What sets this area apart

Abu Halifa combines residential buildings of 4 to 6 storeys with small shops on medium-sized plots, and glass-block partitions separate residential units from shops and offices on the ground floor. The glass blocks allow sight lines through inner facades while providing essential sound isolation between different uses. The walls face high temperatures as shops and offices may generate heat, and require regular metal joints and flexible silicone that expands with heat.

Abu Halifa is located in Ahmadi governorate, a mixed residential and commercial area near Ahmadi Town.

Glass-block walls at mixed-use boundaries in Abu Halifa require minimum thermal expansion of 5 mm per metre length in the silicone joint.

Questions about Glass-block walls in Abu Halifa

Call now
Can a residential unit be separated from a shop by a glass-block wall?

Yes, provided the wall is engineered to withstand heat and noise from the shop. We use flexible silicone that expands with heat and strong metal ties to ensure wall stability.

Can glass blocks withstand day-night temperature swings?

Yes, if we use flexible silicone in the joints that allows expansion and contraction. The glass itself is durable and withstands thermal changes, but the mortar must be flexible.
