Applus+ in the UAE is proud to work with the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority on the Al Fahidi Fort, preserving the historical landmark and connecting past and future generations.
Al Fahidi Fort, a significant part of Dubai's cultural history, symbolizes resilience and transformation. Built in the late 1700s, this structure—now home to the Dubai Museum—offers insight into the emirate's historical and cultural development.
Applus+ has been engaged in a detailed rehabilitation initiative for Al Fahidi Fort. This includes conducting comprehensive condition surveys, performing historical analyses, and formulating restoration strategies to protect the fort’s structural and historical integrity. These measures aim to address preservation challenges while maintaining the site's authenticity.
A key aspect of the project involves deploying instrumentation and monitoring systems. Advanced technologies, such as vibration monitoring sensors, laser scanning, and environmental data logging tools, are being used to assess the fort's condition continuously. These tools enable proactive risk identification and informed decision-making, ensuring the restoration process meets the highest standards of precision and sustainability.
Collaboration with the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority has been fundamental to this project's progress. This partnership ensures that every rehabilitation stage adheres to established cultural and historical preservation practices while meeting contemporary conservation requirements.
Situated amidst Dubai's modern urban landscape, Al Fahidi Fort is a historical touchstone with its coral-stone walls and traditional wind towers. Applus+ contributes to preserving these features to safeguard the fort's historical significance and structural integrity.
This project reflects Applus+'s broader commitment to heritage preservation and technical excellence. By combining expertise in advanced conservation methods with respect for cultural heritage, we strive to protect landmarks like Al Fahidi Fort for future generations to appreciate.
