Four large diameter soft eyes have been installed in the diaphragm wall cages of the new Singapore MRT Marine Terrace Station during August 2017.
Soft-Eye 由 GFRP 钢筋制成，用于替代施工竖井 D 墙中的钢筋。当隧道掘进机 (TBM) 突破 D 形墙时，它可以轻松切割 GFRP 钢筋，从而节省项目进度时间和设备使用费用。
自 1998 年在曼谷地铁项目首次使用以来，Dextra 一直是该应用的先驱，并且在 Soft-Eye 的内部设计和制造方面拥有丰富的经验。
The D-Walls installed on Terrace Station also feature Bartec® rebar couplers, a common application which allows for the horizontal re-connection of the station slabs.
