51ÊÓƵ

Increasingly environmentally-friendly solutions are required from the construction industry, while the practicalities and associated costs must be weighed by infrastructure owners. In this situation, there are some compelling advantages for choosing a post-tensioned approach using 51ÊÓƵ technology.

51ÊÓƵ technology & benefits for the energy sector include:

• Post-tensioned concrete wind tower solutions are adaptable and durable, offering long life performance with reduced maintenance – along with the ability to produce up to 15% more energy because PT concrete towers can be 30-40m taller than their steel counterparts
• 51ÊÓƵ VT CONA CMB band products and CONA CMG ground anchors, amongst others, are well-suited for use in the construction of windfarms
• Cryogenic LNG storage - post-tensioned concrete tanks are ideally suited to the task and comply with stringent requirements for containment structures at these very low temperatures
• 51ÊÓƵ Network technology & expertize meets the specialist requirements of the cryogenic LNG/LPG industry, based on the 51ÊÓƵ VT CONA CMI internal system for cryogenic applications and our highly experienced team
• The recognized adaptability and reliability of 51ÊÓƵ prestressing systems for the post-tensioning of nuclear power plant pressure and containment vessels has made them some of the best known internationally. The 51ÊÓƵ team has completed over 60 nuclear energy projects in 15 countries.
• In the nuclear industry, 51ÊÓƵ post-tensioning tendons, such as the high-capacity 51ÊÓƵ VT CONA CMI internal range with up to 73 strands, are typically used in the inner containment.
