DAMAC Hills, developed by the renowned master developer DAMAC Properties, is a premier luxury community in Dubai. Known for its high-end residential, commercial, and hospitality developments, DAMAC Hills spans over 42 million square feet and features a diverse range of projects, including apartments, townhouses, and villas.
TECON had the honor of participating in this prestigious “Beverly Hills of Dubai” development. We primarily provided our advanced formwork system for constructing the slab structures of 616 villas. Below, we present an overview of the project details as well as the after-sales services we have delivered.

Project type: Villas
Project status: Ongoing
Location: Dubai, UAE
Formwork system used: Slab Flex 20 Formwork with aluminum beam instead
Total formwork area: 3750 m2
Slab Flex 20 Formwork is ideal for any slab thickness, height, design, irregular layouts, and projects with high-density drop beams. It offers flexible options for plywood, shoring props, and beam types. Timber beams are cost-effective and quick to install, while aluminum beams provide additional advantages: they are lighter, reusable, easier to handle, and highly durable, making them a sustainable and efficient alternative. For large-scale and high-rise projects like those in Dubai, aluminum beams are an excellent choice for seamless integration.

Slab Flex 20 Formwork proved highly adaptable for this project, but several technical challenges needed careful attention. The support system had to fully comply with European standards, while frequent revisions of structural drawings required timely adjustments to the formwork plan. Additionally, on-site construction conditions had to be considered, with certain areas requiring supports to be avoided or extended.

Despite these challenges, the project achieved excellent results. Our team completed two weeks of on-site installation and after-sales guidance, and we assisted in timely modifications of the formwork plan to ensure smooth progress and compliance with project requirements.

The 616-Villa Development at DAMAC Hills demonstrates the versatility and reliability of TECON’s Slab Flex 20 Formwork system. By leveraging both timber and aluminum beams, we successfully addressed complex design requirements, high-density drop beams, and on-site challenges. Through proactive planning, timely adjustments, and dedicated on-site support, TECON contributed to the smooth progress of this prestigious project, reinforcing our commitment to delivering efficient, safe, and sustainable formwork solutions for large-scale developments.
