PRESTRESSED GIRDER MOULDS

Prestressed girder molds are an important tool in the construction industry for creating strong, durable, and reliable structural components. These molds are used to create prestressed girders, which are reinforced concrete beams that have been pre-tensioned or post-tensioned with steel strands or bars.

The use of prestressed girders has become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to withstand heavy loads and long spans. These girders are commonly used in the construction of bridges, high-rise buildings, and other structures that require a high level of strength and durability.

To create prestressed girders, steel strands or bars are pre-tensioned or post-tensioned within a mold that is typically made of steel or fiberglass. These strands or bars are stretched to a predetermined tension level and then anchored to the mold. Once the concrete is poured into the mold, the tensioned strands or bars are released.
