North Luzon Expressway

The North Luzon Expressway project (NLEx) is a large road project, partly elevated, taking place north of Manila, the capital of the Philippines. The objective of the project is to provide a robust North-South road link on Luzon Island. The total length of the project exceeds 80 km.

巴特克 solution, a popular rebar splicing method in Southeast Asia.

Bartec is very popular in Asia as it offers contractors a reliable way of connecting rebar. The unique sequence of the Bartec rebar preparation, which starts by cutting/enlarging the bar end, allows for uniformity of the rebar before threading, making it reliable over time, even between different lots of bars.

Between 2015 and 2017, rebar couplers were used on the elevated segment of the North Luzon Expressway project at the top of the bridge pylons. Couplers allowed the connection between the pylons and the head of the precast beams, which will ultimately support the road.

For this application alone, more than 78,000 rebar couplers were used in diameters D28 & D36. Bartec’s range of diameters supported is one of the widest among the Dextra range; for more information, please refer to our Technical Datasheet available in the Download Section.
