The Car Servicing Building at 2 Kung Chong Road in Singapore is a mixed-use, 7-story facility featuring a basement car park, a car servicing center, and office space. The building will be occupied by the Automobile Association of Singapore.

This project, built by Zhengda Corporation Pte Ltd, utilizes مسبقة الصنع technology to achieve faster construction cycles. The مسبقة الصنع elements were produced by the Malaysian precaster Eastern Pretech.

For this project, Dextra supplied approximately 6,000 جروتيك couplers to the precaster, which were embedded into shear walls and column elements.

ال مسبقة الصنع elements were then transported to the site and reconnected to protruding تعزيز by injecting non-shrink grouting mortar. Bracing around the مسبقة الصنع elements is typically removed within three days of the grout injection, significantly reducing assembly time.

Nathani Heights is a 72-story skyscraper in Mumbai. With a total height of 262 meters, it is among the 30 tallest buildings in the city. Construction began in 2012 and was completed in 2018.

For this project, Dextra supplied its renowned بارتيك rebar coupler solution. بارتيك is the leading rebar coupler solution in India, meeting all technical requirements, including those for seismic areas.

As with other high-rise buildings, rebar couplers were used for large-diameter rebar connections in vertical applications such as columns and core walls (bar-to-bar vertical connections).

Rebar couplers were also used for slab connections. In this case, the coupler was pre-positioned flush with the formwork, allowing the climbing formwork to progress upwards. After casting, a threaded rebar was simply screwed into the coupler to create the starter bar.

Louvre Abu Dhabi is an innovative art and civilization museum located north of Abu Dhabi city, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. It is the largest museum in the Arabian Peninsula, with a total area of 24,000 square meters. Louvre Abu Dhabi officially opened its doors on November 11, 2017.

For this project, Dextra was involved in concrete works between 2013 and 2014, supplying its بارتيك rebar coupler solution to Arabtec for all rebar connections in the raft and columns. Couplers were also used to create temporary openings in the reinforcement structure, allowing the passage of workers and equipment. A total of 110,000 بارتيك تم توفير قارنات حديد التسليح لهذا المشروع.

ال بارتيك solution is approved by the Dubai Central Laboratory (DCL), making its use possible in the UAE. All threading services to prepare the rebar used at Louvre Abu Dhabi were performed by Dextra’s network of distributors.

Business Garden Bucharest is a modern mixed-use Class A office complex featuring retail spaces paired with commercial and public services on the ground level. The name Business Garden stems from its integrated, spacious green area—a garden connecting the buildings with designated recreation spaces. A generous lawn, pedestrian pathways, and benches with free Wi-Fi invite office-goers to work or take a refreshing break outside. The complex is LEED Platinum pre-certified.

To support tenants’ everyday needs, Business Garden Bucharest’s offices are designed with an efficient layout, high-quality finishes, and sustainable solutions aligned with LEED Platinum green certifications.

For this project, Dextra supplied its فورتك rebar coupler solution. فورتك consists of a standard rebar coupler that can be used for both standard and position splices, connecting two rebar ends that have been previously enlarged and threaded. فورتك is especially suitable for seismic environments, making it ideal for buildings in the Bucharest area.

فورتك couplers were used to provide superstructure vertical connections. Their compact design helps reduce congestion caused by rebar lapping. Additionally, فورتك couplers allowed for temporary openings, enabling worker and equipment movement around the reinforcement. Before casting, the continuation bars were simply connected to the couplers, closing the temporary gaps.

ICONSIAM, located on the right bank of the Chao Phraya River in western Bangkok, is a multipurpose commercial and residential complex consisting of two high-rise buildings and a shopping mall. This massive development aims to restore the glamour of the Chao Phraya River’s waterfront.

The two towers are expected to reach heights of 280 meters (SuperLux Tower) and 315 meters (Magnolia Tower), respectively. Upon completion, Magnolia Tower will surpass King Power Mahanakhon Tower, which has been Thailand’s tallest building since 2015.

Dextra is supplying Thai-Obayashi (the contractor for the shopping mall structure) and Italian-Thai (the contractor for both towers) with its بارتيك rebar محلول الوصل.

To ensure maximum efficiency in thread production, Dextra engineers have conducted operator training and provided on-site preventive maintenance.

In total, more than 800,000 بارتيك rebar couplers and 20,000 قضبان الرأس are being used in the foundations and superstructure for the following applications:

L-shaped وتد bars (wall-slab connections)

This is a typical application used in foundation جدران الحجاب الحاجز (D-Walls) to avoid protruding rebar. It is also used in the superstructure, allowing the sliding formwork to climb without obstruction.

Substitution of قضبان مدمن مخدرات with قضبان الرأس

When the wall تعزيز is especially congested, the use of قضبان الرأس (also called end anchors) allows for anchoring the تعزيز in the wall without the need for hooks.

Double-ended connection in shear-walls

This solution allows to create a continuity inside the column or wall by bridging two horizontal slabs or beams.

Welded couplers for مركب structures

Sometimes, it is necessary to start تعزيز from the steel structure. In such cases, weldable couplers are the ideal solution. Made of low-carbon steel, they can be easily welded and allow connection to a threaded rebar.

Landmark 81 is a high-rise tower project located on the banks of the Saigon River in Ho Chi Minh City. The project is owned by the Vietnamese company Vingroup.

Construction of the tower began at the end of 2014, and it reaches a height of 470 meters to tip, setting a new height record in Vietnam. Landmark 81 is the 17th tallest tower in the world.

For this project, Dextra is supplying its renowned بارتيك solution to the contractor Coteccons. The بارتيك solution has been approved by ARUP, the owner’s representative consultant, and MACE International, the structural consultant.

In total, 250,000 بارتيك couplers will be used for vertical rebar connections in the core wall and columns, as well as for horizontal applications such as core wall-to-beam and core wall-to-slab connections.

The use of rebar couplers allows the climbing formwork to progress unencumbered, while also enabling efficient connection of slab starter bars. These technologies, combined with state-of-the-art concrete monitoring, facilitate extremely fast construction cycles—as short as 35 hours per floor.

For composite applications (steel columns to beams), Dextra has also supplied 20,000 weldable couplers.

Example of weldable Bartec coupler on beam

The fast-paced construction site is supported by three sets of Dextra بارتيك bar-end preparation equipment, installed directly on site. The equipment is maintained by Dextra and operated by Dextra’s distributor in Vietnam, Lotus Greentech.
