Mission-Critical Construction Translation & Technical Compliance
Protect your project’s timeline and safety records with zero-error technical translation. From CAD/BIM annotations to FIDIC contracts, we provide the linguistic precision required by the Middle East’s most ambitious infrastructure projects.
Critical Importance of Construction Translation
In high-stakes construction, a mistranslated specification is a structural liability. Whether it’s an engineering calculation or an HSE protocol, linguistic ambiguity triggers costly rework, safety breaches, and legal exposure. Tarjim provides Engineering-Grade Translation that serves as an insurance policy for your project. We ensure 100% technical and regulatory alignment, protecting your timeline, your budget, and your workforce from the risks of miscommunication.

FAQ'S
1. How do you ensure technical accuracy in engineering specs and blueprints?
We don’t use generalists. Our construction desk is staffed by linguists with Engineering and Technical backgrounds. We maintain rigorous Project Glossaries for MEP, structural, and civil engineering terms to ensure that a specification in your tender matches the reality on the job site. We understand that in engineering, there is no “close enough”—there is only “correct.”
2. Can you translate directly within AutoCAD or BIM software?
Yes. We eliminate the manual error risk of “copy-pasting” technical data. Our team can work directly with AutoCAD annotations, Revit models, and BIM collaboration workflows. We localize the callouts, legends, and layers while preserving the file’s technical integrity, ensuring your onsite teams have ready-to-use translated drawings.
3. Do you provide certified translations for Dubai Municipality and Saudi Building Code (SBC) submittals?
Absolutely. We are experts in Regional Regulatory Compliance. We ensure that your permit applications, environmental impact studies, and fire safety plans meet the exact linguistic and technical requirements of local authorities such as Dubai Municipality, Abu Dhabi Building Codes, and the KSA Ministry of Housing, fast-tracking your approval process.
4. How do you handle HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) documentation?
Safety is a zero-tolerance zone. We translate HSE manuals, Risk Assessments, and Method Statements into the native languages of your multinational workforce. We focus on clear, directive language to ensure that safety protocols are understood by every laborer on site, significantly reducing the risk of accidents and the resulting legal liability.
5. Can you assist with FIDIC contracts and international tender documents?
Construction is a legal minefield. We specialize in the translation of FIDIC-based contracts, bid proposals, and joint venture agreements. We ensure that the precise legal obligations and technical requirements are preserved across languages, protecting your firm from future arbitration, financial disputes, or “scope creep.”
