Allama Iqbal International Airport
Civil and Finishing Works — Airside Concourse & Terminal Facilities
About this project
Commissioned for high-spec civil engineering, heavy-duty structural concrete slabs, and architectural finishing at Allama Iqbal International Airport in Lahore Cantt, Saakht demonstrated why it is regarded as a premier commercial construction company in Lahore. The mandate demanded strict compliance with Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and international ICAO aviation criteria, heavy footfall mechanical endurance, and non-disruptive night-shift casting.
Key Features & Highlights
- Facility: Aviation Concourse
- Concrete: 5,000 PSI High-Early
- Steel Grade: Grade-60 ASTM A615
- Flooring: Commercial Heavy Abrasion
- Compliance: ICAO / CAA Aviation Code
What we solved
Operating inside an active, tier-one international airport required continuous coordination with aviation security, stringent Foreign Object Debris (FOD) containment, zero-tolerance dust migration into active HVAC intakes, and non-destructive structural tie-ins with existing terminal foundations without interrupting flight schedules.
How we built it
Saakht deployed specialized night-shift engineering crews, engineered negative-pressure dust containment bulkheads, and utilized computer-batched 5,000 PSI high-early-strength concrete mixes. Saakht’s civil engineering team maintained daily ultrasonic weld testing and laser floor leveling, completing all concourse sectors with zero flight disruption and zero safety incidents.
