De Zalmhaven Tower Structural Verification 2019BAM Advies & Engineering
For the construction of the 215-meter Zalmhaven Tower in Rotterdam, the tallest residential building in the Benelux, BAM Advies & Engineering utilized ETABS to re-model and verify the initial structural designs. The software was specifically chosen for its advanced capabilities in high-rise stability and weight calculations, allowing for a rigorous peer review of the primary load-bearing system.
The ETABS model enabled the engineering team to automate the labeling of structural elements via Python scripts and provided a secondary verification of the SCIA Engineer models used in the design phase, ensuring compliance with Dutch safety standards for skyscrapers.

Sector-level context showing where this capability is relevant in Mombasa.
Maritime & Port Logistics
The Port of Mombasa is one of the largest and busiest in East and Central Africa, with direct connectivity to over 80 ports worldwide, making maritime logistics the city's dominant economic sector.
Tourism & Hospitality
Mombasa is Kenya's premier coastal tourism destination, with beach resorts, marine parks and proximity to Tsavo and Shimba Hills driving a large hospitality workforce.
Manufacturing & Refining
Mombasa hosts a cement plant, oil refinery, steel mill and aluminium rolling mill, forming an industrial base linked to the port's import-export flows.
Telecommunications & BPO
Major intercontinental undersea telecom cables land near Mombasa, supporting a growing call-centre and business process outsourcing cluster in the region.
Training venue
Mombasa offers a range of hotels from international-standard beach resorts in Nyali and Diani to business-class properties on Mombasa Island, many of which have conference and training facilities. Delegates should confirm venue AV equipment and room layout in advance, as standards vary.
Getting there
Direct flights are available on TUI fly Netherlands from Amsterdam (AMS) to Moi International Airport (MBA) in approximately 10–12 hours; year-round connections are operated by KLM and Kenya Airways via Nairobi (NBO) or Ethiopian Airlines via Addis Ababa (ADD).
Visa
Kenya replaced traditional visas with an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) from January 2024. Most non-African nationals must apply via etakenya.go.ke at least 7 days before travel (~USD 32–34); many African nationals are exempt following the May 2025 expansion. Confirm your specific eligibility on the official eTA portal.
Safety
Mombasa is generally welcoming to visitors, but delegates should use licensed taxis or rideshare apps rather than informal transport, especially after dark. Keep valuables discreet, stay aware in crowded market areas, and carry a copy of your passport rather than the original.
