Project details:
Hassan Al Wadi Mosque
Description : A unique, one-of-a-kind mosque is currently under construction in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The project features two tall minarets, two ablution blocks for men and women, and a centrally positioned main mosque, all arranged within a courtyard.
The design is highly distinctive, with no straight-line walls, and a roof featuring concave and spherical forms. Large glass openings allow abundant natural light to illuminate the main prayer hall, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere.
Scope : Our scope of work included the design, supply, and supervision of formwork, scaffolding and access systems for the walls and slabs. Due to the project’s geometrical complexity, each formwork section had to be custom designed for a specific casting sequence, as the radial walls curved inwards. The scaffolding design was carefully engineered to accommodate angular, vertical, and horizontal loads, enabling the slab and a portion of the dome upstand to be cast in a single operation. As the minarets progressed, full-height access became necessary, and our solutions were adapted accordingly. Equipment supplied included walers, H20 beams, Cuplok scaffolding, and purpose-made timber firrings, all integrated to ensure safe, efficient, and precise construction.
