Anchorage Plate Wedges For Post Tension Prestressed Bearing Plate Wedges
Post-tensioning wedges are normally used in the production of post-tensioned concrete elements. These anchor grips remain in the concrete unit. Apart from the need for good quality, economy also plays a role. Post-tensioning anchor grips are of a quality designed for use some 1 – 20 times, depending on the diam-eter of the wire/strand and the size of anchor grip concerned.
A wedge assembly for post tensioning concrete includes one or more wedges and a wedge ring. Each wedge includes an outer surface having a circumferential groove formed thereon. The wedge ring is adapted to fit into the groove of the wedges and retain the wedges to a strand. The wedge ring including a gap adapted to allow the wedge ring to be installed from the side of the wedges. When installed to the strand, the wedges may form a clearance fit maintained by the wedge ring. At least one wedge may include a guide adapted to assist with the separation of the wedges when installed to the strand.
