Scope of Work
TTJ was proud to be involved for the erection work in this prestigious project in Bahrain. TTJ had to erect the spires that surmounts the building and the turbine bridges.

The spires on the Bahrain World Trade Centre touched a height of 240 m. The two spires have an overall height of 57 m and erected at a base level of 183 m. The spires were divided into 5 tiers to enable erection using the centrally placed 6 ton crane on site. Safety was a huge consideration. Also to install the spires at such heights is a great challenge not only because of the height but also wind conditions.

Similarly, it was also a feat itself to install the turbine bridges for the wind turbines by using strand jacks. This time installation has to span between the two towers besides the requirement to contend with the wind and limited lifting facilities.
