- Prestressing is a
method of inducing known permanent stresses in a structure or member
before the full or live load is applied.
- These stresses are
induced by
tensioning the High Tensile Strands, wires or rods, and then
anchored to the member being Prestressed, by mechanical means.
- The High Tensile
wires/strands, when bunched together are called Cables. These
cables are generally placed inside a cylindrical duct made out of
either metallic or HDPE material. The Anchorages, one of the main
components of the Prestressing
activity, are used to anchor the H.T. Cable after inducing the Load.
The whole assembly of the Anchorage and the H.T. Cable is named as
‘TENDON’.
- Prestressing is widely
used for long span beams and Bridges
- Application of
Prestressing in building construction also facilitates
a larger span between the columns
- Prestressing is also
very widely used in the construction of Mega Structures like
Containment Wall of Nuclear Reactors, LNG Storage Tanks, Cement
Silos, Chimneys, Dams and Rock Anchors
- Prestressing Steels
are best known as the High Tensile Steel Wires, Strand or Bars and
are available in various sizes and configurations to impart a range
of UTS
- Prestressing steel
stressed and embedded in concrete losses a part of its initial
tension, as times goes by. This loss is known as “stress
relaxation”, and must be taken care of in the design of prestressed
structures
- PC strand consists of
multiple steel wires wound together to produce a strong, flexible
product that is used to strengthen concrete structures. It is
commonly available in three grades, in covered and uncovered form,
and in several nominal diameters
- India imported pc
strand wire worth USD 1,135,940 under HS Code 7312 with total
quantity of 1,037,419. Spain is the largest supplier of pc strand
wire accounting for imports worth USD 628,752 followed by South
Africa and China which exported pc strand wire worth USD 321,872 and
USD 165,439 respectively.
- There is good scope
for the manufacturing of these products in view of large domestic
demand as clearly seen by the imports into India
