KUALA LUMPUR: THE Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has instructed the developer of landslip-hit Bukit Setiawangsa to come up with a design for a new retaining wall soon as a possible long-term so-lution.

Mayor Datuk Ahmad Phe-sal Talib said the design should adhere to the 2010 Kuala Lumpur hillslope de-velopment regulations and the cost would be borne with the developer.

"The new retaining wall and slope will take into ac-count the soil investigation report, safety factor and buffer zone," he said after a meeting with the developer, Public Works Department and Public Works Institute of Malaysia (Ikram) at DBKL headquarters yesterday.

He said the short-term mitigation works, which started last week, would be completed by end of the month.

"After that, residents, who had to vacate their houses, will be allowed to go back,"

"City Hall will work with the police to list down the number of affected residents eligible to claim compensa-tion from the developer.

"Ahmad Phesal said from tomorrow, the monitoring of the site will be executed by the developer and its consultant."Ikram will cooperate with us while the developer will have to submit their soil in-vestigation readings to us," he said.

A task force, comprising of DBKL, Public Works De-partment, developer, Ikram and Mineral and Geo-Sci-ence Department has been set to oversee the Bukit Set-iawangsa slopes.

He said authorities have yet to decide on the fate of bungalows belonging to Rompin MP Datuk Seri Jamaludin Jarjis and Se-tiawangsa MP Datuk Seri Zulhasnan Rafique.

Sentul police chief ACP Zakaria Pagan said police are still manning the site to ensure safety and prevent thefts."We will be here until things are back to normal," he said.

DryJoistEZ Selected by Bally Services for Structural Capabilities and Sustainability

Gainesville, GA (PRWEB) January 08, 2013

DryJoistEZ, winner of Architect Magazines R+D award, is a structural deck drainage system that provides the structure of the deck, a waterproof solution and a finished ceiling with a traditional beadboard appearance, all in one. Cymek selected DryJoistEZ after successfully installing its sister product, DryJoist, on a similar renovation project in 2009. He liked that the aluminum structural spanning capabilities of DryJoistEZ would allow the decks to be extended without the additional cost of lightweight concrete or adding a substantial amount of framing to support the addition. Cymek was also impressed with the multiple benefits DryJoistEZ offered that other options lacked.

Having worked with DryJoist before, I felt confident that its sister product, DryJoistEZ, could meet the structural needs of the Ocean City condos while also reducing the cost, said Doug Cymek, Owner of Bally Services. As an added bonus, DryJoistEZ is made of aluminum and can sustain the elements long-term, with little maintenance, so I had the architect draw it into the plans.

Anytime a developer comes back to use our product on a second project, it is a testament to the hard work and effort we put into making our products the best in the market, said Jon Bailey, Vice President of Wahoo Decks. Oceanfront buildings are more susceptible to corrosion from salt, making DryJoistEZ a great all-in-one option because it wont rot or decay and can stand up to the elements over time.
