Tension Rods for Solar Power Plants


Date: 2022 - November
Location: Turkey


Investments on sustainable energy field has been increasing due to the increasing energy cost and adverse effects of fossil fuels on the environment. Solar Power Plant investments have been gaining significant share in sustainable energy generation. Tekbem, together with its business partner Macalloy, has supported Solar Power Plant investments in Turkey supplying tension rods. Macalloy 460 grade M30 tension rods have been used to reinforce the steel structure supporting the main building.

Tension rods supporting the steel construction that supports the main building have been placed diagonally between the supports. Tension rods have been designed to intercross as per requests from architectural and static designers of the project. We have worked in collaboration with the client, architect, static designer and manufacturer on the specifications, connection details and capacities of tension rods during the design phase and delivered the products within the optimum time. Architectural tension rods have given the steel structure an elegant and aesthetic look.

We are very happy to be a part of Solar Power Plant projects that have great impact on the future of Turkey and to support companies working in this area.
