This is another one of my Pet Project which is now still under construction after 3 long years of exciting and arduous trip of harship and efforts. This is the first of its kind structure for a mosque which is built entirely in Steel. The mosque occupies an area almost as big as a football field, measuring 120m x 120m of roof area. The dome is 48m in diameter supported by two transfer trusses with a span of 24 and 48m respectively. The structure was an alternative design proposed by my company which involves a significant materials and also shorter time installation period against the original construction schedule. The 24 modular screen walls (24m height) as you can see from the model above are cladded entirely in stainless steel to give the building an extra sheen and lustre.

This is my latest project under "Design & Build' contract for which my company is responsible for the large roof structure. The roof is about 100m diameter enclosing a space of almost 8000 square metres. This stadium will be ready for the 2008 Sukma Games in Terengganu commencing next month. The construction of the steel roof structure took almost 6 months in total and the design was completed in about a month. This is an alternative design to an earlier proposed 'space frame' which would require a lomger period of construction. In a nutshell, our proposal to convert the structural systeem into steel trusses augurs extremely well and which was completed within budget and in record time.
