Second-floor addition in Kuwait - Ahmadi Stables

Second-floor addition in Ahmadi Stables

Adding a second floor to an existing structure in Ahmadi Stables requires careful assessment of the foundation and column capacity for the additional load. We review the original drawings, soil conditions and any prior settlement, then reinforce the current frame before pouring the new floor.

What sets this area apart

Buildings in Ahmadi Stables are typically staff housing, rider accommodation and storage facilities built on medium-sized plots with light foundations and closely spaced columns. Before adding the second floor, we conduct a full geotechnical survey of the soil and existing foundations and model load redistribution across each column. Foundations may need grouting or localised breakout and re-pouring. We monitor settlement and vertical cracking throughout the investigation, reinforcement and new-pour phases.

Ahmadi Stables lies in Ahmadi governorate, a specialist equestrian zone near the horse racing track.

Every existing column and foundation is inspected through geotechnical survey before we approve the load increase for the second floor.

Questions about Second-floor addition in Ahmadi Stables

Call now
How do you ensure the existing columns can carry the second floor?

We take soil samples around the foundations and inspect the existing column diameters, wall thickness and concrete strength. We calculate the additional load from the new floor and compare it against the current frame capacity. If capacity is insufficient, we reinforce the foundations or columns before pouring.

What if the existing building settles during the addition?

We monitor settlement with measuring devices that track any vertical or lateral movement of columns and walls during reinforcement and pouring. If settlement exceeds the permitted limit, we halt work and carry out additional bracing or localised cement grouting.
