Second-floor addition in Yarmouk
Adding a second floor to an existing structure in Yarmouk requires precise structural assessment of the current columns and foundations. We conduct non-destructive inspections and engineering calculations, then pour the new floor under continuous technical oversight to final handover.

What sets this area apart
Yarmouk residential buildings range from one to three storeys, many built on shallow foundations in medium-density sandy soil. Columns are typically 35×35 or 40×40 cm with simple steel reinforcement. Before adding a floor, we inspect soil capacity with field tests and review original design drawings if available. If shallow foundations prove weak, we deepen them with excavation and underpinning, or add extra columns to distribute the new loads.
Yarmouk sits in the Capital governorate, a residential district of varied-height buildings near Yarmouk Sports Club.
Yarmouk soil is sandy with medium unit weight, and shallow foundations at 1 to 1.5 metres depth are typical for older residential buildings.

Questions about Second-floor addition in Yarmouk
Call nowHow do we handle sandy soil when adding a storey?
We test soil with excavation and compaction tests to measure its bearing capacity for the expanded foundation. If shallow foundations are inadequate, we dig deeper or add pile foundations beneath the new columns.
Can we add a floor to a Yarmouk house without modifying the old foundation?
It depends on the current foundation strength and soil. If foundations are deep, section is adequate and soil is strong, the new floor may rest on the same base. But that is rare; most cases need at least local reinforcement.
