·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ

Increasingly environmentally-friendly solutions are required from the construction industry, while the practicalities and associated costs must be weighed by infrastructure owners. In this situation, there are some compelling advantages for choosing a post-tensioned approach using ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ technology.

·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ technology & benefits for the energy sector include:

• Post-tensioned concrete wind tower solutions are adaptable and durable, offering long life performance with reduced maintenance – along with the ability to produce up to 15% more energy because PT concrete towers can be 30-40m taller than their steel counterparts
• ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ VT CONA CMB band products and CONA CMG ground anchors, amongst others, are well-suited for use in the construction of windfarms
• Cryogenic LNG storage - post-tensioned concrete tanks are ideally suited to the task and comply with stringent requirements for containment structures at these very low temperatures
• ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ Network technology & expertize meets the specialist requirements of the cryogenic LNG/LPG industry, based on the ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ VT CONA CMI internal system for cryogenic applications and our highly experienced team
• The recognized adaptability and reliability of ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ prestressing systems for the post-tensioning of nuclear power plant pressure and containment vessels has made them some of the best known internationally. The ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ team has completed over 60 nuclear energy projects in 15 countries.
• In the nuclear industry, ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ post-tensioning tendons, such as the high-capacity ·¬ÇÑÓ°ÊÓ VT CONA CMI internal range with up to 73 strands, are typically used in the inner containment.
