What sets this area apart

Mirqab comprises a mix of two-storey villas and three and four-storey residential blocks, mostly built in the 1970s and 1980s on medium-sized plots. Common foundations are rafts or piles based on basic soil studies of that era. Columns typically have limited diameter and steel reinforcement inadequate for modern loads. Adding a floor requires detailed inspection of concrete and steel condition, soil load tests, then design of localised reinforcement or supplementary columns based on findings.

Mirqab lies in the Capital governorate near Central Market, Grand Mosque and Mirqab Mall, an older residential district with shops and markets.

Most Mirqab buildings have columns 25 to 30 centimetres in diameter and slabs 20 centimetres thick, limited for additional loads without reinforcement.

Questions about Additional floor in Mirqab

What is the common reason for weak columns in older Mirqab buildings?

Buildings were constructed before modern structural codes and used lower steel standards. Column steel ratios are low and usually lack spiral reinforcement, making them brittle under added loads.

Are soil tests necessary for every building in Mirqab?

Yes, the original soil studies are dated and may lack accuracy. We take new samples from foundation depth and test bearing capacity and expected settlement to ensure the new design is safe.
