How can Post Tensioning help you?
Engineer
Post tensioning offers an effective and flexible solution in engineering design in the construction, remedial and demolition phases.
Contractor
Contractors can achieve increased speed of construction and reduced costs by using post tensioning to reduce materials required on site
Developer
Reduced material requirements and subsequent lower floor depths ensures developers get the lowest cost solution for their builds
Architect
Post tensioning allows architects to deliver their vision by offering fewer restrictions when compared to other off site techniques.
