UAE-based Azizi Developments is advancing construction at its premium development – Burj Azizi – with works progressing across both the raft foundation of the main tower and the automated car park building: two of the most engineering-intensive phases in the build of what will be the world’s second tallest tower. 

The car park building, which extends nine basement levels and reaches almost 30 m below ground, recently saw one of the most significant concrete pours of the project to date. 

Over the course of just 40 hours, more than 200 workers and 700 trucks delivered 7,000 cu m of concrete to form the structure that will house Burj Azizi’s fully automated parking system. In parallel, work continues on the tower’s raft foundation, a continuous concrete slab 5 m thick, engineered to bear and distribute the full load of the 725-m, 140-storey structure. 

With 750 workers on-site daily, the team is delivering this critical phase with precision and an unwavering commitment to safety, laying the structural basis from which Burj Azizi will rise. Worker welfare remains central to every stage of construction, with all works carried out in accordance with the highest international standards.

Apartments in this skyscraper range from one- to three-bedroom units, with ultra-luxury penthouses occupying the upper residential floors through their own dedicated lobbies. Amenity levels are spaced throughout the tower. Higher still, an all-suite, seven-star hotel aims to set a new benchmark in luxury hospitality.
