Post Tension
Grouting works
The strength and serviceability of a structure are compromised if post-tensioned tendons are not grouted or are poorly grouted. Our team at CES offers full forensic investigations to discover any non-compliant grouting and re-grouts the tendons in a variety of ways.
Grout can be reinstated by hand pumps, powered pumps, or by using a vacuum where access is difficult or restricted.
Post-Tension System has been the core of CES since its beginning. The following are the advantages of post-tensioned method over conventional concrete construction and our post tension design and construct expertise.
- Economical: It is very important to maintain quality and deliver cost effective projects. With the help of post-
tensioning system, we can reduce other construction material costs such as concrete, reinforcement
bars and increase clear heights between floors which allows to fit additional floors that can add more
value to the project. - Innovative: Post-tension system allows increasing spans and reducing the number of columns with maintaining
deflection criteria of slabs as per Standard requirements.
Post-tension slabs can be designed as waterproof by providing sufficient residual stress to obviate
usage of waterproofing membrane. - Design: CES has some brilliant minds when it comes to engineering design. Our designers have the ability to customize slabs to offer best combination of concrete, reinforcement bar, post-tension and to avoid unnecessary tedious formwork development, to offer the most economical and smart project to our valued clients through post tension design and construct.
Tendon Truncations in Concrete Removal
Post-tension truncations are required when voids or penetrations are being cut out of an existing post tension slab.
Truncation techniques allows to incorporate new lifts, stairs, travellators, mechanical penetrations in existing post-tension structure without compromising the structure’s strength.
CES offers a complete design review, investigation and on-site truncation works including post tension truncations works.
