What is Post-tensioning, why, when and how ??

01-What is Post-tensioning:

A method of prestressing in which the tendons are tensioned after the concrete has hardened and the prestressing force is primarily transferred to the concrete through the end anchorages.

01-What is Post-tensioning:

A method of prestressing in which the tendons are tensioned after the concrete has hardened and the prestressing force is primarily transferred to the concrete through the end anchorages.

02-Why do we post-tension?

The function of post-tensioning is to place the concrete structure under compression in those regions where load causes tensile stress. Post-tensioning applies a compressive stress on the material, which offsets the tensile stress the concrete might face under loading.

03-When is the right time to post-tension?

When you do post-tensioning, it is very important to know the real-time temperature and strength of your concrete,

If you tension your tendons too early, this can lead to cracking, so knowing the right strength at the moment is critical.

04-How can I know what is the real-time strength of my in-situ concrete?

If you use #Concremote, the real-time compressive strength monitoring device, you will receive notification to your mobile and , this will enable you to take the right decision at the right time regarding your post-tension project, without the need of going to the site to collect data or measurements, saving you a lot of time and money.

Post tension anchor heads

Post tension anchor heads
We are a professional company which has produced post tension anchorpost tension anchor heads for more than ten years. Post tension anchor heads have been widely adopted by concrete structure construction, especially used in post-tension for concrete constructions as building materials, such as bridge construction, road construction, railway and highway construction, buildings and channel construction, etc.
Post tension anchor heads are permanent anchoring device used in post-tensioned structures or components to maintain the tensile force of prestressed tendons and transfer them to mixed tension in post-tensioned structures or members. Also known as prestressed anchors. The tensioning end anchor is composed of four parts: wedges, anchor ring, anchor bearing plate and spiral reinforcement. 
Our post tension anchor heads include 12.7mm or 15.24mm round anchor heads and flat anchor heads. The round anchor head is made by 45# high-quality carbon construction steel, and the flat anchorage is made by 40Cr steel. The round anchor heads have 1-55 strands for option, the flat anchorage have 2-5 strands for option. 
Wedge is the key part of anchor system, which is made by high-class alloy steel 20CrMnTi. Its form is divided into two parts and three parts. It can be used for
The post-tensioning method is a method of pouring concrete first and then tensioning the reinforcement. When making a component or block, pre-stressed holes are placed in the place where the prestress is placed. After the concrete reaches the strength specified in the design, the prestressed ribs are inserted into the reserved holes and the prestressed ribs are stretched to After designing the prescribed control stress, the prestressed tendons are anchored at the end of the component with the aid of post tension anchor heads, and finally the hole grouting is performed.
The method of applying pre-compressive stress to the tension zone of the concrete member is to stretch the pre-stressed steel bar in the tension zone, and transfer the elastic shrinkage force of the pre-stressed steel bar to the prestressed steel bar through the bonding force or anchor In concrete members, prestressing stress is generated. This delays the appearance of concrete cracks, and also limits the development of cracks, thereby improving the crack resistance and rigidity of the component.
The post-tensioning method is suitable for the on-site production of large-scale prestressed components, special structures and structures, and can also be used as a prestressed component assembly method. Superiority of post tension anchor heads:
1. Easy to use. The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, light weight, reliable work and convenient installation and maintenance.
2. High work efficiency and better quality than other domestic products.
3. Durable. Small size, high efficiency, good quality and durability.
Application of post tension anchor heads:
1. Railway: High degree of automation and high production efficiency, making production and processing easy and efficient.
2. Hydropower: simple structure, light weight and small size.
3. High-rise building: reliable work, easy installation and maintenance.
4. Highway: It can be used repeatedly for the use of long prestressed tendons, which can be used repeatedly and save costs.
Before we send quotation, please let us know the following items:
1. What's diameter do you want? 12.7mm or 15.24mm?
2. How many strands do you stress by one complete of anchor system?
3. For a complete set of anchor system, do you need two sets, three sets or four sets? 
4. Do you need round(circular) anchor or flat anchor?
5. What is the quantity of each kinds do you need?
