What sets this area apart

Wafra is a historic agricultural district with large plots and wide spacing between buildings; residential towers there are 3 to 6 storeys with light loads compared to dense urban areas. The soil is thick sand with high groundwater, so we need tight drainage around foundations before pouring. High groundwater requires extra corrosion protection for reinforcement, and we use chloride and sulphate-resistant concrete. Evaporation is slower in this region due to moisture, but we watch for early cracking from thermal gradients.

Wafra is in Ahmadi governorate, a historic agricultural area with Wafra Co-op near the Saudi border.

Groundwater in Wafra is roughly 1 to 2 metres deep, so we pour foundations above this level or use waterproof protection.

Questions about Column pouring in Wafra

Call now
How do you handle high groundwater when pouring columns?

We create tight drainage and well-points around the site to reduce water, and wait until it is dry before starting foundation and column work.

Do you use special concrete to resist groundwater?

Yes, we use concrete with high resistance to chlorides and sulphates, and thick cover around each bar to reduce rust and corrosion.
