When fitting additional prestressing tendons to existing structures, attachments
(sheaves) and deviation points need to be created. The anchoring systems for the ends
of the tendons are fitted to the sheaves, while the main runs are guided through the
deviation points. In this case, Freyssibar prestressing bars are used to fix the sheaves to
the existing structure that needs strengthening by generating a transverse nailing force
that creates the necessary friction between each sheaf and the structure.

Connection with a foundation
Micropiles and prestressing bars can be combined to create a simple and effective
foundation for an existing or prefabricated structure.
The prestressing bars create a friction joint between the structure and the sole
plate, which is built on micropiles, without any need for a complex and dense rebar
arrangement.

Construction of bridge decks
Fixing brackets
The principle for transferring the load from a bracket to a structure through friction can
be achieved with the Freyssibar or Freyssibar+ system. During this process, controlling
the applied forces is essential for the joint's performance and safety of the structure.
Frequent applications
Jacking structures | Widening pier caps and decks | Balconies
Prestressed structures
The Freyssibar and Freyssibar+ systems are widely used to create prestressed structures,
especially for repairs and strengthening.

Flat anchors
These anchors are comprised of a straight nut, washer and
anchor plate. They are used in most cases. When injecting
the bar duct, a groove in the anchor plate allows the injection

Implementation
For many years, Freyssinet has been offering a training and qualification
programme for technicians and engineers working on prestressing projects,
called the “PT Academy“.
Installation equipment
Freyssinet has created Freyssimat, an entity that focuses specifically on maintaining and servicing
the company's installation equipment (jacks, hydraulic pumps, mixers, etc.). Customers can rest
assured that the equipment provided is always compliant with standards and calibrated according
to applicable regulations.
