Narrative Description of the Project:
The purpose of this project is the construction of 1 km long underpass linking the Bait al Baraka Palace to the Oman Symphony Orchestra complex. The site is located along the Batinah Highway and the underpass will provide grade separated access underneath this Highway. The general drainage is parallel to the underpass towards the ocean. The underpass will be constructed under the Highway and consequently the structure must be capable of withstanding the Oman Highway Design Loads without distress. The remainder of the underpass must make allowance for future roads and consequently RSA were instructed to design the entire underpass to withstand these loads. Also, redevelopment of surrounding roads to match with underpass level and design of some new service roads.
