Pre construction soil treatment implies laying down a chemical barrier to prevent termites from moving back and forth between wood and soil. Termites need wood for food and soil for moisture. So they constantly travel back and forth between wood and soil. Where this situation does not exist termites build 'shelter tubes' (mud tubes) to span foundation walls and other parts of the buildings that separate wood from soil. Beside building the tubes in over foundation walls, termites enter through expansion joint cracks, openings for utilities and service connections.
Execution & sequence of work:
Stage-1 - Plinth Treatment: Once the back filling is completed and prior to lay the levelling screed of ground floor slab, roding?? will be done along the edge of beams and on entire slab area at one meter centre. Then the dilute termiticide emulsion will be injected by means of pressure injection treatment.
In addition to the above treatment, blanket spraying will be carried out on the soil surface covered by the leveling screed of the ground slab.
Anti-termite treatment will not be done under base slab of sump, lift pit etc.; which are below the water- table.
Stage-2 - Barrier Treatment: Once the leveling is completed in the building area along the external wall for paving roding??? will be done along the foundation and dilute termiticide emulsion will be injected into the soil thus creating a chemical barrier along the exterior foundation.
Chemicals used: Dubai Municipality-approved chemicals will be used for termite control purposes. The treatment process will not cause any contamination to the ground water table and the surface water sources in and around the site. The termiticides used are agriculture-friendly chemicals and these will not have any adverse effect on existing and proposed flora and fauna in the park such as trees, plants and fish in ponds.
