The top-level bridge serves as an observatory providing uninterrupted views of New Dubai to the south and Old Dubai to the north.Dubai Municipality appointed Hyder to prepare a report, concept and scheme design for the Dubai Frame, after which the contract will be completed on a design and build basis. Hyder’s scope of works includes architecture, structural engineering, MEP engineering, fire strategy services, vertical transportation and site supervision. The lightweight and highly


aerodynamic nature of the structure necessitated careful structural analysis and design, involving in- depth wind tunnel modelling.
