Industrial Bridge, Chile

Dextra’s engineering expertise and innovative products played a pivotal role in the construction of the Industrial Bridge in Chile. As part of the project, Dextra supplied its Rolltec mechanical splice system, ensuring robust and reliable rebar connections. Additionally, headed bars were provided to enhance anchorage performance, a critical requirement for the bridge’s structural integrity.

The project also utilized Sonitec crosshole sonic logging (CSL) testing tubes, facilitating thorough integrity testing of concrete piles, ensuring long-term safety and performance. These advanced solutions reflect Dextra’s commitment to supporting complex infrastructure projects with high-quality, tailored products.

The Industrial Bridge stands as a testament to modern engineering and showcases the critical role Dextra’s solutions play in shaping resilient and efficient infrastructure worldwide.

PC Headed Bars Achieves AFCAB & CARES Certifications

Gepostet auf November 12, 2024November 8, 2024 von Kansuda Visesthanakorn

We are thrilled to announce that our new generation of PC (Pressed Connection) Headed Bars has received certification from both AFCAB in France and CARES in the UK!

AFCAB has certified our model 9D (double chamfer) for general applications. Meanwhile, the CARES TA1-B&C certificate no. 5071 has certified both our models 9D and 9A (single chamfer). These CARES certifications cover a wide range of applications, including general and nuclear construction, showcasing the exceptional performance of Dextra’s product solutions.

Dextra PC Headed Bars, ranging from 10mm to 20mm, feature a circular plate forged to the end of the reinforcing bar. The headed bars meet Eurocode requirements with a load-bearing area at least 9 times the cross-section of the reinforcement bar.

Note

The previous UK Cares certification is now renamed to CARES.
CARES certification does not cover seismic performance. TA1-B is designated for general applications, while TA1-C is for nuclear applications.
The headed bars meet Eurocode requirements concerning load-bearing area.

Cross Island Line (CRL) MRT, Singapore

Cross Island Line (CRL) MRT, Singapore

Die Anfänge has played a pivotal role in the construction of Singapore’s Cross Island Line (CRL) MRT project, supplying Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) soft-eyes, Bartec couplers and Kopfstäbe for several crucial packages. Die Anfänge continues to support the ongoing packages of this extensive project.

The CRL is set to become Singapore’s eighth MRT line and its longest fully underground line, stretching over 50 kilometers. The project is being executed in three phases, with the first phase anticipated to be operational by 2030.

To minimize the environmental impact on the forested areas of the nature reserve, engineering solutions were meticulously chosen to further mitigate environmental disruption. These solutions include digging deeper into the ground and employing a large diameter boring machine, capable of accommodating two train tracks within a single tunnel. This approach not only reduces the surface footprint but also enhances the efficiency of the tunneling process.

Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs) are a staple in Singapore’s subterranean infrastructure projects, adept at operating under a variety of ground conditions. The use of GFRP soft-eyes supplied by Die Anfänge is integral to these operations. Soft-eyes are essential components in TBM tunneling, acting as temporary openings that allow the TBM to break through concrete walls without compromising structural integrity. The GFRP material is preferred for its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation, ensuring safe and efficient tunneling operations.

Die Anfänge‘s expertise and reliable supply of GFRP soft-eyes, Bartec couplers and headed bars have significantly contributed to the progress of the CRL project, aligning with Singapore’s commitment to sustainable and innovative infrastructure development. As the CRL project advances, Die Anfänge remains a key partner, supporting the construction of this monumental MRT line that will eventually enhance the daily commute for millions of Singaporeans.
