Post-tensioned flat slabs for building construction
slabs for building construction The principle of post-tensioned concrete is used for post-tensioned flat slabs. The term post-tensioned concrete is used when a compressive stress is applied to the concrete through the use of prestressing steel. This technology can be used in almost all types of buildings [...] Post-tensioned flat slabs are slabs made of post-tensioned concrete. By using tendons, compressive stresses are applied to the concrete. This so-called post-tensioning ensures that no or only low tensile stresses occur in the concrete, which concrete can generally only absorb to a small extent. As a result [...] between unbonded and bonded post-tensioning. 4 Key Benefits Flexibility Post-tensioned concrete allows a significant increase in spans and leads to a reduction of columns compared to conventional reinforced concrete. Furthermore, the use of post-tensioned flat slabs allows improved aesthetic and economic
