Unbonded PT Slab Design

Unbonded PT slab design is a single-strand system. Its applications include slabs-on-grade, structural mats and raft footings, circular fluid tanks and tilt up walls. Because the unbounded tendon is small in diameter as well as light and flexible, it can make maximum use of the entire depth of concrete slab, making it particularly well suited to thin slabs, and the time and the cost associated with grouting is eliminated.

Unbonded post-tensioned slab concrete differs from bonded Post Tensioned (Concrete) Slab by providing each individual cable permanent freedom of movement relative to the concrete. To achieve this, each individual tendon is coated with grease (generally lithium based) and covered by a plastic sheathing formed in an extrusion process. The transfer of tension to the concrete is achieved by the steel cable acting against steel Anchor Plate embedded in the perimeter of the slab. The main disadvantage over bonded post-tensioning is the fact that a cable can distress itself and burst out of the slab if damaged (such as during repair on the slab).
