Strengthening with External Post-Tensioning Systems
STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES’ external post-tensioning systems utilize high strength strands or bars to offset deficiencies and deflections in structures. External post-tensioning is ideal for situations that require deflection control, significant load capacity improvement or have long spans.

ReinforceABLE™ External Post-Tensioning Systems
Systems featuring post-tensioning tendons externally attached to the structural element at anchor points. Uplift forces are introduced to the member at specific locations along its span. By controlling the tendon’s profile along the member, the desired level of capacity improvement is achieved.
