History
Milestones
DYWIDAG Post-Tensioning Systems
and Stay Cable Systems are world
renowned for reliability and performance; they are perfectly suitable
for all applications in post-tensioned
construction. They embrace the whole
spectrum from bridge construction and
buildings to civil applications both
above and below ground.
The first ever structure built with a
prototype DYWIDAG Post-Tensioning
System using Bars was the arch bridge
Alsleben (Germany) in 1927. From that
time on, DYWIDAG has continuously
improved its systems to keep up

with the growing demand of modern

construction technology.
In addition to traditional post-tensioning
systems with bars, DSI offers a
complete product line in strand posttensioning (bonded, unbonded and
external) as well as stay-cable systems
to fulfill the changing requirements in
the industry today and tomorrow.

Dependable corrosion protection

methods, damper design, fire protection, vibration measurements and
the recently developed DYNAForce
monitoring system significantly con
tribute to the longevity of modern
construction.

Our stay cable systems have always

combined the highest safety and
reliability standards with excellent
economical efficiency in their research
and development.

The DYNA Grip Stressing Anchorage

consists of an anchor block in which
the strands are anchored by high
fatigue 3 part-wedges. A ring nut
is threaded onto the anchor block
to transmit the cable force into the
structure via the bearing plate. A steel
pipe which incorporates bending and
sealing provisions for the strands is part
of the anchor block. A non-adjustable
anchorage with the same provisions for
bending and sealing of the strands can
be placed at the dead-end side.

Fatigue tests were carried out at

the Technical University of Munich
in accordance with fib Bulletin 30
requirements. The tests respected an

inclination of 0.6 even towards the

inflexible centerline and an upper load
of 0.45 GUTS. They were carried out
with a stress range of 200N/mm at 2
million load cycles.
These dynamic tests, as well as the
subsequent static tensile tests, were
performed with outstanding success.
The clevis anchorage is not only suitable for stay cable bridges, but can also
be used for arch bridge hangers where
available space in the arch is too small
for aligning ordinary fixed anchors.

DYNA Link Anchor Box System

DYWIDAGs DYNA Link Anchor Box
System is based on a conventional
steel structure in which stay cables are
anchored with standard DYNA Grip
anchorages. It features many advantages in comparison to conventional
saddle solutions in which strands are
guided through the pylon.
The key features of the DYNA Link
Anchor Box System are:
nn
No

friction problems; horizontal

forces are transferred by the anchor
box

nn
Cable

anchorages located outside

permit slender pylon shapes

nn
The

pylon does not need to be

accessible

nn
Stay

cable assembly is just as flexible

as in the case of common stay cables
with anchorages that are located
inside the pylon

nn
It

is even possible to replace a

complete strand bundle only on one
side of the pylon

nn
There

are no limitations in terms of

deviation radii or differential forces;
consequently, no limitations in any
national regulations need to be taken
into consideration

The DYNA Link Curved Anchor Box

is economically designed using conventional steel construction standards
to ensure capacity, serviceability and
excellent fatigue characteristics. Testing
is therefore not required.

14

DYNA Link Anchor Box System

15

Saddle Solution
Saddle with Individual Tubes
If strands need to be guided through
the pylon structure and a transfer of
forces by friction is required, DYWIDAG
offers a saddle in which the strands are
guided from one side of the pylon to
the other:

nn
Strands

are placed into a multitude of

individual, curved recess tubes. The
interstices between the saddle tube
and the recess tubes are grouted

nn
The

saddle itself is embedded into

concrete

nn
Individual

strands can be replaced

nn
Differential

forces are transferred by

Fully Grouted Solutions

DYNA Bond Anchorage
The DYNA Bond Anchorage consists
of a conical steel pipe (bond socket)
supporting a wedge plate in which the
strands are anchored with high-fatigue
3-part wedges. A ring nut is fitted on
the threaded end of the bond socket
and distributes the cable force through
a bearing plate into the structure.
nn
During

the construction period prior

to grouting the bond socket all the
applied loads are supported directly
by the wedges

nn
At

the final state of construction, all

additional loads (live loads, vibrations
and earthquakes) are partly resisted
by both wedges and grouted bond
socket.

nn
DYNA

Bond Anchorages have an

excellent fatigue resistance because
the bond action in the bond socket
substantially reduces the magnitude
of the dynamic loads reaching the
wedge anchorage. Fatigue tests
have proven a stress range of up to
240N/mm2 at an upper load of 45%
GUTS and 2million load cycles.

