Architects, Structural Engineers, General Contractors, Real Estate Developers, and Owners incorporate post-tensioning systems on their projects in order to achieve economy, efficiency, quicker construction and lower lifetime cost of the structure. Why? Because Post-Tensioning enhances concrete strength under both compressive and tensile stresses.
Post-tensioning tendons are installed in a parabolic profile prior to placing the concrete and later stressed to a specified concrete strength. This process introduces both compressive forces in the concrete and stresses that counterbalance service loads. The benefits are substantial.
Post-tensioning frequently solves design and construction challenges that other construction methods simply cannot. Some key advantages include:
MATERIAL SAVINGS
QUICKER CONSTRUCTION
INCREASED PERFORMANCE
REDUCED LIFETIME COSTS
AMSYSCO provides cost-effective post-tensioning solutions across a wide range of structures and applications such as condominiums and apartments, office buildings, parking garages, hospitals, schools, slab-on-ground, storage tanks, stadiums, repair and restoration, barrier cable, special structures and applications.
