What sets this area apart
Ahmadi districts are built on regular residential plots with mixed desert soil of sand and clay, and most existing houses date from the 1970s and 1980s with shallow foundations 40 to 60 centimetres thick. Adding a new floor to these foundations needs thorough inspection for cracking and distress, and precise calculation of total and differential settlement. Mixed soil may compress at different rates under columns, so we need a stiff slab design capable of absorbing uneven settlement without cracking.
Ahmadi is in Ahmadi governorate, an organized urban district with Kuwait Oil Company headquarters and heritage gardens.
We test concrete thickness and quality, and reinforcement in foundation, slab and columns with non-destructive test equipment before design.

Questions about Additional floor in Ahmadi
Call nowCan old Ahmadi houses carry an additional floor?
Some can, some need strengthening. We inspect foundation, columns and slab with measurement devices and take concrete samples, then decide if the building can carry the load or needs reinforcement.
What is the difference between total and differential settlement in Ahmadi?
Total settlement is uniform subsidence of the entire building. Differential settlement is uneven subsidence of different parts, causing cracks. In Ahmadi, mixed soil may cause significant differential settlement.