Additional Advantages:
nn
Minimized

bending effects at the

anchorage by placing an elastomeric
bearing inside the recess tube

nn
Reliable

corrosion protection for the

sensitive anchorage area, as all voids
in the anchorage zone are filled with a
stable and robust filler

nn
Enhanced

fire resistance and protection against vandalism, impact loads

and blast effects

nn
Easy

fixation of external dampers

directly on the grouted stay pipe

nn
A

special patent protected sealing

provision allows to grout the
anchorage area only so that the free
length remains without grout

DYWIDAG Stay Cables use strands that
meet the requirements of fib and PTIRecommendations for stay cables,
ASTM, BS as well as other national or
international standards.

Epoxy Coated Strands

Generally, the following types of strands

are used:

Epoxy coated strand is manufactured in

compliance with ISO14655:1999. The
3-part wedges are specially designed
for epoxy coated strands. The teeth
penetrate through the coating so that
they grip into the wires of the strand.

between wires and PE coating

nn
Diameters

up to 0.62" and steel

grades up to 1,860mm2

nn
Low

relaxation strand

Strands are anchored with specially

treated 3-part wedges that are characterized by high fatigue resistance.

tests conducted on
single-strand tendons have proven
a dynamic stress range of up to
260N/mm2 (upper stress 0.45 GUTS
at 2million load cycles).

nn
Epoxy

material reduces fretting action

between the individual wires and
cushions adjacent strands in deviation areas

nn
The

excellent bond of the epoxy

with the steel wires and the ductile
behavior of the epoxy material
eliminate the possibility of damage to
the corrosion protection barrier during
stressing

nn
Cold-drawn

7-wire strand is coated

with epoxy resin in the shop

nn
Interstices

between the 7 wires are

completely filled with epoxy resin,

Cable Damping
Slender supporting structures and
long cable lengths make stay cables
susceptible to vibrations. Big vibration
amplitudes may result in damages to
the cable due to bending and fatigue
loads. This decreases a cables
durability and may even endanger
structural safety.

22

Depending on the respective cable

parameters, each cable is more or less
prone to vibration. Longer cables are
more likely to vibrate than short ones.
Nevertheless, cables with lengths
above 200m have been installed
without additional dampers without any
vibration problems. On the other hand,
even very short cables sometimes need
dampers. By experience, DSI recommends to increase a cables inherent
damping by using additional damping
devices for cable lengths above 80m.

Cables start vibrating when they are

excited. Please find following some
excitation causes and methods for
mitigating their effects.

additional damping might not be high
enough to decrease these vibrations
to an acceptable amplitude.

affects rectangular shapes

or round shapes with asymmetry.
Ifthe wind speed is above a critical
value, vortexes detach from the
edges and create similar effects as
vortex shedding. However, contrary
to vortex shedding, galloping results
in high amplitude vibrations.

Galloping occurs at cables that

are closely spaced in wind direction.
Vortexes behind one cable excite the
cable that is next to it and lead to

alter its cross section in such a way
that galloping occurs above a critical

Rain-Wind induced Vibrations

DSI not only supplies the appropriate

damping devices but also supports
bridge designers and owners in
choosing a damping concept that is
customized to their specific project
needs.
Outer Helical Fillet

To

nn
Demonstrated

drag coefficient of

nn
During

specific combinations of rain

intensity, wind speed, wind direction
and cable inclination, water rivulets
arrange at the cables top and bottom
surface. Due to wind, they move a
few degrees around the cable circumference and induce vibrations into the
cable. This happens at relatively low
wind speeds.

Drag coefficient CD

wind flow causes turbulent

vortices to detach, alternating from a
cables top and bottom side, so that
vibrations are caused. The amplitudes
are usually small compared to the
cable diameter. However, resonance
of the vortex shedding frequency and
cable eigenfrequencies can result in
larger amplitudes.

excitation acts on other parts of the
structure (such as the pylon), and if
this vibration is transferred into the

Cable Damping
Damper Design
Sufficient damping prevents cables
from vibrating. DSI recommends
damping values of at least 34%
logarithmic decrement , depending on
each cables boundary conditions and
on project specific requirements. These
damping values can usually not be
achieved by inherent cable damping so
that additional damping is required.
External Viscous Damper
External viscous dampers provide very
effective supplementary damping.

Magnetic Flux Leakage

Inspection
Magnetic flux leakage inspection is a
non-destructive testing method that
detects changing magnetic properties.
DSI uses this method to determine
corrosion, breaks or cuts to strands.
Magnetic flux leakage inspection
is a very economic and fast testing
procedure:
nn
The

equipment can be adapted to fit

different pipe diameters

nn
Only

the deck anchorage needs

to be accessible for mounting the
equipment. The measuring equipment
is moved by hoists and winches in
the free cable length, thus minimizing
traffic disturbances

nn
The

whole strand bundle can be

magnetized, which allows checking
even strands on the inside

There is no need to remove HDPE

sheathing: The equipment moves
along the pipes, and the magnetic field
permeates the HDPE sheathing.
