The Port of Laem Chabang, located on the Gulf of Thailand, is the largest and busiest port in the country, surpassing even Bangkok Port. It is also the 4th busiest port in Southeast Asia. Situated in the Chonburi province, just a couple of hours’ drive from Bangkok and Dextra’s main production facility. The port plays a critical role in the region’s logistics and trade.

Dextra has been involved with the contractor, Italian-Thai, for the engineering and supply of steel structures for the new pier at Laem Chabang Port.

Dextra engineered and supplied its high-performance समुद्री टाई बार्स in Grade 700, the highest grade in our range. This grade offers an improved performance-to-steel ratio compared to lower grades like 355/510 and 500/660. It allows for the use of smaller diameter bars, leading to steel savings, and simplifies logistics and installation efforts.

The bars used in the long tendons were anchored into concrete piles and spliced using turnbuckles and couplers. In total, Dextra supplied 206 tons of समुद्री टाई बार्स for the Laem Chabang expansion project, contributing to the development of this key infrastructure.

Mubarak Al-Kabeer is a significant seaport located on the island of Bubiyan, east of Kuwait, with an open gateway to the Persian Gulf. This seaport plays a vital role in Kuwait’s maritime infrastructure and economic development.

Dextra was involved in Stage 2 of the first phase of the Mubarak Al-Kabeer construction project between 2011 and 2012, collaborating with Hyundai E&C, the contractor for this ambitious project.

For this large-scale development, Dextra supplied marine tie bars to secure and anchor the quay of the offloading facility. The system leveraged Dextra’s large-diameter M134 tie rods, which were anchored into the combiwalls using Ball Cages, offering a ± 10° rotation capability in all directions, and Captive Nuts, allowing ± 5° rotation capability in all directions.

To accommodate the long tendons, provide the necessary adjustment length, and offer additional flexibility during installation, turnbuckles and Hinge Couplers were integrated into the system where required. These Hinge Couplers allowed for ± 90° vertical adjustment, ensuring that the system was adaptable and could be easily installed under varying conditions.

This solution contributed to the project’s success by providing a durable, flexible, and high-performance anchoring system for the quay, ensuring the stability of the offloading facility for years to come.

In 1988, ICTSI secured a 25+25-year concession to operate the Manila International Container Terminal (MICT), one of the Port of Manila’s three terminals. Since then, MICT has grown significantly, increasing its capacity five-fold and becoming the largest and most modern container terminal in the Philippines.

MICT is now globally recognized for its efficiency and modern operations. As part of its expansion, the Berth 7 project was undertaken to alleviate congestion at off-dock container yards by extending Berth 6. Dextra played a key role in this project.

For this expansion, Dextra supplied 110 sets of समुद्री टाई बार्स, each made from Grade 700 steel, with a bar diameter of 85mm. These tie bars were used as anchorages to tie back the main concrete wall, which was cast on top of tubular steel piles. The system was connected to a sheet pile anchor wall, which in turn was linked to the crane rail beam, providing essential stability to the structure.

Dextra’s marine tie bar solution offers three steel grades, with a yield stress of up to 700 MPa, and 22 thread diameters. This wide range ensures that the bars can be precisely matched to meet specific performance requirements, allowing for an efficient and economic use of materials.

By providing high-strength, durable, and reliable marine tie bars, Dextra helped ensure the structural integrity of the expanded berth, supporting MICT’s mission to remain one of the leading container terminals in the world.

The Aqaba Container Terminal (ACT) is located on the northern shores of the Gulf of Aqaba in southern Jordan. It is the only container terminal in the country and the second largest on the Red Sea in terms of capacity.

Dextra contributed to the creation of ACT’s new berth between 2011 and 2012 as part of a project aimed at increasing the terminal’s capacity to 1.2 million TEUs. The expansion began operations in 2013.

For this project, Dextra supplied its Marine Tie Bar solutions to BAM International. The rods were provided in Grade 500 in two sizes: M105 and M125.

The long tendons were connected to the combi-wall on one side with a Dextra Ball Cage, allowing for a multidirectional angle of ±10 degrees. This greatly facilitated the installation process while addressing possible soil settlement.

On the opposite wall, the tie rods were anchored using swivel plates and nuts, set up over waling beams. Dextra’s swivel accessories also allow a rotation angle of ±7 degrees in all directions.
