One Za’abeel – Ithra Dubai and ALEC
Entered by: ALEC Engineering and Contracting
One Za’abeel offers easy connectivity to the old and new Dubai. ALEC was awarded the high profile One Za’abeel project located between the Dubai World Trade Centre and Za’abeel Park. The project consists of two mixed-use towers that are linked by a suspended bridge. The suspended bridge is 105m high. Two basement tunnels that connect both towers are dedicated to vehicle access.
ALEC’s scope of work as the main contractor includes all concrete structures, waterproofing, masonry, link bridge, fireproofing, and underground services. One Za’abeel’s “The Link” is the world’s longest cantilever, and offers panoramic 360-degree views of Dubai from its viewing platform. The purpose of innovation is to push the limits of what is possible. Ithra Dubai and ALEC made use of state-of-the-art thinking and execution tools to demonstrate best practice in construction.
