Does Concordia Need Structural Calculations?

Yes, when the structure or loads change: slab openings, core drilling, mezzanines, wall removal, heavy equipment, glass partitions fixed to the slab or signage. We prepare stamped structural calculations for the submission.

Does Concordia Need Structural Calculations? FAQs

Does Concordia need calculations?

Yes, when structure or loads change.

Who approves fit-outs in JLT?

The building management NOC comes first, then DMCC fit-out approval reviewed through Concordia, DCD approval for fire safety, and the Concordia COC after inspection.

What is Concordia?

Concordia is the building and facilities management for JLT towers, appointed by DMCC. It reviews fit-out drawings, inspects the works and issues the Certificate of Completion (COC).

Where do I get existing drawings for my unit?

From the building management or DMCC. If the unit was changed since, we survey it and update the as-built drawings.

Do I need a COC after a fit-out?

Yes. Concordia inspects the works and issues the COC when they match the approved drawings.
