Plot No. 3260927, Al Jadaf, Dubai, U.A.E.
Proposed 3B + G + 12 + Roof Building
Location: Plot No. 3260927, Al Jadaf, Dubai, U.A.E.
This development consists of a high-rise residential/commercial tower with three basements, ground floor, twelve floors, and a roof level, located in the densely developed Al Jadaf district of Dubai.
Due to the significant basement depth and challenging soil conditions, the project required a robust and well-engineered foundation and shoring system.
HDFC was appointed as the Enabling Works Contractor to design and execute the deep excavation support system, including the secant pile wall, multiple layers of anchors and struts, and controlled excavation operations.
HDFC constructed a secant pile wall system designed to retain soil and provide structural support during deep excavation.
The system was engineered to ensure:
This secant wall formed the primary boundary of the deep excavation area.
To reinforce the retaining system, HDFC installed two levels of heavy-duty steel struts, strategically positioned to resist soil pressure and maintain stability throughout excavation.
These struts were designed to support the secant wall at critical stages and prevent deformation.
The project required three layers of pre-stressed ground anchors to further stabilize the excavation boundary.
These anchors enhanced the performance of the shoring system by providing:
Each anchor was tested and tensioned according to strict quality control procedures.
HDFC executed the deep excavation, reaching a final depth of 16.0 meters and removing approximately 24,000 cubic meters of soil.
The excavation was carried out in controlled stages, based on engineering analysis and safety protocols.
Key considerations included:
To ensure the integrity of the shoring and anchoring system, HDFC conducted:
Detailed ITPs, QA/QC reports, and method statements were submitted throughout the project.
Successfully executed deep excavation and shoring works for a multi-basement high-rise structure.
Delivered precise piling and secant shoring systems using advanced drilling technology.
Maintained full compliance with consultant specifications and strict safety standards.
Completed enabling works efficiently, ensuring a stable foundation for superstructure construction.
HDFC successfully delivered all enabling works within the scheduled timeline, without any safety incidents, and in full compliance with the consultant’s specifications.
The precise installation of secant piles, anchors, and steel struts ensured a highly stable excavation, enabling the main contractor to proceed confidently with raft and substructure construction.
The project stands as a strong showcase of HDFC’s ability to manage deep, complex, and high-risk excavations using advanced engineering solutions.
