SAS reinforcing systems are widely used throughout the world in structural engineering as well as building and road construction.
The systems consist of hot-rolled SAS thread bars and accessories and are available in the grades SAS 500/550, SAS 550/620 and SAS 555/700. The optimally suited and versatile accessories are used to couple bars and minimize anchorage lengths by means of special reinforcement end anchorages that can also be installed in difficult application conditions.
The thread bars of our SAS reinforcing systems have been tried and proven for decades and now play an indispensable role in modern reinforced concrete construction.
They have been successfully installed in numerous reinforced concrete structures, e.g. in the ADAC building in Munich (FRG), Berlin Government Building (FRG), ballastless track (track supporting slabs) of the Nürnberg & Erfurt ICE high speed tracks (FRG) and in the Rheinfelden hydroelectric power station (FRG).
The Varsow Tower – the tallest building in the EU – with a reinforced concrete structure up to 230 meters in height.
The Tokamak is an experimental machine that harnesses the energy of fusion. ITER will be the largest Tokamak in the world.
Due to the high dynamic loads of the Capital Gate Tower, the load-bearing walls of the building are reinforced and prestressed with SAS prestressing bars 835/1035.
The high-strength threaded steels SAS 670/800 were used for the cast-in-place concrete inner columns and precast edge columns of the high-rise building (building height approx. 90 m).
On the site of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, destroyed on September 11, 2001, a memorial and four new towers (1 WTC to 4 WTC) have been constructed.
The Lotte Tower, standing at 555 m with the highest observation deck at 497.6 m, is currently the second tallest building in Asia.
