Post-Tensioning Repairs and Modifications
Presented by Pete Barlow, Contech Services, Inc.
The presentation will present an overview of typical causes of post tensioning failures such as errant core drillers, concrete saws, improper installation during original construction and poor protection of post tensioning. There are numerous challenges that a repair contractor faces when they are required to expose either failed or active post tensioning systems. With the current active building economy; structures are being constructed more quickly and many building are being repurposed. This can lead to construction problems and or requirements to modify existing post tensioning systems. Many of the traditional post tensioning repair process are employed to modify post tensioning systems. This overview will touch on causes, techniques and methods of handling post tensioning in a variety of conditions.

Muito BOM ! Parabéns !!! Já encontrei algumas dessas situações !
Great information. I have a specific project on a post tension home that I didn’t know was a post tension home until I broke into the concrete and found anchors. Is it possible to expose cables further back into the concrete, place new anchors around live cable, then cut off the excess to remove the concrete? This is for a back porch I want to remove that is part of the original foundation. It has cracked several times over the years and I want to replace it with a deck. The house itself has piers to bedrock around the entire perimeter.
Hello there! Thank you for such an instructor video, do you guys do any work in Las Vegas or anyone you recommend?
Sounds like installing this system is more trouble then it's worth. Looks and sounds like a trash system. $10,000 they just found a way to screw u through your dlab
