Tameer Towers, the flagship project of leading real estate developer Tameer and the focal point of The Shams district of Reem Island in Abu Dhabi, is on schedule to start delivering in 2011.

After the successful completion of massive enabling works, Tameer completed the negotiations and signed the construction agreement with Al Rajhi Projects and Construction in alliance with Al-Habtoor Engineering Enterprises.

The nine million sq ft complex features a signature commercial tower and four luxury residential towers. Excavations of over seven million cubic feet were followed by further earthworks, shoring and piling (1000 piles in total) and in excess of 1.4 linear kilometers of diaphragm wall being constructed.

These enabling works for the entire development were successfully completed in December 2008, achieving a significant milestone in the project delivery schedule. Subsequently pile capping and trimming, concrete blinding and water-proofing work has been undertaken together with the erection of three tower cranes.

The start of sub-structure works is now imminent and superstructure works are expected to commence before the end of 2009.

The contractors of the new phase of the project have already mobilized their equipment and manpower to the site. – TradeArabia News Service
