017 Grenfell Tower fire tragedy serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for vigilant building safety standards. At AFEC International, we pledge to ensure that every structure stands as a testament to safety and security. As champions in the realm of building remediation, we have spearheaded initiatives to address and rectify fire-related cladding issues and a spectrum of significant structural vulnerabilities in high-rise apartment buildings and educational institutions across the UK and Ireland.

Our Approach

Our process initiates with an exhaustive fire risk audit. Here, our seasoned experts meticulously survey a building to uncover potential fire hazards. This evaluation extends beyond just external cladding. We delve deep into internal fire-stopping measures, scrutinize the efficacy of fire-resistant paints, and examine the robustness of emergency systems, including fire detection equipment.

Recognizing the intertwined nature of structural challenges, we synergize the prowess of our architectural unit with the expertise of our mechanical and electrical engineering teams. This holistic assembly is dedicated to designing remediation strategies, each meticulously tailored to neutralize every identified vulnerability in a building.

 

With the remediation blueprint ready, we take charge of the tender process. Our role here is to ensure that the enlisted contractors are fully equipped—in terms of skill and resources—to translate our designs into reality.

Our commitment continues into the execution phase. As the remediation work progresses on-site, our team is right there, supervising every step, ensuring each aspect aligns with our stringent safety standards.

Our assurance of safety is solidified with our final endorsement. It signifies that the building now stands fortified, resilient, and above all, secure for all its occupants.
