Dextra is showcasing innovative ground engineering solutions, featuring जीएफआरपी सॉफ्ट-आइज़ और Rock-Bolts, at the World Tunnel Digital Congress (WTC) 2020 on September 14-16, 2020.

WTC is one of the world’s leading tunneling event that explores the latest innovations, trends and advances in all areas of tunneling, from tunnel project development to both design and construction.

The event is moved to a fully digital platform due to the impact of COVID-19: it will include online technical paper presentations, along with training courses, and virtual exhibitions by companies from all over the world.

Dextra features a wide range of underground temporary and permanent support solutions, with a focus on cuttable glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) technology: join us at the virtual exhibition at booth no. SS11 (Silver Sponsor)!

Dextra GFRP rebar technology is featured in the April 2020 issue of the SAICE Civil Engineering magazine.

The article provides guidance on the design of lateral support systems using FRP rebars as soil nails or ground anchors.

Fiber-reinforced polymers are increasingly used in mining and tunneling projects as they provide high performance while being easily cuttable, corrosion-free and lighter in weight with respect to steel rebars.

The Imperial College London tested Dextra Bartec/Fortec and Griptec couplers at elevated temperatures to evaluate how the couplers would perform in case of a fire.

Highlights of the test include:

Please read full article below:

Dextra have recently collaborated with Imperial College London to investigate the performance of rebar couplers at elevated temperatures, simulating temperatures which could occur in rebar due to fire, both before and after concrete spalling.

Standard 16mm and 20mm Bartec/Fortec and Griptec couplers were used, as well as non-spliced reinforcement and tests conducted at ambient, elevated steady state and transient elevated temperatures.

Codified procedures for the fire design of reinforced concrete structures typically give prescriptive recommendations for rebar/coupler cover with the aim of protecting the reinforcement from reaching temperatures above a critical value of around 500°C.

The test results show that:

The findings also indicate that current codified rules can be used for assessing the strength and stiffness properties of both non-spliced rebar and rebar connected with Bartec/Fortec or Griptec couplers.

However, the code assumptions regarding the ultimate strain characteristics at elevated temperatures were found to be unrealistic for hot rolled rebar, as well as rebar connected by couplers.
