Industrial By the end of 2016, BSI was able to complete nearly 80 buildings across the New Industrial Area, which serve various light industrial functions. One of their largest complexes in the New Industrial area is the steel factory belonging to Qatar Steel Company that occupies an area of 35,000 square metres. More complexes have been provided in other areas like Um Saieed to service heavy industrial utilities. Some of the highlighted projects are the precast-cut and bend complexes made for producing glass, aluminum and wood for QD-CPC industry, spanning 52,000 square metres. BSI also completed the advanced pipes and cast complex for Builders Advanced Engineering & Construction over an area of 27,000 square metres.

The same company also engaged BSI towards completing the fabrication and installation of a nearly 15,000-square metre desalination project at Ras Abu Fontas.

BSI has developed and fabricated different types of facilities utilising PEBs across a wide range of industries. This includes logistic villages and warehouses, aircraft hangars, business lounges, hypermarkets, labour accommodations, breeding sheds, animal facilities, recreational and sports facilities, car parks, shopping malls, office buildings, industrial and fabrication facilities, schools, poultry farms, petrol stations, port cabins, museums, car showrooms and mini storage facilities.

Support for special developments BSI is always available to support clients towards new developments for industrial and fabrication facilities. They provide the design and fabrication, covering all possible options, when it comes to the selection of different kinds of crane support structures (top-running cranes which may support lifting capacity across a range of 5 tonnes to as high as 180 tonnes, jib cranes, under hung cranes, gantry cranes, etc.) Also these special facilities may require extensive clearance inside the buildings (too many columns may interrupt running operations); so clearances between columns inside the buildings can be designed to extend from 25 metres up to 60 metres between medium and heavy industrial facilities, as per client specifications
