Location : Khartoum, Sudan

Al Nil Commercial Building

Completion Date: 2012
Application Type: External Waterproofing System
Project Overview

Al Nil Commercial Tower is a prominent office and commercial tower located in the heart of Khartoum, an area known for its high water-table levels. This presented a significant challenge for the basement structure, particularly in ensuring long-term protection against water infiltration.

To address this, a positive-side waterproofing system was applied to the below-ground levels. The solution included the installation of a double layer of bituminous membrane, followed by a protection layer, ensuring robust and durable waterproofing performance.

Project Volume
  • A landmark office tower comprising 15 upper floors, in addition to:
  • Basement levels for car parking
  • Ground floor
  • Double-storey mezzanine
Outcome
  • Reliable protection of all basement levels against groundwater ingress.
  • Long-term durability of the structure, ensuring safety and functionality.
  • A secure foundation for one of Khartoum’s key commercial landmarks.
