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 Middle East, 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 บาร์เทค rebar coupler solution—the most trusted rebar ผลิตภัณฑ์สำหรับการเชื่อมต่อเหล็ก in the Middle East—through its fabrication partners.

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

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

Core Wall-to-Beam การใช้งาน

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

For this application, couplers were cast into the ผนังรับแรงเฉือน (จากแรงลมในอาคารสูง), flush with the formwork. A thread protection cap, supplied by Dextra, prevented concrete leakage into the บาร์เทค ข้อต่อ

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

Mataf is the area surrounding the Kaaba, the center of the holiest mosque in Islam, located within the Grand Mosque of Mecca. It is where the Tawaf, the counterclockwise circumambulation around the Kaaba, takes place.

The Mataf expansion is a large-scale project aimed at adding 1,300,000 sqm to the existing 400,000 sqm of space. The renovation will feature a new basement and three additional floors, increasing capacity for hundreds of thousands of additional worshippers.

For this significant project, Dextra Middle East has been involved in supplying rebar couplers and anchor solutions.

Mega Columns

For the mega columns, Dextra provided contractors with a solution to connect cages vertically while accommodating potential misalignment. This was achieved using บาร์เทค caging assemblies, which allow for a misalignment adjustment equivalent to one bar diameter.

In addition to enabling reconnection, the บาร์เทค caging assemblies were also used to temporarily lock the large column template (visible in red in photos) to ensure the correct setup of column reinforcement.

Mega Column Footing

เด็กซ์ตร้า บาร์เทค เหล็กเสริมปลายหัวขยาย (Headed Bars), which use the same type of threads as the couplers, were also installed at the footing of the mega columns to address reinforcement congestion.

The anchors, compact and easy to install, can be set on bars during the final stage of reinforcement installation. In this project, the anchors were installed from the top of the raft onto the vertical bars. More than 100,000 เหล็กเสริมปลายหัวขยาย (Headed Bars) were used in this type of application, appearing as X-shaped reinforcement at the column footing.

Column-to-Beam Connections

For more standard applications, บาร์เทค ข้อต่อ were also used to create horizontal connections between the columns and beams.
