About the Project
The central point building is more than 100 years old and it is called ‘Old Sathosa Building’. Basically the structure of this building is steel and it is jacketed with concrete. The building is much closer and exposed for a long time to the sea therefore all steel beams and columns are corroded and deteriorated.

Main Activities
1. Sand blasting of all structural elements (beams, columns) and apply 3 coats of marine paints.
2. Welding of flange plates and web stiffeners to strengthen existing beams.
3. Removal of weakened slab panels and re concreting
4. Installation of New beams
