Zamil Steel, a global leader in the manufacture of pre-engineered steel buildings (PEB) has been awarded a $9.6 million contract to supply and erect the steel building for Qatar’s latest landmark Retail, Sports and Entertainment Center, ‘Le Villaggio’.
Work on the 100,000 square meter development, which began in January 2004, is expected to be completed by May 2005 as a soft opening is expected by October 2005.
Amana Steel Building Contracting Company, Zamil Steel’s exclusive Certified Builder in Qatar, has been awarded the erection of this prestigious project, The Bahrain Tribune reported.
"In practical terms, what this means is a very complicated curved architecture, which necessitates the use of a mix of building materials incorporating concrete and steel.
Zamil Steel’s involvement in this project relates to the construction of the entertainment and department store areas as well as the hyper market site and a three-dome decorative structure. These will be constructed using a pre-engineered building system, since this material will produce a finished product with large unobstructed areas as per our requirements," said Maher Mootassem, Project Manager, Business Trading Company, the developer of Le Villaggio.
