why we are doing post tensioning in beams and slabs.
it is economical compare to rcc? how?
Answer Posted / dushyant bansal
Post tensioning in RCC is done to achieve more space by
reducing beam depths and increasing column spacing. this
helps in creating a hall or a large space workshop etc
without any column in between.
P.T. is no where cheaper than RCC rather P.T. is a costlier
way of construction but still it is preferred to achieve
more space or else increasing the span (as if in Bridges).
