Infrastructure and Foundation Works

Excavation and Foundation Construction

The foundation excavation works, forming the project's base, have been executed using controlled blasting excavation methods due to challenging ground conditions. This methodology ensures safe and efficient excavation in competent rock formations.

Reinforced Concrete Foundation System: Foundations constructed using high-grade concrete and steel reinforcement will guarantee the complex's long-term structural stability. Durability is enhanced through specialized waterproofing and moisture protection applications.

Load-Bearing System

Reinforced Concrete and Steel Composite System: Columns are designed as reinforced concrete and structural steel composite elements to achieve optimal cost-performance balance. This hybrid approach provides economical and structurally advantageous solutions.
