Multi-strand post-tensioning system. Anchorage type GC

VSL designs, manufactures and installs durable, state-of-the-art post-tensioning systems that comply with international standards and approval guidelines for both new and existing structures.

Even though post-tensioning is a mature technology, it is still a fantastic tool for the design engineer as it enables the active definition of the internal load path in concrete structures by superposing a favorable state for the internal stresses.

This enables deformations to be minimized, helps reduce the thickness of members, and reduces reinforcement congestion, thus resulting in lighter structures with a reduced environmetnal impact.

VSL post-tensioning technology includes several systems that are specifically designed for different applications and requirements.

GC anchorage is the most economical VSL anchorage for multistrand applications. It is compact and easy to handle, making it ideal for internal and external tendons, in both new and exisitng structures.
