Post-tensioning system - Post-tension - Alga Cable T15
Alga Cable T15 system put at designers and companies disposal a wide range of cables, manufactured from 0,6” strands of normal production, which are able to cover the stressing forces and the anchorage types widely required by the actual post-tensioning technology. Cables of low or high capacity and
special anchorages can be produced to satisfy specific design requirements.
The essential points that characterize and distinguish Alga Cable T15 Post- Tensioning Systems are:
Compact anchorages with casting units, without conical shapes, with more distribution surfaces, slots with hexagonal encasing to make their laying easier
Linking cones for normal and enlarged ducts
Arrangement for frontal or lateral grouting
More space for reinforcing and concreting in the end block
Advanced tensioning jacks with an integrated main pulling area, the smallest and lightest available in their field
The reduction of the tensioning jacks sizes allow moreover:
smaller deviation of the cable
smaller auxiliary reinforcement
lower friction losses
recesses of smaller dimensions in the concrete
Their light weight facilitates their handling and installation on the anchorages and, if needed,
simpler auxiliary equipment can be used for their displacement.
