The Meghbon project is a new luxury residential development in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The project consists of 25 pairs of residential towers, ranging in height from 25 to 41 storeys, across a 54 acre greenfield site. The development also includes on-site amenities such as a mosque, sports fields, gardens and parks. The site is split by an existing khal (canal) which is surrounded by reflecting pools which form the focal point of the development.
RBG provided structural engineering design for the residential towers at the concept stage. Following this, RBG fulfilled an advice and review role for the local engineer of record, Surbana Jurong. This role will extend from schematic stage to the completion of construction documentation. The role primarily involves specialist structural and geotechnical engineering advice related to tall structures, foundation design, seismic engineering and wind engineering.
