Jumeirah Beach Residence is a large waterfront residential complex located along the Persian Gulf in Dubai Marina, United Arab Emirates.

The residential area comprises more than 40 towers, many of which reach 40 stories. In total, Jumeirah Beach Residence can accommodate over 15,000 residents.

Dextra Médio Oriente, also based in Dubai, was involved in numerous tower packages between 2003 and 2005.

Foundation Piles

To provide vertical connections in foundation piles, Dextra supplied its popular Bartec rebar coupler solution—the most trusted rebar splicing solution in the Middle East—through its fabrication partners.

As a complement to the couplers, more than 70,000 meters of Sonitec tubes were supplied to the piling contractor, offering a practical and safe method for assembling sonic tubes and significantly boosting productivity.

Jangada e Colunas

Bartec couplers were also used for horizontal connections in the thick foundation rafts and vertical connections in the protruding columns.

Core Wall-to-Beam Formulários

In the superstructure, Bartec couplers were used for horizontal connections between the core walls and beams.

For this application, couplers were cast into the core wall, flush with the formwork. A thread protection cap, supplied by Dextra, prevented concrete leakage into the Bartec acoplador.

At a later stage, continuation rebars, pre-threaded with Bartec threads, were connected into the pre-installed couplers, creating starter bars.
