What sets this area apart

Most Abdullah Al-Salem houses are multi-storey villas with slab capacity limits, many built fifty years or more ago. Before drawing any annex, we take concrete samples from the roof and study the original contract drawings if available to know slab depth and reinforcement. Annexes here are usually a small bedroom or office, meaning modest loading but requiring clear separation from the original structure and independent drainage.

Abdullah Al-Salem sits in Capital governorate near the British Embassy area, a district of relatively older residential villas.

Most roof slabs in older villas are 20 centimetre thick and carry a live load not exceeding 250 kilogrammes per square metre.

Questions about Rooftop annex design in Abdullah Al-Salem

How do we verify the roof can carry the annex weight?

We extract a concrete sample from the roof for testing and review original drawings to determine slab thickness and reinforcement, then calculate the annex's total load and submit an engineering report before finalising the design.

Does the rooftop annex need a separate foundation from the original villa?

Yes, we design isolated columns that transfer the annex load directly to the slab or existing load-bearing walls without connecting to the original structure, to avoid cracks in the villa.
