Additional floor in Hawalli

Adding a floor in Hawalli requires careful structural assessment of the existing foundations and frame before any work begins. We verify that columns and beams can carry the new storey, then execute from reinforcement through handover as one project.

What sets this area apart

Most Hawalli residential buildings are three to four storeys on medium-sized plots, and the original foundations were designed to carry those loads only. Adding a floor means checking the original structural drawings and verifying column and foundation thickness; we often need to reinforce the column with a combined footing or controlled stress method. The enclosed site between neighbouring buildings demands strict protection procedures for excavation and pouring, plus separate municipality permits for the structural modification.

Hawalli lies in Hawalli governorate and contains closely packed residential buildings with shops and services interspersed between structures.

Columns in older Hawalli buildings are typically 40 to 50 centimetres in diameter and need load testing before reinforcement decisions are made.

Questions about Additional floor in Hawalli

How do we verify that old building foundations can support an added floor?

We take soil samples around the existing foundation and test them in the lab, and review the original structural drawings and expected loads. If the soil or foundations are weak, we widen the foundation or add new support columns.

Can we add a floor to an old building without demolishing part of the roof?

Yes, but we first study the existing roof's strength. If the roof can bear the temporary load of new columns, we use it as a working platform; otherwise we remove only necessary sections.
