 Post‐Tensioning Solution

Benefits of Post‐Tensioned Slab

Long Span (9~10m)
1) Reduced Floor Height
‐ Maintain Typical 2.8m Height
2.8m
2) Longer Span
‐ 210mm PT Flat Plate  →  L=9.5m (L/45)
3) Lesser Weight
210 mm (8 ¼ in) SLAB
‐ Reduce CO2 Emission
‐ Improve Seismic Performance
4) Improved Durability
‐ Reduce Crack & Deflection
5) Saving Material & Money
‐ Reduce Concrete  and Rebar Quantity

 SUMMARY

1) Slight increase in construction cost by Post‐Tensioning in Korean market
can be negligible. (+0.8%)

2) [ALT 3] Post‐Tensioned Slab can be good alternative floor system for
Residential Buildings in Korea.
‐ Provide more open span with longer span 8.3m 
‐ Maintain the same slab depth 210mm with conventional design [ALT 1]
‐ Maintain the same floor height 2.8m with conventional design [ALT 1]

3) In the future, it seems like that increasing demand for Post‐Tensioning can 
lower the tendon price, thereby Post‐Tensioning can be more competitive in 
Korea.
