What is post-tensioning?
Post-tensioning is a method of reinforcing concrete with high-strength steel tendons, which are pulled tight after the concrete has hardened. This process puts the concrete into compression, making it stronger and more crack-resistant. The technique allows for longer spans, thinner slabs, and better structural performance.
What are the advantages of post-tensioning?
Post-tensioning offers numerous benefits including longer spans, thinner slabs, reduced cracking, and improved structural performance. Learn about all the advantages in our detailed guide.
Should I retrofit or tear down my post-tensioned structure?
This comprehensive guide helps you make informed decisions about retrofitting versus rebuilding your post-tensioned structure, potentially saving millions in construction costs.
What's the difference between prestressing and post-tensioning?
Understand the key differences between pretensioning and post-tensioning, including when each method is most appropriate for your construction project.
