Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to post-tensioned, pre-stressed concrete construction.
  • the present disclosure relates specifically to a post tensioning tendon with anchors for use therein.
  • Many structures are built using concrete, including, for instance, buildings, parking structures, apartments, condominiums, hotels, mixed-use structures, casinos, hospitals, medical buildings, government buildings, research/academic institutions, industrial buildings, malls, roads, bridges, pavement, tanks, reservoirs, silos, sports courts, and other structures.
  • Prestressed concrete is structural concrete in which internal stresses are introduced to reduce potential tensile stresses in the concrete resulting from applied loads; prestressing may be accomplished by post-tensioned prestressing or pre-tensioned prestressing.
  • prestressing may be accomplished by post-tensioned prestressing or pre-tensioned prestressing.
  • a tension member is tensioned after the concrete has attained a desired strength by use of a post-tensioning tendon.
  • the post-tensioning tendon may include for example and without limitation, anchor assemblies, the tension member, and sheathes.
  • a tension member is constructed of a material that can be elongated and may be a single or a multi-strand cable.
  • the tension member may be formed from a metal or composite material, such as reinforced steel.
  • the post-tensioning tendon conventionally includes an anchor assembly at each end.
  • the post-tensioning tendon is fixedly coupled to a fixed anchor assembly positioned at one end of the post-tensioning tendon, the "fixed-end”, and stressed at the stressed anchor assembly positioned at the opposite end of the post-tensioning tendon, the "stressing-end" of the post-tensioning tendon.
  • Post-tension members are conventionally formed from a strand and a sheath.
  • the strand is conventionally formed as a single or multi-strand metal cable.
  • the strand is conventionally encapsulated within a polymeric sheath extruded thereabout to, for example, prevent or retard corrosion of the metal strand by protecting the metal strand from exposure to corrosive or reactive fluids.
  • the sheath may prevent or retard concrete from bonding to the strand and preventing or restricting movement of the sheath during post-tensioning.
  • the sheath may be filled with grease to further limit the exposure of the metal strand and allow for increased mobility.
  • the thermal expansion and contraction rates of the metal strand and polymeric sheath may differ.
  • the sheaths are formed by hot extrusion over the metal strand.
  • uneven thermal contraction may occur as the tendon cools.
  • cooling of the sheath may cause separation of the sheath from an anchorage, potentially exposing the metal strand to corrosive or reactive fluids.
  • CH651619 discloses a recoverable formwork part for the anchoring area of a tension member anchorage in a concrete structural part with an anchor body which has a central passage for the tensioning member consisting of a tubular sleeve surrounding the tensioning member in the installed state with a cup-shaped recessed part which can be connected to the formwork of the concrete component, wherein the sleeve forms a guide for the tensioning member over a range of its length, the formwork at the outlet end of the tensioning member and can be fastened thereto, and in that the recess-forming part is arranged in the region of the entire length of the sleeve.

  • the cup member and the anchor member are positioned on an opposite side of the form board. A tendon extends through the tubular member.
  • US8069624 discloses pocketformer apparatus for post-tension construction has an anchor member with an interior passageway, a tubular member extending into the interior passageway, a cup member with an interior opening in which the tubular member extends through the interior opening, and a securement member affixed adjacent the opposite end of the tubular member from the anchor body.
  • the interior passageway has a threaded portion.
  • the tubular member has a first end retained in the threaded portion.
  • the tubular member has the second end extending outwardly of a side of the anchor body opposite the threaded portion.
  • the cup member is interposed between the securement member and the anchor member.
  • a form board is interposed between the cup member and the securement member.
  • the threaded portion is an internal thread formed on an non-tapered portion of the interior passageway.
