Gaborone i-Towers

The i-Towers are a 3-building mix-used estate project located at the heart of the new Central Business District of Gaborone, capital city of Botswana.

The project is designed and built by Murray and Roberts Botswana and features a 21-storeys residential tower, as well as a smaller 14-storeys office building tower, a commercial building and parking spaces.

For this new Gaborone landmark, Dextra supplied its Bartec® rebar coupler solutions, which the main rebar splicing solution used in Botswana and South Africa.

Bartec is often a prefered solution for highrise projects as it is chosen for the reliability of its rebar preparation process, its performance level and the gains of productivity it offers during the reinforcement installation.

In total, those are more than 20,000 Bartec rebar couplers which have been used for columns and slabs on the two i-Towers.
