Post-Tensioned Concrete Structure Repair & Maintenance Services

OPEN 24/7

Post-tensioning concrete systems

Our company has been carrying out renovation and construction work in the states of Texas and Colorado for more than 15 years. Our specialization is concrete work, and we can solve any issues related to the creation, research, repair and maintenance of various products and coatings made of concrete and other solid building materials. Our company has not only a staff of highly qualified workers and designers but also its own specialized equipment.

Post-tensioning concrete systems are a relatively new but already very popular technology that can significantly improve the technical performance characteristics of the finished structure. Structural strengthening of concrete slabs and other products makes it possible to significantly save on material consumption and create parts and structural elements of lower mass, thickness and volume while maintaining a high degree of strength characteristics.

Post-tensioning has proven to be a highly efficient technology that requires competent calculations and strict adherence to the plan when implementing it in construction. The use of post-tensioning in the creation of concrete structures assumes that construction and engineering personnel have the appropriate degree of qualification, responsibility and training, since the success of the structure in the future depends on the correct placement, fastening, and tension of metal parts (reinforcement, anchors, cables).

Contractors who are responsible for the continued operation of post-tensioned structures must also have a sufficient level of knowledge and qualifications. Existing knowledge about the specifics of the work, as well as correctly applied skills, guarantee that the safety of the structure itself as well as the personnel serving it will be ensured.



Advantages of post-tensioning concrete technology


The popularity of this technological scenario is explained by the fact that, with the help of a post-tensioning system for concrete structures, it is possible to achieve progress and higher performance in several directions at once:
• Post-tensioning of concrete minimizes the number of cracks that appear as it shrinks. This allows you to save time on grouting joints because there will be fewer of them.
• The resulting cracks retain their original dimensional characteristics. They do not tend to increase over time.
• The creation of post-tensioning systems makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the slabs. At the same time, the product is able to carry the same load. As a result, there is a saving in building materials: concrete and metal.
• Post-tensioned structures can be made in a wider range of sizes, for example, spans can be made physically wider. Crossbars can also be made with a wider span.
• The technology allows the construction of high-rise buildings and significantly adds convenience to the construction of bridges.
• The use of post-tensioned concrete systems makes it possible to make construction more budget-friendly and save money.

Post-tensioning concrete systems make it possible to implement the most daring architectural projects, which are not possible to build using conventional technology. The use of these principles of structural strengthening makes it possible to reduce the construction budget, but at the same time, it requires a more qualified team of engineers and workers.
 


Repair and maintenance of post-stressed concrete systems


Our company's specialists have sufficient qualifications and knowledge to carry out maintenance, carry out concrete repairs, and perform structural assessments of structures. And also organize the supply of all necessary specialized products for their owners, contractor companies and engineering staff.

The team consists of highly qualified professionals with extensive experience in such work. All of our field crews and project teams are Post Tension Institute (PTI) certified. We know firsthand what the quality standards for repair and maintenance work are, and we understand that no matter how strict the technical rules are, they must be strictly adhered to. That is why we can carry out all concrete repairs and strengthening of concrete structures without compromising their structural integrity, observing safety precautions for workers, or taking care of the safety of the environment.
Our post-tensioned concrete repair services are available to customers in Colorado and Wyoming. We are willing to travel 100 miles or more just to help our customers. Our clients include both private homeowners and large manufacturing and trading enterprises, construction contractors, and repair organizations.
 


Safety and pre-planning


The preparatory stage is the most important part of the overall work on concrete, so we devote all the necessary time to it. The company's project engineers develop a thorough strategy for each individual case, and the maintenance and repair of post-tensioned concrete structures is no exception.

Preliminary planning necessarily includes the elaboration of the scope of work based on a real assessment of the situation after a team of our specialists has visited the site. Based on the inspection, measurements and analyses, the company’s specialists draw up a preliminary plan based on such aspects as:
• assessment of work safety: for post-tensioned structures; for the environment; the ability to carry out work without traumatic consequences for the repair team;
• technological nuances of the concrete repair and maintenance services provided;
• step-by-step work plan;
• technical support of the plan: necessary equipment, number of workers, ensuring logistics of the event;
• budgeting for post-stressed concrete work, including costs for the preliminary stage, cargo logistics, movement and provision of personnel involved in the event.

Only after the preliminary plan has been drawn up and calculated will it be possible to talk about its implementation in practice. This balanced approach gives us the opportunity to minimize disruptions and reduce the risk of potential disruption to schedules to almost zero.

The company has the right number of qualified work crews to ensure the fulfillment of orders throughout Colorado and Wyoming. We complete projects within the deadlines agreed upon with clients, strictly adhering to planned work schedules.

Here are some post-stressed concrete jobs we have completed for our clients:

01

Creating a foundation from scratch.

We hired a contractor to dig a pit. The formwork, pouring, laying of cables, and covering of the foundation slab were carried out on our ownreating a foundation from scratch. We hired a contractor to dig a pit. The formwork, pouring, laying of cables, and covering of the foundation slab were carried out on our own

FAQ

Are you pouring new post-tensioned concrete structures?

Yes, we can create for you a strong foundation, slab or other product built using a post-tensioned concrete system.

Should I call an expert before calling you for repairs?

No, you don’t need to call anyone separately. Our team has all the necessary specialists. We will conduct a structural assessment, perform all the necessary calculations, and even conduct a stress analysis if required. We will provide comprehensive concrete work.

Why is a post-stressed concrete system better than a conventional system?

Using corrosion-resistant anchors and tension cables can make your concrete structure thinner and stronger than normal. This saves a lot on building materials and components (concrete mix, fittings). In addition, post-tensioning concrete allows us to open up new possibilities in construction and architecture, realizing projects that were previously impossible.

How effective is repairing a post-concrete structure? Does this make sense?

Absolutely - it does. We will assess the situation, analyze the scope of work, and perform all the necessary calculations. Our company’s repair services will allow you to restore the performance characteristics of your concrete; the structure will serve you for many years.

What post-stressed concrete repair services can you provide?

We will conduct a structural assessment and condition analysis, then agree on an estimate with you and do everything necessary to restore your concrete to its normal condition. We can repair cracks, replace tendons, repair anchors, seal and grout cracks, strengthen structures, protect metal from corrosion, and much more. You will not need to involve any other concrete specialists if you contact us.
