What sets this area apart

Buildings in Abdullah Al-Salem are middle-aged, mostly built in the 1980s and 1990s on relatively deep foundations and columns with adequate cross-sections. The suburb is laid out in regular grid with spacious plots, so space allows for stairwell and partition walls of the third floor in logical sequence. However, the new storey's weight affects older foundations, so we test soil as deep as possible and calculate potential settlement before pouring.

Abdullah Al-Salem suburb is in Kuwait's Capital governorate, home to uniform residential buildings on spacious plots near the British Embassy area.

Most Abdullah Al-Salem buildings were originally designed for two or three storeys, with foundations typically extending 1.5 metres or more below grade.

Questions about Third-floor addition in Abdullah Al-Salem

Call now
Can older foundations support an extra floor without reinforcement?

We assess each case carefully. If foundations are deep, soil is good, and expected settlement is minimal, reinforcement may not be needed. Otherwise, we widen footings or add piles beneath.

How long does the structural assessment take before starting the third floor?

Assessment includes concrete and soil testing plus structural calculations, taking a few weeks depending on building size. We do not start work until we have written engineering approval in hand.
