Bahrain's imposing Rashid Al Zayani Mosque takes a traditional form and applies it on a grand scale. Sitting on a 2,810 square metre site, the mosque has capacity for up to 1,230 worshippers. BFG was selected to design, manufacture and install a series of structural domes -- from the landmark 16 metre diameter dome, beautifully finished in bronze, to a secondary eight metre dome and a suite of five eight metre diameter half domes arranged in sequence around the base of the main structure. Fabricated using a hand lamination process, the domes are gelcoated FRP with a double-sided finish and can withstand wind loads of up to 120 km/h.
