In the summer of last year Affan was awarded the sub contract by Al Muhaidib Contractors to design, fabricate, deliver and install 8 structural composite domes, the feature roof components of the International Convention Centre, designed by Dar Al Handesah in Lebanon.

The domes will compose a 1 hour fire rated steel support structure, supporting advance structural composite domes finished with glass mosaics from Trend in Italy and LED lighting from MCL in Spain.

Work is progressing in design and the construction of a full size 14m mock up, with a commencement on site planned for March of this year.
