Definition of Post Tensioning Concrete - Post-tensioning is a method of reinforcing (strengthening) concrete or other materials with high-strength steel strands or bars, typically referred to as tendons. Post-tensioning is a form of prestressing. Prestressing simply means that the steel is stressed (pulled or tensioned) before the concrete has to support the service loads. Most precast, prestressed concrete is actually pre-tensioned-the steel is pulled before the concrete is poured…

When tensioned and locked-off to the anchors, this post-tensioned system increases the load the slab can bear and reduces "sag" by lifting the slab and counteracting forces that could be pushing down on the slab and cause it to crack. This allows our concrete spans to increase to over 12 metres of clear open space and the actual slab thickness by around 30cm a floor (6 floors) to decrease overall building height.

We have a lot to say Merci to the French for...the croissant, the baguette, the company that makes our lunch every day and the rather clever system of "post tension" construction we are using to build this building. This system of post-tensioning was pioneered by a Mr Eugène Freyssinet in 1933 for the foundation of a marine terminal in France and is now used extensively all over the world in bridges, elevated residential or commercial buildings, foundations, walls, and columns.
