Why You Need a Registered Engineer
Every Dubai authority — Dubai Municipality, DDA, and Trakhees CED — requires structural drawings and calculations to be prepared and signed by an engineer registered with that specific authority. Registration requirements and approved engineer lists differ by authority, so the engineer preparing your documents must be registered with the authority regulating your specific property.
