About This Project

Client: GT BANK

Project Duration: 30 May 2017 – 12 June 2017

Narration:
Engineering Safety Investigation conducted on the two (2) level bank building, sequel to an armed insurgency attack against it.

Report of the investigation concluded that:

  • The overall structural integrity of the building remains intact and has not been rendered unserviceable by reason of the explosions impacted upon it
  • But for the robustness of the engineering system of the building, the consequences of the explosion could have been far more disastrous
  • The structural elements identified in the distress map — Column at 5b/C, lip of pre-vault wall, opening in slab above the pre-vault door, spans 1 & 3 of Beam 13 — must be repaired
  • Large opening (resulting from poor compaction of concrete at the roof slab over the banking hall) must be hacked out and reworked
  • All ground floor walls identified in the distress map must be carefully dismantled and repaired
