UBC Campus Building Restoration
Project Overview:
The UBC Campus Building Restoration project addressed extensive water damage caused by accidental fire suppression flooding. This urgent restoration focused on returning 40 affected units to full functionality, with an emphasis on structural repairs, safety, and future water damage prevention. Restoration efforts included thorough drying, repair, and the implementation of preventive measures to maintain a comfortable and resilient environment.
Scope of Work:
Interior Restorations:
- Water Extraction and Drying:
Rapid water extraction and industrial drying processes were deployed to mitigate water-related deterioration and prevent mold growth across all units. - Structural Repairs:
Repair of walls, ceilings, and floors impacted by flooding, including drywall replacement, water-resistant treatments, and reinforcement to restore structural integrity. - Fixture and Equipment Assessment:
Assessment of impacted fixtures and equipment, with replacement or repairs conducted to ensure all units met safety and operational standards.
Sanitation and Mold Prevention:
- Mold Prevention and Remediation:
Comprehensive mold remediation was conducted to eliminate potential risks, with air quality testing following remediation to ensure occupant safety. - Sanitization of Flooded Areas:
Full sanitization protocols were applied to all affected surfaces, with special care for high-contact areas, to remove contaminants introduced by the flooding.
Preventive Measures:
- Waterproofing and Sealant Applications:
Reinforcement of waterproofing measures around windows, doors, and foundational elements to safeguard against future incidents. - Upgraded Drainage Solutions:
Enhancements to the drainage system were implemented to redirect water flow effectively, paired with new maintenance protocols to ensure long-term reliability.
Project Timeline:
The restoration of 40 units was efficiently completed within two weeks, underscoring a swift yet thorough approach to restoring habitability and safety.
Conclusion:
The UBC Campus Building Restoration project showcases a highly efficient response to fire suppression flooding. Through dedicated repair efforts and preventive upgrades, the project successfully restored functionality and strengthened resilience against future water-related emergencies.
