Prestressing Powerhouse: Pre- vs. Post-Tensioning In prestressed concrete, we fight cracks with tensioned steel tendons! But when do we add the tension? Pre-tensioning: We stretch the tendons BEFORE pouring concrete. Think of it like a pre-emptive strike! This is ideal for precast elements. Post-tensioning: The tendons chill in ducts within the concrete until it cures. Then, we JACK UP the tension! ️ This is great for larger structures built on-site. Both methods create super strong concrete! #civilengineering #prestressedconcrete #construction

Wasting time and budget in the process of construction of concrete structures of buildings and bridges refers to the common problem of inefficiency and excessive cost in traditional methods of constructing concrete structures. This can occur due to a variety of factors, such as the need for numerous stirrups and rebars, which can be time-consuming and expensive to install, or inaccurate loading calculations, which can cause delays and require costly rework. Stirrup Surface technique offers a solution to this problem by simplifying the construction process and reducing the amount of material needed, resulting in a more efficient and cost-effective approach to building concrete structures.

Two of our engineers (Brian and Shawn) had the pleasure of being a part of this cost study. Their research highlights how strategic layouts for certain structural materials can lead to significant benefits and efficiencies. #MasonryDesign #EchelonEngineering #StructuralEngineering
A not-to-be missed construction-cost comparison! 3 different systems, load-bearing masonry, cast-in-place concrete, and wood frame, for a prototype multi-residential buliding typical of Atlantic Canada, including full design, scheduling, and cost analysis by 3rd-party firms. 👉👀 Download the full report here: https://lnkd.in/ggcwvzC7

We all know that an insulated solid wall construction method like ICF is incredibly strong thanks to its concrete core. But did you know, it’s possible to make it even stronger! Add rebar into the block before the concrete pour and you can easily use the build system for areas which need additional strength such as basements or cantilever structures. #BuildingStrength #ICF #ConcreteWalls https://lnkd.in/ecEAERvG

Concrete spacers! This kind of spacers can be used efficiently in concrete elements like foundations, walls, columns, and beams. based on my experience, these spacers offer more stable support compared to ones made from plastic, particularly when the concrete laborers need to walk on reinforcement in elements, like beams and slabs, during construction.
