サンフランシスコのニューベイブリッジ

サンフランシスコのニューベイブリッジ

The New Bay Bridge was a large civil engineering project undertaken between 2002 and 2013. The aim of the project was to replace two segments of the Bay Bridge that were vulnerable to earthquakes with a new structure designed to withstand seismic forces.

For this project, Dextra was involved in two segments of the renovation: the approach to the Bay Bridge on the San Francisco side and the eastern segment from Yerba Buena Island to Oakland.

Dextra supplied its バーテック® Headed Bar systems for this project. Headed Bars feature an anchor disc mounted on the end of a rebar previously prepared for the Bartec® system.

の用法 頭付きバー provides a smart and compact alternative to long rebar hooks in areas where reinforcement is particularly congested. Unlike hook bars, Headed Bars are easy to install, as end anchors can simply be screwed onto the reinforcement at a later stage, after the reinforcement is in place.

For the approach to the Bay Bridge in San Francisco and the eastern segment of Yerba Buena Island, Bartec® Headed Bars were used for shear reinforcement in the column foundations as well as in the bridge hinges.

The Bartec® Headed Bars solution is approved by Caltrans (the California Department of Transportation) for all imperial bar sizes #3 to #18 and is also certified by the ICC-ES.

デクストラは、2008 年の建設工事開始から 2015 年まで現場に常駐していました。

For this challenging project, Dextra has been supplying its Griptec rebar splicing solution through its local fabricator partners. The rebar preparation was supported by an additional machine placed on site.

Griptec is the preferred rebar splicing solution of the nuclear industry thanks to its unique performance level and an automatic testing process which systematically tests all the connections produced as part of its standard cycle: a guarantee that 100% of the connections perform above project requirement.

More than 800,000 Griptec connections have been used on the project, including 400,000 position assemblies, allowing the connection of large diameter rebar without rotating them. The Griptec connections have been installed on the reactor building and APC shell, as well as auxiliary buildings.

In particular, Griptec has been used for the connections of large prefabricated panels.

Thanks to its Bridging Assemblies, square panels could be reconnected on four-sided panels while coping for possible misalignment that occurs when lifting the cage.

ハノイ ニャットタン橋

ハノイ・ニャッタン橋(ベトナム・日本友好橋)

The Nhat Tan Bridge is an impressive cable-stayed bridge spanning the Red River, located north of Hanoi. The total length of the project is 8.9 km, including the 3.75 km main bridge.

The bridge serves as a new gateway to Hanoi, significantly reducing travel time to Noi Bai International Airport, the second busiest airport in Vietnam by passenger volume.

The bridge was inaugurated by the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam and opened to the public on January 4, 2015. It has since been renamed the “Vietnam – Japan Friendship Bridge.”

Dextra has been involved in the Nhat Tan Bridge since the early stages of the project, supplying the widely used バーテック® rebar couplers, the leading rebar splicing solution in Vietnam. Bartec® connections were used in various parts of the project, including approaches, foundation piles, pile caps, and bridge segments.

Bartec® couplers offer a versatile rebar splicing solution, as the same standard coupler can be used for both standard connections (where the rebar rotates into the coupler) and position connections (where only the coupler rotates, useful when rebar rotation is not possible). Dextra supplied more than 130,000 connections in total for this project, enabling the lifting of heavy elements.

For the temporary operations of lifting and securing the precast girder segments, Dextra also supplied 36 tons of high-tensile PT bars.

Two IFC (International Finance Centre), Hong Kong

Two IFC is a landmark skyscraper in Hong Kong, located in West Kowloon. The 412-meter-high commercial building features 88 floors and is the second tallest building in Hong Kong, following the ICC Tower.

Vertical reinforcement is a crucial structural feature for buildings of this height. Consultant ARUP and contractors E-Man-Sanfield JV selected Dextra for the splicing of reinforcement throughout the building.

For this project, Dextra supplied more than 200,000 バーテック rebar couplers, which were primarily used for vertical connections, especially in all columns.

Additionally, rebar couplers provided connection points for second-phase rebar reconnection, typically between columns and slabs and columns and beams. To achieve this, rebar couplers were aligned horizontally and cast in concrete, allowing for reconnection at a later stage by screwing in the second-phase rebar.

バーテック is the preferred reinforcement splicing solution for contractors in Hong Kong, as it is recommended in the Hong Kong Building Material List. Dextra also operates its own rebar threading workshop in Hong Kong, providing rebar preparation services for its customers.

ニューシャンプレーン橋

ニューシャンプレーン橋

The New Champlain Bridge is a 3 km-long bridge spanning the Saint Lawrence River at the southeastern entrance of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. As one of the busiest bridges in Canada, it plays a crucial economic role for the city, serving as a key route to the United States, located 60 km south.

 

Replacing the Older Champlain Bridge

The New Champlain Bridge is replacing the existing Champlain Bridge, which was commissioned in June 1962. The older structure began showing signs of corrosion in 1994. After several temporary safety measures were implemented to keep the bridge operational, a replacement project was initiated in 2007. For a time, both bridges will stand side by side until the older structure is fully dismantled, with most of its materials planned for recycling.

 

A Focus on Corrosion Resistance

The New Champlain Bridge is designed to last at least 125 years and accommodate 50 million vehicle crossings per year. Given the corrosive environment caused by frequent road de-icing, corrosion resistance was a top priority. Duplex stainless steel rebar was installed in critical areas to enhance durability.

For this project, Dextra recommended using Duplex Stainless Steel Rolltec couplers and anchors. This specialized version of our ロールテック® system replaces standard couplers and anchors with an improved duplex steel alternative, offering superior corrosion resistance.

The Rolltec® solution is well-suited to the Canadian market and is approved by the Quebec Ministry of Transport. With a single-operator threading machine and 30-second threading cycles, it provides high productivity, making it ideal for high-labor-cost markets like Canada.

More than 10,000 Stainless Rolltec® couplers were supplied for this project, primarily for bridge spans. These couplers were used to splice large-diameter reinforcement bars, ranging from 35M (#11) to 55M (#18)—the largest size available in our Rolltec® range.

Additionally, about 10,000 Rolltec® stainless steel end anchors were delivered for sizes up to 55M (#18). Rolltec® Headed Bars use the same threading system as the couplers, simplifying production and installation.
