What sets this area apart

Ardhiya Industrial has warehouses and factories on large plots, mostly steel-frame buildings on sturdy foundations with roofs of corrugated sheets and panels or hollowcore concrete slabs. When adding a floor, steel columns and foundations must be re-inspected under the new load, since factories often run heavy machinery already straining the base. Adding a residential or office floor above an industrial shed requires clear acoustic and structural separation plus special municipal approval.

Ardhiya Industrial sits in Farwaniya governorate, a zone dedicated to light and medium-use warehouses and factories.

Most steel frames in factories carry live loads exceeding 500 kg/m² before any floor addition is considered.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Ardhiya Industrial

Call now
Can a residential floor be built above an existing factory?

Yes, but foundations and columns must be inspected first, and full acoustic and structural separation built between factory and residence. Municipal approval is required since usage changes from industrial to mixed-use.

What if the foundations are weak and cannot support an additional floor?

In that case, we recommend foundation strengthening through concrete injection or additional piling, or reconsidering the addition. Foundation reinforcement can be costly and time-consuming since work happens beneath an occupied building.
