What sets this area apart

Salhiya features multi-storey commercial and administrative buildings on regular plots, many of which need large buried tanks for water storage due to high daily demand. Tanks here are built under courtyards, passages or under the foundations themselves, requiring precise geotechnical soil study and depth calculation to sit below the groundwater table. The proximity of other services and utilities also means excavation must be done with care to avoid cutting existing underground lines.

Salhiya is located in the Capital near Salhiya Commercial Complex, a densely built business district with complex underground utility networks.

Underground tank depth in Salhiya typically does not go below 2.5 metres beneath natural ground level to avoid groundwater seepage.

Questions about Underground tank construction in Salhiya

How do you avoid cutting existing services while excavating?

We request the utility map from the municipality and relevant authorities before excavation begins, then precisely mark water, electrical and telecom routes and hand-excavate near them.

Does the buried tank need extra protection from moisture and external factors?

Yes, we apply a strong reinforced concrete seal to walls and floor, then add a bituminous waterproofing layer and may use plastic membranes depending on soil moisture, to ensure the tank remains watertight for decades.
