BITEC, the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre, is a large exhibition venue located east of Bangkok in the Bang Na district.

Dextra was involved in the Phase 2 expansion of the exhibition center, which took place between 2014 and 2016. The expansion project added three exhibition halls, increasing the exhibition space by more than 32,000 sqm under a ceiling height of 25 meters.

デキストラは、イタリア系タイ人の請負業者と協力して設計と長期供給を行いました。 tension rod systems that support the roof structure above the new BITEC exhibition halls.

In total, Dextra delivered 298 assemblies in various diameters, each composed of multiple rods connected with couplers and turnbuckles and anchored to the structure with fork ends. In several cases, the total assembly length exceeded 50 meters (with an average of 33 meters).

Delivery took place at the end of 2015, and installation was completed by mid-2016. Bangkokians can still easily admire the テンションロッド roofing structure when stopping at BTS Bearing station or driving along the Bang Na-Trat highway.

このような大きな構造物の場合、 tension rods 他の「テンション」ソリューションと比較して、荷重下での伸びが低く、必要なポストテンション力が低く、耐腐食性が高く、長期の緩和が減少し、メンテナンスと監視のコストが削減されるなど、多くの利点があります。

さらに、フォークエンドのおかげで取り付けが簡単で、非常に美しい屋根構造を提供します。
