Concrete Volume and Post-Tensioning
Recently, a concrete contractor called me to find out the volume of our unbonded post-tensioning system within an elevated concrete deck. He wanted to find out how much concrete was NOT used due to the volume-displacement from the post-tensioning tendons. … Continue reading
Post Tension Friction-Loss Calculations
The friction-loss calculations are important submittals for post-tensioning tendons. The calculations determine what the tendon’s final force is after short-term and long-term friction losses. The key input parameters for “Long-Term Losses” are as follows: Post-Tensioning System (Unbonded or Bonded) Type … Continue reading
