Problems and their solution by Sunanda Global

Al Yaqoub Tower is a tall building in Dubai,

Al Yaqoub Tower is a tall building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The tower reached its peak in 2010 and was completed in 2013.

  • Problem: To avoid seepage from wet areas and make structures durable.
  • Application: Waterproofing by crystallization.
  • Conclusion: We have suggested waterproofing by crystallization. It is an economical waterproofing system in the form of dry powder. When applied it becomes an integral part of concrete, so cannot puncture or tear. The system is durable and lasts as long as the concrete.
