Safeguarding a Pillar of Progress
The Perbadanan Kemajuan Pertanian Selangor (PKPS) building, Wisma PKPS, plays a vital role in advancing agriculture in Selangor. In 2019, Unity Repair undertook a crucial project to address cracks on the building's facade, specifically on the 11th, 10th, and 9th floors. This project ensured the structural integrity of the building and fostered a safe and healthy work environment for PKPS staff.
Dual Approach: Sealing and Protecting
Unity Repair addressed the facade cracks using a two-pronged approach:
Crack Repair with Extraseal 630
This specialized material effectively sealed the existing cracks, preventing further water ingress and potential structural issues.
Waterproofing Coating with Touchstone
A high-quality waterproofing coat was applied to the repaired surfaces, providing an additional layer of protection against water ingress.
From Leaky to Leak-Free: A Transformation Takes Shape
Prior to the project, Wisma PKPS suffered from:
Active Leaks
Leaks in walls, windows, and flat roof areas compromised the building's integrity and posed a safety hazard.
Potential Damage
Water ingress could lead to mold growth, damage to interior finishes, and potential structural issues.
Disruptions for Occupants
Leaks could disrupt daily operations and create an uncomfortable work environment.
The successful project completion delivered a revitalized Wisma PKPS:
Enhanced Building Integrity
Repaired cracks and a waterproof coating safeguard the building from water damage and potential structural problems.
Improved Safety for Occupants
Addressing leaks eliminates safety concerns and fosters a healthy work environment.
Preserved Functionality
A watertight building ensures the smooth operation of PKPS and its valuable services.
Safety First: Overcoming Gondola Challenges
Working on the building's facade at high elevations demanded meticulous safety protocols for the crew utilizing gondolas. Unity Repair's team likely employed stringent safety measures and procedures to ensure a safe working environment.
Sustainable Protection for Long-Term Functionality
The project's impact extends beyond immediate repairs, contributing to Wisma PKPS's long-term sustainability:
- Reduced Maintenance Needs: Proactive repairs minimize the need for extensive interventions in the future.
- Extended Building Lifespan: The project safeguards the building's structural integrity, ensuring its functionality for years to come.
- Improved Work Environment: A leak-free and safe building fosters a productive and healthy workspace for PKPS staff.
