Introduction

Airport hangars in Saudi Arabia and across the GCC must accommodate massive aircraft, withstand harsh climates, and be constructed quickly to meet aviation industry timelines. Metalkarma Spaceframes offers large-span, modular hangar roofing solutions that combine strength, speed, and sustainability.

Infrastructure Growth in current GCC Aviation

With projects like King Abdulaziz International Airport expansion and Dubai World Central development, the GCC is investing heavily in aviation infrastructure. Hangars are critical for maintenance, repair, and storage of both commercial and military aircraft.

Spaceframe Advantages for Hangars

✅ Clear Spans of 100m+ – No columns interrupting aircraft movement.
✅ Custom Geometry – Adaptable to different aircraft sizes and operational needs.
✅ Lightweight but Strong – Reduces foundation load and material costs.
✅ Quick Installation – Modular prefabrication minimizes on-site work.

Wind & Temperature Performance

Metalkarma designs hangars to withstand high wind loads, intense summer heat, and saline coastal conditions common in GCC locations like Jeddah, Doha, and Muscat.

Custom Designs proposals for Aircraft Types

  • Narrow-body hangars for domestic fleets

  • Wide-body hangars for Boeing 777, Airbus A380, and cargo aircraft

  • Military hangars with specialized security and access controls
