Laboratory and Technical Building

It was not possible to inspect the roof structure of the laboratory from the inside because of the ceiling but signs of stormwater infiltration was visible. With the images taken from the drone, it was possible to see that the lateral roof flashing is missing, and this causes the water ingress. This issue must be addressed by installing new roof flashing.

The waterproofing membrane on the slab of the technical building must be repaired. It is not sealed properly between the lateral wall and the roof structure of the next building allowing water ingress and causing infiltration marks on the walls.

It is important to address a situation of settlement happening in the building. There are cracks on the floors and large cracks along the walls on the ground floor. Specialized tests must be done to determine the extent of the damage and whether these cracks are propagating. This should be done as soon as possible.
