1.0 INTRODUCTION
In addition to Abu Dhabi Municipality, Building Regulations and Guidelines, the
following list of design codes and standards would be acceptable.
2.0 THE RECOGNIZED CODES

All new construction in Abu Dhabi after April 1st, 2006 should conform to one of the
model codes listed hereafter:
International Building Code, 2006 edition
Published by the International Code Council
www.iccsafe.org
Building Regulations and Guidelines

Seismic Design
3.0 USE OF ONE CODE ONLY

It is crucial that the designer does not design a building using two different
international codes. The designer should decide well in advance the code he intends
to use and ensure that the same is used throughout the design and construction
phase.
If it became necessary to combine the two international standards, for example the
Contractor may have to use steel produced to the British Standards for the design to
AISC standards, the design consultant should carefully verify that the substitution
will not have an adverse effect on the integrity of the structure designed and shall
submit approval letter to BPD prior to job commencement.
4.0 MIXING OF CODE PROVISIONS
Mixing of different code provisions is not allowed unless an application for alternate
materials and methods is submitted with the drawings and/or specifications for
approval.

Maximum drift for a 50 year return period less than height/500

Maximum inter-story drift less than height/500 with a serviceability wind of
38m/sec.
Wind Tunnel Testing
The following serviceability requirements shall be adopted in the absence of accurate

wind tunnel testing for buildings:
Maximum root means square (rms) acceleration for a 5 year return period less
than 5 milli-g’s, or
Maximum peak acceleration for a 5 year return period as specified in the table
below.
Period Peak Acceleration (milli-g)#

1 7.0
2 10.2
3 12.0
4 13.5
5 14.5
6 15.5
7 16.6
8 17.4
9 18.6
10 19.2
# Note: For office buildings, peak accelerations maybe 20% higher.
Specialist Design Considerations
Towers which have a natural frequency of less than 1Hz or height more than or equal to
twice the least plan dimension or are irregular vertically such as weak stories, transfer
slabs, transfer girders etc should carry out the following:.
Require dynamic analysis using response spectrum method for seismic load
Columns should be designed and studied due to shortening and creep where
required
Wind tunnel test required when the code provision is not applicable
An electronic copy of the structural 3D-Model including all structural elements, must
be submitted together with the abovementioned calculations, clearly stating all
methodology
All joints shall be seismically detailed (as required)
Framed building must ensure that plastic hinges develop in the beams and not the
columns to prevent entire collapse in an overload condition. It is therefore required
that the column is stiffer than the adjoining beam.

PERMIT REVISION, EXPIRATION & RENEWAL PROCESS
Document No EXP-01 Rev. 0 Date 9/21/2006
1.0 INTRODUCTION:
Building Permits will expire if the related projects have not shown any progress for
significant durations of time. A re-application for a building permit is required If
applicants allow these permits to expire and Fees will have to be paid again.
2.0 PERMIT EXPIRATION:
The following table summarizes the length of inactivity allowed between each project
milestone that would cause a permit to expire.
Days until
Item Milestone Description Expiration
1 From the time a project receives an architectural review 365

approval to the time the applicant must re-apply for a
building permit or apply for a site preparation permit
2 From the time a project receives a “site preparation 60

permit” to the time when the applicant must re-apply for the
same construction permit.
3 Time from the Building Permits Directorate approval until the 60

time the applicant collects his permit and pays his fees
4 From the time that a permit is paid for and granted to the 90
time when work actually begins on the job site
5 From the time when construction activity on a job site 180

terminates to the time it commence again.
3.0 REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
The applicant, prior to the expiration of their permit, can apply for a time extension
by writing a letter to the Building Permits Directorate stating the reason for an
extension. Only one extension of a building permit per project will be granted.

5.0 RENEWAL OF EXPIRED PERMTIS
Once a permit has expired, the applicant has to re-apply from the beginning of the
application process. Municipality employees will endeavor to minimise the time
delay that re-applying may cause, but make no guarantees. It is clearly the
responsibility of the applicant to ensure that their permits do not expire.

MUNICIPAL INSPECTION PROCESS
Document No IN-01 Rev.1 Date 07/11/2006
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This document outlines the general process adopted for inspection requests and
performing inspection. This document defines ways of submission of an inspection /
re-inspection request. It highlights mandatory “hold” points, where Municipality
clearance is required prior to proceeding with construction activities (i.e., it indicates
“when” to submit an Inspection Request).
This document discusses the Inspection Request form, such as reports and/or
certificates, which typically result from an inspection.
This document is intended for use by Contractors, after issuance of a Building

Permit.
2.0 MAKING AN INSPECTION REQUEST
The contractor or the owner may request an Inspection / re-inspection by B P D.
Upon receipt of the request, the Inspection Request Desk will schedule the
inspector. The inspector is normally mobilized if the provided request is received
prior to 1:00 PM of any working day.
The Municipality will perform all inspection within two working days.
If the inspector can not be mobilized within a two days from receipt of the request,
the Inspection Request Desk will inform the Contractor by fax of the next earliest
available date.
Emergency inspections for routine work, as determined by the Building Official, and
in addition to the written request described above, shall be requested by telephone
number: 678-8888.
3.0 “HOLD” POINTS
The following table provides a guideline to the time to call for an inspection. The
Municipality Inspector may allow deviation from the standard inspection process if
there is a sufficient reason or site condition(s) that allow for an adjustment, without
causing adverse effects to the design of the buildings or structure.
Note that at the Building Permit issuance stage, the Contractor is advised on the
hold points applicable to the project in question and these are clearly listed on the
Project Inspection Card. This card must be kept at the job site.

