SOCAR Tower is corporate office tower located on the way to the city center of Baku, capital city of Azerbaijan. This is the tallest building in Azerbaijan, and in the entire Caucasus region.

The building acts as the headquarters of the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR)

The tower features 42 floors and reaches a height of 202 meters. It has been completed in 2016. It is now one of the most recognizable landmark of Baku.

For this project, Dextra has been involved on the project for concrete works between 2011 and 2014, supplying the Bartec rebar coupler solution for all rebar connections on the project. The project was supported by Bartec equipment sets, installed directly at site, and supported by Dextra European aftersales team for site support.

Dextra rebar couplers were supplied to contractor Tekfen for:

• vertical bar-to-bar connections in columns.
• horizontal rebar connections in slabs.
• wall to beam connections. In that case the coupler is cast flush with formwork in first phase concreting. After formwork removal, connecting rebar is simply screwed into the

To allow for the splicing of bars at places where the rebar haven’t been prepared with a thread, RepairGrip sleeves and hydraulic equipment were also supplied for precise applications. RepairGrip allow to conveniently splice rebar where the protruding length wouldn’t be sufficient to perform a safe overlap.
