Pattullo Bridge Replacement, Canada

Dextra has proudly contributed to the construction of the Pattullo Bridge Replacement project in Canada, a vital infrastructure project that will enhance connectivity between Surrey and New Westminster. As part of this ambitious endeavor, Dextra supplied 100,000 bartec couplers, ensuring robust and reliable rebar connections from the bridge’s foundations to its towering pylons.

El bartec couplers, known for their high performance and ease of installation, were integral in providing the necessary strength and durability required for this long-term infrastructure. Dextra’s involvement in the Pattullo Bridge project underscores the company’s commitment to delivering innovative solutions that support large-scale construction efforts worldwide. As the new bridge takes shape, it stands as a testament to the importance of reliable engineering components in building the infrastructure of tomorrow.

Cairo Monorail Bowstring Bridge, Egypt

The Cairo Monorail Bowstring Bridge project, a pivotal part of Egypt’s expanding urban infrastructure, has significantly benefited from the expertise and quality products supplied by Dextra. Known for their innovative engineering solutions, Dextra provided critical materials to support the construction of this state-of-the-art transportation link.

In particular, Dextra supplied tension rods in two distinct specifications for the project:

M78/OD75 in Grade CS520 – A total of 60 sets were delivered.
M83/OD80 in Grade CS520 – An additional 8 sets were provided.

These tension rods were specifically used as hangers for the bowstring bridge, ensuring a high level of strength and durability, which is crucial for the safety and longevity of the bridge, to maintain structural integrity and withstand the stresses of daily monorail operations.

Dextra’s tension rods, known for their high tensile strength and resistance to environmental factors while providing architectural pleasure, played a critical role in meeting these demands. This involvement underscores the importance of reliable and advanced engineering solutions in modern infrastructure projects, highlighting Dextra’s commitment to excellence and innovation in the field of civil engineering.

A66 Salzbachtal Bridge, Germany

The A66 Salzbachtal Bridge, located in Wiesbaden, Hesse, is a 304-meter-long, four-lane motorway bridge on the A66. Originally constructed in the mid-20th century, the bridge has been subject to wear and tear due to increasing traffic loads and aging infrastructure.

Foundation piles are fundamental to the stability and longevity of bridge structures. Ensuring their integrity is crucial to preventing potential structural failures. dextra played a pivotal role by supplying approximately 10,000 linear meters of Sonitec CSL (Cross Sonic Logging) tubes.

Sonic tubes are essential components in the CSL testing method, which is widely regarded as one of the most reliable techniques for assessing deep foundation integrity. Sonitec, designed for easy installation within the reinforcement cage, facilitates accurate cross-hole sonic logging, allowing engineers to precisely detect and locate defects within the piles.
