Post-tensioning in Building Structures

This paper outlines the major advantages of the use of post-tensioning in building structures. Economics of the post-tensioning slab system are discussed including relative material contents, speed of construction, and factors affecting the cost of post-tensioning.

Practical Prestress Detailing

This presentation will only cover bonded post-tensioning, because Structural Systems do not claim to be knowledgeable about pre-tensioning nor about unbonded systems (as used in Europe & North America).

Slab System Concrete Requirements for Early Age Stressing

Post-tensioned concrete relies upon the transfer of the prestressing force into the surrounding concrete. This process occurs early in the life of a structure and therefore the specification of the concrete performance is critical.

Standard Slab System Helical Anchorage Reinforcement

Post-tensioning of concrete relies on the transfer of the stressing force from the high tensile steel tendons to the surrounding concrete. This is achieved by the use of post-tensioning anchorages.