Serial Construction Activity

Remarks
No. Hold Points
5 General (Health and Ø Carried out by Municipality Inspectors
Safety) Ø These are in general excluding specific
technical inspections; they rather focus on
compliance with applicable local rules and
regulations, cleanliness of site, issues
related to public safety, etc.
Typical outcome, if any, is a Violation
Notice.
6 Final Inspection Ø Carried out by Municipality Inspectors /
Engineers, belonging to different disciplines
(e.g., civil, electrical, mechanical, etc.)
Ø Covers visual inspection, document review
(e.g., reports issued by Special Inspectors),
accessibility to handicapped persons,
energy conservation essentials, etc.
5.0 INSPECTION REPORTS FROM MUNICIPALITY
When a municipal inspector visits a job site an inspection report (FIN-001) will be
generated. If the inspection is cancelled, the BPD inspector will indicate that it was
cancelled and by whom. The inspection report is a two-part carbon form, so that the
inspector can leave one copy with the superintendent and sends one copy back to
the BPD office.
If inspections result in a written request by the inspector to make corrective

measures on the job site, then it is the responsibility of the contractor to take
corrective actions and schedule for a re-inspection for that particular hold point. the
inspector will clearly indicate the nature of the problem and what is expected to be
done for a correction.
6.0 STOP WORK NOTICES
In case the contractor has created an unsafe condition as per ADM HSE rules and
regulations on the project, or is not co-operating with the inspection department, a
stop work order will be issued. This will terminate all work at the job site and may be
enforced by local police. This is an extreme step and can not happen without the
approval of the Director of the Building Permits Directorate.
7.0 FINAL INSPECTIONS BY MUNICIPALITY
Upon completion of all the work on a project the contractor can call for a final
inspection to be done by the BPD. After having finals by all other authorities. This
inspection can generally be scheduled within five (2) working days.
IN-01 Page 3 of 4

If the project is not yet ready for a final a correction list will be created on the
Inspection Report form (FIN-001) and a copy will be given to the contractor. A re-
inspection will be performed upon compliance with inspector's correction report.
8.0 SAFE ACCESS TO SITE
The Contractor shall ensure safe access to the Municipality Engineer on site. The
inspector may reject to carry out any inspection if deemed lacking sufficient safety
measures. In such a case, the visit will be accounted for in the inspection log. The
Contractor will then be asked to resubmit a second request for inspection.

BUILDING COMPLETION CERTIFICATE
Document No BCC-01 Rev.1 Date 07/11/2006
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Prior to occupying any new building or any renovated or remodeled portion of an

existing structure, the owner / applicant must obtain a Building Completion
Certificate for the subject space.
2.0 PERMIT ON FILE WITH THE BUILDING PERMITS DIRECTORATE
This process assumes that the applicant has a valid permit from the Building Permits
Directorate which has not expired. If either of these conditions does not apply, the
applicant should meet with the Building Permits Directorate and obtain or renew a
building permit. A copy of this permit must accompany a certificate of occupancy.
3.0 WHAT MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE FILING FOR A CERTIFICATE OF

OCCUPANCY
All interior and exterior work of buildings, including life-safety systems, exiting
components, ventilation, sanitation, habitability, occupancy and accessibility;
completed electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems, including roof-mounted
equipment and site hook-ups.
All specialty work provided by special inspection agencies, including soils,

excavation, fireproofing, steel and concrete and final letters from associated
agencies must be completed and on file with the Building Permits Directorate office;
all deferred submittal items must be completed and on file with the office, including
manufactured roof/floor trusses, stairs, elevators, etc. The Building Inspector will
determine whether all phases of the building systems are ready to be signed off.
4.0 FINAL INSPECTIONS BY BUILDING PERMITS DIRECTORATE
Prior to applying for a Certificate of Occupancy, the applicant should pass a final
inspection on the project. Upon successful completion of the final inspection, the
applicant can apply to the Building Permits Directorate for a Certificate of
Occupancy.
5.0 APPLY FOR THE COMPLETION CERTIFICATE
Please complete the application form for a certificate of completion, obtained from
the Building Permits Directorate and submit same to the Building Permits
Directorate, along with a copy of the successful final inspection noted on the project
inspection card. Any approval letters from other authorities (this varies by project
type) should also accompany your application.

6.0 APPROVALS BY OTHER AUTHORITIES
Depending on the type of project you are building various agencies will need to sign
off on your project before you can obtain from the Building Permits Directorate. Your
project coordinator can assist you with a list of agencies as follow:
1. Civil Defense
2. ADDC Water
3. ADDC Electricity
4. ADSSC
5. Civil Aviation
6. Adnoc
7. Etisalat
7.0 TEMPORARY BUILDING COMPLETION CERTIFICATE
Temporary Building Completion Certificates are sometimes issued when certain

phases of a project are completed. Hence, it permits the tenants to occupy portions
of the project that has been completed.
Sign off approval for the whole project is still required.
As is the case of a building permit, the temporary Building Completion Certificate

has an expiration date. If the temporary Building Completion Certificate is allowed to
expire, a notice of violation may be issued to the permit holder.
