Комплекс Icon Siam | ไอคอนสยาม
Icon Siam complex, located on the right bank of the Chao Phraya river in the West of Bangkok, is a new multipurpose commercial/residential complex consisting of two highrise buildings and a shopping mall. This new massive project aims to give back its glamour to the banks of the Chao Praya river.
The two towers are expected to reach 280m (SuperLux Tower) and 315m (Magnolia Tower) respectively. The Magnolia Tower will thus be slightly taller than the MahaNakhon Tower, Bangkok’s tallest building since 2015.
Dextra is supplying Thai-Obayashi (contractor of the shopping mall structure) and Italian-Thai (contractor of both towers) with its Bartec rebar splicing solution.
Dextra engineers performed operator trainings and do preventive maintenance directly on site to guarantee maximum output in thread production.
In total, more than 800,000 Бартек rebar couplers and 20,000 Bartec Бары во главе are being used in foundations and superstructure in the following applications:
L-shaped dowel bars (wall-slab connections)
This is a typical application used in foundation D-Walls to avoid protruding rebar. it is also used in the superstructure to allow the sliding formwork to climb up without any disturbance
Substitution of hooked bars with end anchors
When the wall reinforcement is especially congested, the use of Headed Bars (also called end anchors) allows to anchor the reinforcement in the wall without the need to produce hooks.
Double-ended connection in shear-walls
This solution allows to create a continuity inside the column or wall by bridging two horizontal slabs or beams.
Welded couplers for composite structures
Sometimes it is necessary to start reinforcement from the steel structure. In that case, weldable couplers are the ideal solution: Made of a low-carbon steel, they can be welded easily and allow connection to a threaded rebar.
