The Wasl Tower is a 302m super-high-rise structure in downtown Dubai, surrounded by the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and the new City Walk Development.

The tower will feature the world’s tallest ceramic façade, which will help regulate the internal temperature of the building while also reducing surrounding noise.

Moreover, vertical gardens and several shading and cooling design innovations will further minimize the building’s overall carbon footprint.

The project will comprise offices, residential areas, serviced apartments, and a 5-star Mandarin Oriental hotel, along with bars, restaurants, a spa, and a swimming pool.

Aufgrund des Tragwerkskonzepts aus drei 300 m hohen Kernwänden, die mit vier großen Auslegern verbunden sind, sind leistungsstarke Bewehrungskupplungen erforderlich, um Betonträger und -stützen zu verstärken und zu verbinden.

More than 280,000 Bartec standard couplers, weldable couplers, headed bars, and RepairGrip swaged couplers were delivered for this purpose.
