What sets this area apart

Sabahiya is a coastal residential zone with medium-sized plots characterised by very fine sandy soil and a high groundwater table due to proximity to the sea. Soil salinity and groundwater salinity affect concrete materials, so we use sulphate-resistant cement in the mix. Coastal slopes demand relatively tall retaining walls, and drainage is crucial to prevent water accumulation behind the wall. Weak soil requires deep excavation and the foundation must rest on more stable layers.

Sabahiya sits in Ahmadi governorate, a coastal residential zone near Kuwait Bay with weak sandy soil.

Sabahiya's retaining walls require a concrete mix with sulphate-resistant cement to ensure durability in the saline coastal environment.

Questions about Retaining wall in Sabahiya

How do you protect the retaining wall from coastal salinity?

We use sulphate and salinity-resistant cement in the concrete, install effective drainage behind the wall to prevent saline water accumulation, and apply an extra protective finish to the surface.

What is the safe foundation depth in Sabahiya due to weak sandy soil?

Weak sandy soil requires a foundation depth of at least two metres, sometimes more, to reach more stable layers. We conduct full soil surveys before determining final depth.
