What sets this area apart

Khiran is a seaside resort with a mix of residential buildings, villas and beach resorts on varied plot sizes. Ground floors of buildings carry strong columns and marine-resistant beams, and soil is fine sand saturated with moisture and very high salinity from direct sea proximity. Foundations need great depth and special salt- and sulphate-resistant concrete, plus very strong moisture barriers to prevent seawater seepage. Strong coastal winds also require extra care for frame stability during pouring.

Khiran is located in Ahmadi governorate as a seaside resort overlooking the Arabian Gulf directly.

Khiran's seaside environment requires high-strength salt- and sulphate-resistant concrete and double moisture barriers under all foundations.

Questions about Ground-floor construction in Khiran

What are the special concrete specifications for a saline coastal area?

We use C50 or higher concrete with pozzolanic and silica fume additives for salt and sulphate resistance. We also apply epoxy coatings on the outer surfaces of foundations for extra protection.

Does seawater affect steel reinforcement in foundations?

Yes, so we increase concrete cover around reinforcement to 50, 60 mm instead of the standard 40 mm. We also use galvanized steel or carbon-fibre reinforcement in sensitive areas closest to the sea.
