CMR PERIMETER WALL REINFORCEMENT DESIGN

The purpose of this project is to procure comprehensive professional engineering services to conduct a comprehensive technical evaluation, stability analysis, and final design for a stabilization solution regarding the existing retaining wall structure located along the Carrera 4ta perimeter.

The subject wall exhibits signs of structural distress, including [mention specific symptoms if known, (e.g., lateral displacement, cracks, or bulging), which threaten the integrity of the Embassy’s perimeter security boundary. This project entails rigorous geotechnical and structural intervention, starting from subsurface investigation and ending with the delivery of an Issued-for-Construction (IFC) design package.

The project’s primary objective is to define a technically robust and long-term remediation solution that restores the wall’s structural stability, meets international seismic design standards, and ensures the continued security and protection of the compound. An existing gravity retaining wall constructed in stone masonry, with variable height between 2.8m and 3.5 m, is located along Carrera 4 adjacent to the CMR.
